I went into the bar, and was refused service because one of the bartenders thought my ID was fake. He then proceeded to laugh showing everyone my " fake ID", and said even if I was 21 he wouldn't serve me. He also never scanned My ID to check it. He then showed me a fake ID example and asked me if there was a difference which there was, because mine is real. Whoever the guy bartender is there he shouldn't be a bartender, and maybe he should do his job correctly before making assumptions. I went there hoping to get a drink not get laughed.
