I've never seen that happen before other than once in Aberdeen after our recent 0-0 game, and I'm a fairly regular customer of spoons across Edinburgh/Glasgow.

However, when it happened I didn't mind. I imagine anyone at the tables we queued past weren't happy but I was content to know I'd be served in turn. One for the pet peeves thread is when the bar tenders have no idea who is next (not their fault) and you and another customer both know you were there first but they start shouting their order ahead of you.
Sad days indeed when the bar staff don't know who's next. It was a skill all bar staff had at one time but no more. There's loads of things now become common which piss off us oldies (OK maybe just me) Automatically filling a glass to the top with ice. Pouring a whole bottle of tonic in your gin without asking. Next time you ask for two drams and they're coming out the same optic, pay attention to how quickly the second one is filled. Has the optic had time to fill properly?
