I was never able to pull off the underage trick at a bar. I didn't even try. I weighed about a hundred pounds when I was seventeen and I looked like I was 12. I was either going to get beat up, laughed at or both, so there wasn't much motivation. I was regularly carded for both booze and cigarettes until I was 30 years old so I had to miss out on that rite of tres-passage.
