Black Cat to ban Flip Flops

Or thongs as I was accustomed to calling them before Sisqo messed it up for me.

 Not sure if they'll actually enforce it, but I think it's a good rule.  I still haven't found a good show-going shoe replacement for my Docs, though.

It's definitely going to be enforced promise.  :)
 
 It is a big liability issue when glasses are smashed all over the ground, drinks are spilled causing the floors to be a little slicker and also getting your toes crushed when people are dancing/moshing.
 
 Really it should come down to common sense, but seeing how people have a hard time reading the signs on the doors for which is in and which is out. I really don't think posting a sign will help either.
 
 Only Kate Moss is allowed to wear flip flops at the Cat. lol

But it's only rubber flip-flops. So it doesn't really matter.
 
 I can continue wearing sandals to a show and ballet flats and other slip on things I don't need to wear socks with.

Could've sworn I read something like this a while ago. I want to say it was in the comments section of that poorly written anti-black cat byt post in which the writer was whining about petty bullshit and saying he'd never return again?
  Don't think he mentioned not being able to wear flip-flops but one of the many "boo black cat! RNR Hotel is better!" drones who commented did but I could be wrong.

Good. Flip flops are turbo anyway. I never leave the house without my Ferragamo's or Bruno's anyway.

i've been pulling for a "no stupid shoes relative to the situation" policy for years now.  the best i've gotten so far is the "sensible shoes" thing in the new faq.
