10- Wear a religious outfit to get into places
This one’s on me, so I’ll tell you the story.
I was waiting in an endless line to get into a very exclusive club, where they are extremely thorough about who they let in, based on their appearance; people just stand in line for hours, dressed like they’re going to an S&M club (which it kind of is). There was this guy a few meters ahead of me who looked completely average –like someone they’d never let in- but he was wearing a yarmulke. BINGO!
Of course, he was probably actually Jewish, and this was in Berlin, where if you wear a yarmulke you can basically do whatever the fuck you want, because… y’know. But this got me thinking: you can wear any religious outfit to any place, anywhere, that’s hard to get in, and it’ll probably go through, because there’s nothing they want less than people screaming “XENOPHOBIA” at the door.
The ticket was approximately 18 USD, but it works for any place with a selective entrance. And by the way, no, I didn’t get in. Fuck you, Berghain.
