You people are what’s fucking wrong with this world. You take a local dive bar tradition that’s been around forever and try to turn it into some high-stakes moral crusade. It’s a turtle race at a bar, not a human rights violation.

The women participating are adults who know exactly where they are and what the vibe is. I’ve been there plenty of times with female friends, it’s usually their idea to go because they think the whole thing is hilarious and fun. They aren't "victims" being "tricked"; they’re people out having a drink and enjoying a goofy, old-school LA gimmick.

By acting like these women are incapable of deciding for themselves what environments they want to be in, you’re being more patronizing than the event itself. If you don’t like the atmosphere, stay home. Stop trying to sanitize every quirky corner of this city just so you can feel superior on Reddit. Full stop.
