What is the name of your state?
California
I didn't really know where to post this. This seemed like the closest match.....
Anyway. Is there an official rule of some kind that states a bar has to accept a US passport as a valid form of id to enter a bar and/or drink??
I only have my US passport and didn't think it would be a problem getting into bars, but recently, every bar I go to has some problem with it. I know it's the most valid form of ID you can get, but they don't seem to know the same thing as me....
A couple have told me they wont accept it because it doesn't have your height, weight, hair color, etc. on a passport like a license does. One even told me that it couldn't be accepted because a US passport isn't valid in the US, only in other countries. People's stupidity never ceases to amaze me.
Any suggestions on what I can say/do to these door guys? Or is it strictly up to each individual bar?
