Alcoholic beverages seem to be another thing that people in this area are looking for in addition to alcohol. And there’s been a worrying trend of souvenir hunting for some time. The proprietors of pubs are getting tired of this worrying trend.
To prevent this, a few companies have started taking precautions to ensure the safety of their expensive glassware, some of which can cost as much as $50 each! Some people have started using beer glasses that have an electronic anti-theft tag on each glass that is secured to prevent theft.
To solve this problem, this Belgian bar asks its customers to deposit their shoes if they want a beer! According to the Times Of India report, Dulle Griet in Ghent had the original idea. You have to leave your shoes here as a compromise if you want to drink beer. You’ll find your shoes after you’ve finished your beer, just like Cinderella.
People reportedly went barefoot after leaving their shoes on, but no one has attempted to enter the bar without shoes so far. Note that Dulle Griet accepts all types of shoes and does not discriminate in this regard. Alex Vriendt, owner of Dulle Grient, also said that the rocker is not as expensive as a glass of beer. Shoes are placed in baskets suspended from the ceiling when shoppers drop off their shoes. And trust us, people are willing to leave their shoes behind for a delicious beer.
If you’re in Belgium and want to go drink here, make sure to deposit your shoes before you get a beer!
