Sour_Girl User Info... | the other night my friends drink got spiked when she was at evolution. Does this kind of thing happen alot there? - Fri, 8 Aug 2003 7:21pm | ||
XY-SATAN User Info... | I don't know, about we have a drink and talk about it ! ;) - Fri, 8 Aug 2003 7:56pm | ||
pooetry User Info... | I think it happens a lot. It happened to my friend a couple months ago at Legends. She wound up getting wheeled out across the dance floor in this fluorecent orange lawn chair thing with two seatbelts that crossed on her chest. Then she wound up in the hospital. It sucked but she looked kinda funny getting wheeled out in the chair through 200 half naked preppy kids who were dancing and groping each other across the dance floor. She was okay. Just needed a really long sleep. - Fri, 8 Aug 2003 8:05pm | ||

Jenna User Info... | ya well evo is bad it has that rep for that happening.People get sick drinking those drinks but all the clubs are getting famious for that now it's like you have to gaurd your drinks - Sat, 9 Aug 2003 11:30am | ||
Brandon User Info... | when I go to the bar my drink never really leaves my hand. I might put it on a table while I am standing there, but I dont leave my drinks lying around. Not because it might get drugged, but I have witnessed "randoms" drinking other peoples booze. I finish my bevs before I do pretty much anything, other than cruise the bar. If there are people I know and trust sitting at a table I might leave the drink with them, but thats about it. - Sat, 9 Aug 2003 2:19pm | ||
Zippgunn User Info... | Who would want to hang out at a bar where this kind of shit goes down? Sounds like human garbage at work again. A simple solution: catch them and cut their balls off. - Sat, 9 Aug 2003 6:33pm | ||
some girl... User Info... | Aren't we supposed to be boycotting Evolution? I guess that tread was lost.... - Sat, 9 Aug 2003 6:36pm | ||
Danny Silverfish User Info... | A friend of mine had a horrible experience there due to being drugged - Sat, 9 Aug 2003 8:50pm | ||
Criss Crass User Info... | Hey Sour girl was it Thurs. that your friend was at EVO. My girlfriend put her drink down to go outside there and later that nite she looked totally fucked up. Huge pupils and she was acting a little weirded out. I think someone messed with her drink. Sounds like the same nite. If me or any of my friends see that shit going on, there will be a near death beating. First by the bouncers and then by half the people in the bar. For real!!! - Sun, 10 Aug 2003 1:30pm | ||
sour_Girl User Info... | Ya, it was on thursday night, and she had to work the next day too so she was pretty fucked. the thing is, i really like evo, and i thought that me and my friend were safe from that kind of thing there. we know all the regulars and usually everyone looks out for each other. but when my friend's drink got spiked, none of the staff there belived her and she kinda had to fend for herself... it's pretty sad really... XY-Satan, send me an email if you wanna talk.. - Sun, 10 Aug 2003 4:24pm | ||
FANGU User Info... | it's not just evo, you have to be careful with your drinks everywhere. a friend or a friend of mine went to sugar and her and her boyfriend got drugged and actually passed out, woke up with bruises and hospital braclets on and they had nooo idea what happened. - Sun, 10 Aug 2003 5:03pm | ||
sour_girl User Info... | the main problem for my friend was that she is alergic to GHB and it was very painfull for her. I thought her spin was gonna leap out of her back. that's the worst thing about these people who spike other peoples drinks; they don't care who you are or what might happen to you. Also, if they had slipped it to her later and she had had more to drink, she would probably have gone into cardiac arrest. we're pretty sure we know who did it, but in the end it doesn't really matter. what are two drunk chicks at the bar gonna do about it? - Sun, 10 Aug 2003 5:21pm | ||
JJ User Info... | Dont leave your drinks unattended!!!!! - Sun, 10 Aug 2003 5:25pm | ||
Sour_Girl User Info... | I know, that was a stupid move. but we knew almost everyone there. that's not really a good reason, but it made sense when we were drunk. - Sun, 10 Aug 2003 5:30pm | ||
JJ User Info... | Never mind that people have been spiking them, but what about people that go to bars and drink the unattended drinks?I never put my beer down until it's finished for that very reason. My bum friends are famous for that and so are half the Evo crowd. PS Evo sucks balls anyways! - Sun, 10 Aug 2003 7:30pm | ||
The Grim Reefer User Info... | i've had my water dosed with GHB at a rave a few years back and i was already fucked up enough as it was...raves suck...and so do clubs. Meat Markets cluttered with mad cows. - Sun, 10 Aug 2003 7:53pm | ||
Ty Stranglehold User Info... | A while back I seem to recall someone coming up with some kind of stir stick that changes color when drugs are in the drink. Seems like there's a real market for it. - Sun, 10 Aug 2003 8:01pm | ||
pooetry User Info... | My friend (who got drugged) and I were talking about making a device that locks over your glass so that no one can drug it. It's a long shot idea, but ya never know. There was an article in the TC a while ago that talked about this. I guess it's happening all over the place from house parties to pubs to clubs. I don't ever leave my beer now after seeing my friend totally KO'd on the Legends bathroom floor. - Sun, 10 Aug 2003 10:32pm | ||
JJ User Info... | A coaster has been invented that changes color if your drink has been drugged, but it hasn't been proven to work. I read about it in monday mag or somewhere I think. - Sun, 10 Aug 2003 11:17pm | ||
Sour_Girl User Info... | all of these things have been invented and yet i've never seen them for sale. They should come out of dispensers in the bathroom, like tampons, condoms and cologne. - Mon, 11 Aug 2003 11:53pm | ||
helen von trumpkin User Info... | My boyfreind got drugged a few weeks ago when he was out with a buddy in vancouver. He was totally messed and had no idea what was going on until he woke up in the morning. that shits not cool, if it had had to me who kows what would have happened i am so hypersenstive to drugs, I probably would have had a heart attack. - Tue, 12 Aug 2003 12:14pm | ||
Zippgunn User Info... | Sounds like maybe the Evo staff should have a strict "unattended drink" policy, where if they see a drink all by itself, even for a minute, it gets tossed. It would be interesting to explore the question of how liable the club is for this unfortunate phenomenon. Certainly if any of the staff catch somebody doing such a heinous thing they could have a "separating the asshole from his testicles" policy. I know I would. - Tue, 12 Aug 2003 12:19pm | ||
JJ User Info... | Can you imagine what some people would do if they came back from a smoke and the bar dumped thier drink cuz it sat there for a minute. Not a good idea. Obviously if they see someone tampering with a drink then ya they should call the cops, but come on people. We know this shit is going on, so hey I have an idea.....Finish your drink or leave it at the bar when you are going somewhere. Most of the bartenders I encounter are more than happy to put your drink behind he bar while you are away from it! - Tue, 12 Aug 2003 12:33pm | ||
Zippgunn User Info... | Well, JJ, you can make light of this problem but at some point somewhere somebody's gonna die and then the shit really will hit the fan. If I owned a club and there was even the slightest possibility of my being held liable for such a disaster I would do as I said above. What if you get the bar to hold your drink while you go for a smoke and some shit subsequently spikes your drink (after you get it back) and nobody catches him/her? That's right it will look like the bartender did it. Once the bartender serves you your drink it's your responsibility to keep tabs on it; leave it with a friend or just drink in between smokes/dances (they do dance at Evo, don't they?). - Wed, 13 Aug 2003 11:13am | ||
JJ User Info... | Hey Zippgun, I don't think I was making light of it.!! People have already died from this shit going down. All that I am saying is that be aware that this is happening and FINISH YOUR DRINK before you go for a smoke or go to the can. Dont leave it with friends because lots of times friends are drunk and flaky and take off. Be aware and Be smart. It's pretty flippin simple. Possibly bars could have a sign at the door that say Drinks have been spiked so don't leave drinks unattended. I don't understand why people leave their drinks anyways. Fuck I am such a lush that I can't even put my beer down on the table until the glass is empty!!!! - Wed, 13 Aug 2003 5:30pm | ||
Isobellia User Info... | Yes... Yes it does! they try to deny but they lie - Wed, 13 Aug 2003 6:33pm | ||
glenn tipton User Info... | oldest trick in the book - it used to be lsd - my sister came home at 10ish from the bar one satday nite (oh 25 years ago), said she didnt feel well - about two hours later, came downstairs and climbed into the oven right in front of mom and lil bro ( me!! )" oh - its ok mom, its ok! i just havta,um, you dont understand i HAVE to.... - Wed, 13 Aug 2003 10:49pm | ||
Isobellia User Info... | ya i think my drink got spiked there last night i woke up this morning in my bathtub looked im my purse and somehow managed to have 25 extra dollars that wasnt there before and a pack of smokes and i didnt even bring my bank card ive been feeling like crap all day and i only had three drinks!!! - Sat, 16 Aug 2003 9:09pm | ||
