Forget a British passport, have you ever tried to use your US passport to buy alcohol or get in to a club?

id say about 60% of the time its denied, mainly because the bouncers/bar tenders haven't seen one, or are not sure about them. they gladly take state id's or drivers licences because there listed in their book of state ID's.
