But maybe they just saw her at the CHBP hanging out with Vampire Weekend and underestimated her age? http://www.flickr.com/photos/joshc/2704984172/ I think the rule is once they ask for an ID they can’t let you in without one.

I'm hopeful that this will maybe plant a seed in the governor's mind that, hey, maybe we should take a look at the WSLCB's policies and enforcement practices.

I remember that from when I got my servers permit though I can't recall the exact rule. I am pretty sure you ARE allowed to be in a bar without an ID as long as you are of legal drinking age.

I don't blame the bouncer for doing his job from that standpoint, and it appears that Christine took it with a good heart, not pulling the "DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?" card (though one of her party tried).
