Ok most of my group is 20 but some are 18..i am 20 but have a couple id's that say im 22 and 23 that look like me and are real iowa id's and wondering if that would work for beer and liquor at least.. possibly kegs(long SHot?) And how strict they would be if we had our coolers on the beach? i would have my fake but real ID's but dont know the strictness..all my friends are smart and wont act like idiots ever.. So whats everyone think??

Well ive gone 4 of the past 5 springbreaks and live in iowa city as well and one thing for sure is the fake ids arent gonna work like they do in our city. Ive seen doorguys actually make someone take out their colored contacts bc they didnt match her id.....Everyone has coolers on the beach so you have nothing to worry about then....and no one is going to come up to you on the beach and ask to see id...atleast in my 4 years there i have yet to see that ever happen

So these are actual valid ID's of people that look like you? Those have actually always worked for me and my friends. The ones that won't work are actual fake ID's. The bouncers will spot those a mile away. If they truely look like you (same color hair, eyes, height), you should be fine. You can drink on the beach and in the hotel with no problems. No one ever ID's on the beach or in the hotel. If you are making a scene or something, the sheriffs might approach you, otherwise you are fine. They won't pay you any attention.

I would do your partying outside the clubs. Bouncers are trained very well at finding the fakes. Also note that if you are under 21.. you still cannot be drunk inside the clubs. Even if you drink outside then come in. You will be wasting your money because they will and can toss you out.

And keep your booze out of the parking lots. You will be asked to dump it out. Two tips to keep you out of trouble and from wasting money.

It doesnt work too well having ppl buy you drinks either inside the club because they will be on you in a second...before everyone in our group turned 21 we were thrown out of spinnaker several times for buying minors drinks

I have never had a problem with being drunk off my *** in the club underage. Maybe I have been lucky. For the second point he is right if your gonna drink, well you better drink, do it in your room or on the beach.

That answers my question from the other thread, thanks!

Must have been luck. Because most clubs don't let drunk minors in the clubs.

Yeah, I'm reluctant to use my fake fake, I can't tell the difference between it and a normal ID i even have a 2nd form but I'm sure they know things I don't. Last year we would just pound some shots right before getting to the parking lot and would be good for a couple hours. Handing off drinks worked 2 out of 3 night for a couple shots but the other time my buddy got kicked out.

But on a side note:Iowa people?! Some of my boys and I from ISU will be down there staying at the Chateu Motel (17th-22nd) what about you guys? and we are all around 20 so if any of you guys want to party it up, hit me up!

I used a fake ID down there all week last year. Walmart, liquor stores, gas stations, La Vela, Spinnaker, Harpoon Harry's, Tiki Bar, never got questioned on it at all.

Only one time did a bouncer not let someone in that was in our group because he was drunk and underage before we got to the club.

And the only places we have problems with buying other people drinks is at the big clubs, like Spinnaker and La Vela. It's alot easier to get away with it elsewhere.

Hmmm, Ill have to memorize your display pic so when Im working the door at Harpoons I can spot ya...

jk of course, I prob. wont work there this year..

So anyone here using fake IDs ever gone down to Dallas, TX to a place called Kopy Kat Services? I guess they have really authentic looking IDs...but how do you think a fake fake would work with the bouncers down in Panama City?
