Default Bar Bans Colors

Bar Bans Colors - Rocker Vince Neil spent years cultivating the image of a happy-go-lucky Harley-Davidson man, but the people who run his new Dr. Feelgood's bar in West Palm already have made local motorcycle groups mad.

Well, it's the bars right to ban them, and the bikers right not to patronize. There you have it, America in action[sm=americanasmiley.gif]

I totally support all clubs.

But I've seen too many times that a member doesn't particualy care for someone wereing a "support" shirt or a pin with certain colors on it and seen the poor guy get his a$$ stomped for it.
The thing is, I believe most members should handle situations like that in a different manner.

We should ALL just get along

I actually find it ironic that it Vince Neil's club that's banning the colors!

One of these days I'm gonna ask a question about that, but it'll start alot of chit when I do, so I'll have to do it when I have more time.

I agree.

I've been to bars that require collared shirts and even sometimes require them to be tucked in. I know plenty of bars that don't allow camo, baggy Jerseys, wife beaters, hats, bandanas and on and on.

Basically, if you don't like the rules, you don't have to patronize.

Yep. And I cannot blame any owner that bans colors. Unfortunately colors, MC gang's territorial behavior and such brings about violence. Violence is bad for business.

Alot of businesses just want to stay neutral. Right or wrong it probably helps cut down on problems. JMHO
