who tried to go to the Irish Harp in Sheraton that they were told they "should" arrive by 8 if they wanted to get in. They got there at 9 and got in, but they knew the manager, I think....

What do you guys think this whole club membership thing is all about? Are they trying to regulate/inhibit underage people getting into clubs? Trying to control Qataris drinking? Just trying to extract a miniscule amount of money from heathen infidels?
