Baker Street "Pub" - No Kilts Allowed

[cizinec]

Well, the first time I decided to put on my kilt and take my lady out, we decided to go the what everyone told me was the best "pub" in OKC, Baker Street "Pub." Since moving to Oklahoma a couple of years ago, we've had to get used to some weird laws, like I can't have a normal pint in a restaurant where my kids can go. No kids allowed in a place that serves anything over 3.2 beer. In order to have a normal beer, my kids can't be there. No problem, we thought we'd just wait a bit. Well, we finally got our night out away from the boys and I thought we'd head to the pub.

As we walked in the front door, a "gentleman" ran up to me and said, "I'm sorry, but we don't allow kilts in the pub." I laughed at his joke as he went on and on and on about appropriate clothes for the "pub". I thought, "My goodness, man, jokes over, take me to my table." My wife then looked at me and said, "He's not joking. He's serious." He explained that they only allow kilts on St. Patrick's Day. I was so shocked, I didn't have the wherewithal to explain to him how stupid that was. He said I was welcome to come back as long as I went home and put on "appropriate" clothes, "like jeans."

My wife, dressed up more than me, said, "No, you won't ever see us again." At which point he let out a sigh of relief.

Now that I've Googled the place, which I should have done before going, I realize it's a chain. Never again.
