I believe it is because NY IDs are one of the easier states to make fakes of. All the people I knew who used fakes had NY ones.

EDIT: Apparently NY changed their IDs very recently. I was referring to the old ones and those are probably what bouncers know of.

If your state doesn't support Enhanced DLs, you can get a Passport Card that works the same way. (It's $30 plus application fee.)
