  • The entry/door staff are essentially running their own racketeering organization by aggressively soliciting bribes to skip a line that I believe they keep long to "make it worth it to pay to skip it" ... I was greeted with "ID please, it's going to be a while in this line, or if you pay us, we can let you skip it" ... I offered 25 CAD for 2 well dressed and socially normal males and was told that wasn't enough. No problem, so we waited in line. I heard him continue to ask everyone for a bribe saying things like "this is just how it works" to other potential patrons. Then, the line barely moved (this is around 11pm). The line really only moved when people waiting in line verbally indicated that they were too fed up and left, or were too fed up with the line and gathered enough money for an acceptable bribe. There are very attractive both females and males in the line, this is not for un-cool people, it's strictly about the money that likely doesn't even go to the venue. I overheard a female indicate that the line is "a show in order to make people want to bribe more" ... obviously if the line is moving quickly, the market for bribes goes down. I come from a culture where it's normal to bribe, but not normal to solicit and ask ... I really feel like the door staff has taken the bribe thing too far at this venue and are basically running a business within a business. Once inside, it's not a bad place, but I would generally avoid as there are a lot of other bars nearby that you won't have to deal with this frustration and enter in a reasonable amount of time without being hassled or paying an exorbitant bribe.
