According to Wunderground sources, taking your jacket off is now the best way to fool bouncers.
Reports from within the bouncer community have revealed that bouncers are “powerless” to spot people they have previously refused after they take their jackets off.
“It’s a really weird one, us bouncers find it completely impossible to spot someone after they take their jacket off,” confirmed our source, who asked to remain anonymous out of fear for his life after breaking the Bouncers Code. “It’s almost as if people turn invisible to us once they take them off. You’re pretty much guaranteed to get into the club if you do it.”
“I’ve been trained in face recognition skills but once someone takes their jacket off all of my training goes completely out the window,” revealed the unnamed bouncer. “It’s not just jackets either, taking jumpers off, brushing your hair to the side, putting on a different accent and basically anything that you think might be a good idea when you’re steaming drunk are all absolute gold against bouncers. We’re completely powerless against any of those things.”
Wunderground also spoke to Darren, who regularly gets refused from night clubs, about the best ways to fool bouncers, “I discovered the old take your jacket off trick back in 2007 after I was refused from my local club for being too drunk.”
“I’ve probably had to resort to it about twenty times since and it’s never failed me. When a bouncer tells you to go and have a coffee or sober up what he’s really saying is ‘fuck off mate your pissed’, so in those instances you need to go, take your coat off and come back ten minutes later, it’ll work every time.”
