I remember just a few months ago bars and clubs being super packed and now there’s hardly anybody at them. What’s going on?

Edit: I’m in the Los Angeles area

    No money and too expensive. Your option for water is sold in a can that costs $5. Alcoholic drinks are almost double the price now. And at least for my city, the bar districts are now just full of assholes who post-pandemic seemed to forget how to act in public especially when alcohol is involved.

      Iirc, in the US (assumed due to “$”), any establishment that serves food or drink is required to provide free tap water.

      Also, apply inflation to the fact that bars, and especially clubs, have always been expensive.

      Also, “clubs are full of assholes” has been a meme since at least the 80s.
