    I don’t see the age restriction as too far different from senior clubs (minus the gender split; do nonbinary folks get in at 30 or 35?) so that doesn’t bother me. IDs being verified by a St Louis County officer instead of an employee of the restaurant does. Why are taxpayers of all ages footing the bill for a private business?

      The cop isn’t likely officially on duty, it’s likely a detail shift that’s little more than bonus income for cops. Many police forces require private business that may be dangerous to hire off duty police.
