Cell phones?

They aren’t enforcing the cell phone rule anymore. I’ve been 4 times now and every time they’ve felt it on me and let me in anyways.

TCabot but do they verbally ask you if you have a phone on you?

They dont even check IDs or hold onto IDs. Just write your first name on a brown paper bag and put it in the case. All you do when leaving is provide your first name. That could easily lead to a mixup or someone abusing it to start stealing phones.

Say someone leaves their phone in their car, comes into the club normally, then when leaving pretends they had a phone in the case, and gives their first name.

They could even introduce themselves to other guys at the club to obtain their first names that way.

At least if the security guards were willing to keep your ID, they could ask for first and last name and compare the pic on the ID to the person picking up the phone. But theyre ghetto so theyll never think of something like that.

I suspect even the parking lot they charge money for, isnt a parking lot they actually own. Im guessing if you refuse to pay the most they can do is tell the doorman about it and not allow you to enter the club. I doubt a church would lend their parking lot to a club.

@RMD - no. They don’t even ask. In the pat down they clearly feel it then move on.

Thanks guys, this is helpful!

Went in last week wed-fri. never asked about a phone. Errbody in there had theres. its not being enforced currently

Security and rules at EI are ever-changing, so you never know what rules you will face. Even when they supposedly enforced the no-phones rule, I saw guys with phones. If you're going to take a phone, though, please be respectful and angle it in a manner which does not give the impression you are recording or taking photos.
