Piss take... Heathrow airport
Piss take... Heathrow airport
Take this for a laugh
Heathrow airport, oh "SORRY SIR IM GOING TO HAVE TO ASK YOU TO SPEAK TO THE MANAGER"...
OH?.... you what... "OH THE MANAGER WANTS TO SPEAK TO YOU"
Why.... "No OUTSIDERS are allowed in this arcade...."
ERM YOU WHAT?!?! NO OUTSIDERS??!!
"Yes only taxi drivers and airport workers are allowed"
Oh well I don't see any signage of said fact...
He then point to the number on the sticker on a machine "Phone this number to speak to the manager..."
"You've gotta be kidding me, I aint ringing up no one mate, oh and get out the way of that machine (Mono.here and now - proceed to first board jp it, his face a picture of course ;P)"
I then have a discussion with him about what if I'm picking someone up, "OH NO SIR THAT IS STILL NOT ALLOWED"#
Now I don't mean to be racist but he was asian and I could have easily made racist remarks about "OUTSIDERS" off my own, which I was rather tempted to do
Next time, Im going with a taxi placard, lets see how he likes that eh :P
Ps: As an aside I take it as the HAN was there 1st board others have been barred from there, as Ive seen many a player there....

I think if you made a comment about him being an outsider he would have said 'at heathrow, you're the outsider'! Never in my life have I felt as much of an ethnic minority in my own country as when I'm at heathrow.
I've also had a run in with a paki guy at heathrow.
Was picking up the mrs from her flight from Texas in september and had half an hour to kill so checked out the arcade. There was a rr/star wars clone which I found to be chipped so onto the h&n...I had a bottle of water and I was proper thirsty so was devastated when it fell down the back of the monopoly. Cue Asian guy running out going mental at me for drinking in the arcade, he pulled the machine out and I grabbed my water from a huge puddle where about half it's contents were now. The guy was almost screaming at me so I just started to walk out when he said I couldn't walk out as I hadn't cleaned it up! I just told him that was what he got paid his minimum wage for and calmly exited the arcade.
Great customer service!

Bored of the grind.
i AMa racist and id have beat his fucking head in... no -- only kidding...
do you reckon they get a lot of grief in these arcades? whenever ive been past, theres not more than a couple of people in them.. apart from that guy at brum who puts stuff in the coinslots and waits for people to put money in and leave, then pokes the coins out with a spoon handle...

Not had any problems myself, apart from having to leave at closing time. Cousin always got late flights when he was visiting! lol
But I know one of my mates has had annoying run ins. If they don't like you winning, they'll ring the cops. They have no idea how to run an arcade so shouldn't be around in the first place.

im supposedly barred from brum airport ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, fucking gamegrid jobsworth cocksucker twat area manager chris somethingorother,,,,,,,,,, seen me skill up a cabin fever and simply didn't like it ,,,,,,,,,, came out with '' if you've not got a boarding pass , you have to leave , were not insured to have you in here , or any part of the airport'',,,,,,,,, yet he never asked anyone else in the arcade to produce one ,
went back a few times since , just for the regular immigrant attendant to eventually tell me that head office said im allowed in the airport (no insurance bollocks) but not allowed to go in the arcade .
hope gamegrid fold , and that twat cant get another job
