A chain pub in Tokyo called Tori Yaro has drawn a line in the sand: No geezers are welcome at their location. The posted sign reads: "Pub for under-40 only.” The rule of thumb is, as long as one person in the group is 39 or under, others will be admitted with them. “With older customers, they tend to make a lot of complaints about the restaurant being too noisy and such, so we decided to limit who’s coming in,” said Tori Yaro PR spokesman Toshihiro Nagano. The truth of the matter is that management will allow over-40 people in if they’re okay with the noise level and “have the spirit of a 20-something.” Apparently, the sign is to ward off any true geezers.
