Today, I noticed an old bell at the bar so I rang it. It turns out that when you ring the bell, you buy shots for the whole bar. FML

Never ring a bell without knowing the consequences. Especially at a bar.

109 No, because that would mean you can't trick your friends into ringing it!

109 & 139 - My sister has been bar tending for ten years; my uncle has owned a bar for twenty three years. I asked both of them and neither had ever heard of that before. My sister says that the bell at her bar is to announce you're tipping the bar tenders.

OP better be pretty damn fast to attempt that. Having a bar-full of drunks running after you is not a pleasant situation to be in.

You ever been to a bar like that? The bell is in a strategic spot so you can't run away.

That would be a dick move to be childish enough to leave and ignore old bar traditions.

That isn't grammar you tool. It's punctuation.

Punctuation is part of grammar; don't be an idiot.

Maybe I'm trolling a troll, but using more than one exclamation mark at the end of a sentence is also grammatically incorrect. That being said, I also concede. No one gives a ****.

Age old advice: Do not ring and ask questions later; unless you're doing a phone survey, as that's your job. However, this is not a phone survey, so don't.
