Then there was also the other long-timer bouncer Phil, whom I ran into working at Sonar (or whatever its called) last X'mas. After 9 years he still remembered me from the Wett Bar days lol.

My friend and I were waiting for our car in front of the club when we see two asian guys getting pushed out by the bouncers. The two asian guys are swearing and saying they'll blow shit up. A few mins later we get our car and we pull up in the alley which was behind the parking lot which was across from Wett bar, we pull behind a black ML55 and we see this one asian guy get out with a gun and he runs to the front entrance and starts shooting but no ones standing in front of the club, runs back and gets back in the ML. Pretty scary stuff seeing how we were in front of the club moments earlier.
Black dude? We use to call him Robocop because he would be rocking what look like a bullet proof vest all the time lol. | Wow, was this 2001 and there was a UBC fashion show before? If so I helped organize that one and was there when it happened!

Originally Posted by bcrdukes Close to 10 years ago, before all these problems surfaced, Boss (as we know it today) used to be Wett Bar. Those were some good times and the older crowd will remember. But then the bar was sold and was renamed to Atlantis. During the beginning stages of "Atlantis" the club was bumpin' every weekend. I would see the usual RS crew there on Friday and Saturday nights - everybody was there to have a good time. Everybody left the attitude at home. I'm confident that RS old timers like fukamoto, Ch28, CRiXy, Si Ed and a handful of others can attest to this.
Sooner than we had realized, our clubbing days were over. Our priorities changed. We were in 3rd and 4th year and worried about what to do after grad. This was the period when Atlantis was referred to as "ATL." This was when all the bad apples started to pop up. Fights broke out. More and more underaged girls on the loose. Gangsters on every corner watching your every move. It started to get uglier and uglier until people had to die, and this is when Atlantis became Boss. Of course, nothing has changed. I'm glad I don't go clubbing anymore.
Oh, and this was when cover used to be $8/$10. | +1
Everything use to be in check when BLADE was working there. I'll never forget the first time I stepped out of there and saw this Wesley Snipes lookalike standing there. Big black guy, short cropped hair, black shades, and black vest with his arms crossed. I thought I stepped onto some sort of Blade shoot hahahaha
It's really sad to see how Vancouver nightlife has deteriorated into this giant mess where groups of guys are always out there to try and 'prove' something by senselessly beating somebody just because they can.
