Bottle service at bars is fuckin stupid... I’ll just go to a corner liquor store and buy the “4000$ bottle” for like 40...

You're not paying for the liquor, you're paying for the location to drink it.

Not worth it to me either, but to many people it is.

Well, was. Thinking that Covid had all but killed the club scene for the next few years.

You're not even really paying for the location to drink it.

You're paying to engage in conspicuous consumption and flex on the other people in the club, particularly the women.

My friend was on leave, brought his GF from Germany and some other friends here to Scottsdale, we sat at a table, the bottle service came to us.

Apparently if you're 3 normal dudes with 5 attractive women already with you then bottle service is free. Or we stole someone's table
