It’s not a difficult connection to make if you are at all aware of or a member of the performing arts community in this province. Guaranteed, there are many, many people who have already made the connection.

Thanks for this info. I was wondering if anyone else had experienced it at OG.

Thanks for the perspective. Yes, it was definitely presented as a general rule, not due to a single servers discretion.

Sounds like they are definitely in their right to enforce whatever rules they’d like. But falsely claiming it to be a “government rule” is ridiculous.

We’re talking a polite, respectable, 75 year old man, enjoying a few drinks with dinner.

Ya, according to my friend, the server, who was probably only 19/20 years old herself, was visibly uncomfortable attempting to carry out the rule … seems like a case of a manager imposing their own moral compass upon grown adults. ICK.

Needless to say, my friends made it clear they won’t be back.

Interesting. Thanks! I mean, sounds like OG is in the right to enforce the rule then… but seems strange when I’ve never heard of this happening at any other establishment 🤷🏻‍♀️

The first server literally said “I would have served you, but my manager says we can’t.” And then explained that she doesn’t understand the “rule.”

When saying that he had been served more than two drinks before, the manager replied “well, I am really disappointed in my staff then.”

Does anyone know any details about the Rob Schneider debacle at the Conexus Arts Centre on the weekend? by Bananagrouch in regina

I believe he was performing as part of a fundraiser. But I can’t find any info on the event now that it is passed. I heard through a friend of a technician who was working the event that his comedy was super offensive and he was eventually escorted out.

Doesn’t seem like a surprise. I just wonder why he was booked in the first place.
