I was hesitant to go to the Brant House on a long overdue night with the girls after hearing several bad recommendations from people of all walks of life and reading their negative reviews a few websites. However, for the sake of my friends, I decided to keep an open mind. Now, here's the part where I accept full responsibility. My feet got tired and for about two to three minutes, I decided to sit on the floor with another friend. Not my smartest moment, I'll admit. However, after my minute or two was up, I stood up again and went right back to dancing. While dancing with my friends, a bouncer came up to me and said I had to leave for being passed out on the floor. At this point I was not even sleepy so I was a little confused. I said I didn't understand and I wanted proof that I was passed out. He obviously didn't have proof because he threatened to find three other bouncers and "escort" me out of the bar. I asked him to wait a minute to get a friend to go with me. By now four bouncers were surrounding me, and since they very well could not force me to go anywhere against my will, they threatened to call the cops for trespassing. I asked to speak to a manager and they would only give me a business card. I only needed to be asked not to sit on the floor and I would have respected their wishes. I felt their behavior was inappropriate and feel compelled to let other people know about my experience. If you are a young single woman going here, be careful. These bouncers attempted to isolate me from my friends and kick me out on the street in the cold in the middle of the night. I had to argue with them to let me pick up my jacket. All I have to say is watch your back.

just another meat market; all the girls look the same (ridiculously high heels that they can't walk in, fake eyelashes, and cheap clubbing dresses from le chateau) ... girls can't dance by themselves without being grabbed left, right, and center by the desperate guys.
being somebody who goes to clubs solely for the music and to dance, i would never return there.
