Here's kind of a funny one from about 25 years ago. I used to hang out at this beautiful room in Statesville, NC. It was in a historic building with 30' ceilings, chandeliers, copper ceilings etc. Absolutely beautiful building.
It had a main floor with around 12 tables, a balcony on the second floor with one main table and a third floor that was a club.
As nice as this building was it was also in a very rough neighborhood at the time and they didn't mess around if you were asked to leave.
So a couple of my buddies wanted to go there and drink. I show them the way and we get there. As soon as we parked I told them not to fuck around in here. If you get thrown out, it is literal. They all kind of chuckled like I was full of shit until we opened the front door.
As soon as we opened the door they tossed someone out of the club on the third floor and he tumbled down three flights of stairs. I just looked at my buddies in semi shock and said don't fuck around in here.
Edit: Before anyone asks this was Broad St Billiards. When I originally went there it was owned by an old farmer. Word was that he covered his business of dropping off product with his plane with his business of having a pool hall.
