College students who find themselves out on a date gone wrong at bars in southeastern Florida may be able to turn to the bartender for help.
Posters hanging in the restrooms of about a dozen bars and restaurants in Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale and Jupiter give instructions to women about alerting bartenders if they're in danger or uncomfortable.First, order a drink called the"Owl Shot." Then, depending on what's happening, say one of the three coded phrases displayed on the posters.
Always introduced myself to bartender if out for drinks on my own, thinking they might help watch out for me if needed. Thus is a great idea.
Are you do is use scare tactics you’re the problem not the virus stop trying to scare people
Er, presumably the abusive man will also be able to read this message, which defeats the entire purpose in most instances. Of course, if he's really drunk or stops paying attention for a moment, it could be of use.
Great concept. Thanks to the idiotic media though - way to publicize it constantly and take away from its effectiveness.
I live in the city where this college is and can tell you chances are I know all 10 of these college bars and my friends work at them. The guys that frequent them don’t read CNN and are idiots
OmarKelly I’m curious what a bar is meant to do if a customer says they’re on “an uncomfortable date”...?
How is this a secret if being publicly announced?
I don’t want to criticise this initiative but it’s a disgrace that posters like these are necessary. Can’t we have posters that say if you can’t be a decent human being to other human beings just stay in your own home with yourself for company?
With my luck I'll get tipsy, try to be an old school gentleman and order for my date, and this will be the only drink I can remember.
proud to be an FAU student :)
This is a great idea, but it has 2 draw backs. It warns potential perps. now 2 frequent flier those bars. & if they do? Shows the stupidity of those perps.
Not very secret now is it?
How many Florida University men are reading this right now? 🤔
Probably shouldn’t be publicizing this. What’s the point of a code word if everyone knows it, even the abuser/accuser/etc.
Por otra parte, ojalá resulte la idea, ya que muchas insisten en involucrar a otros en sus problemas personales o inseguridad, si no saben lo que están haciendo, lo mejor es no inventar.
'Danger' being prominent Democrats & their socialist media groupies are in the area?
La educación y orientación se dan en la casa y sigue en la escuela, la falta de valores es lo que provocan los abusos y muchas mujeres los alientan en sus hogares, lamentablemente.
CNN has to be run by idiots. Why publicize this?
And now every predator knows, too. Well done, .
This confirms most women’s preference for non-confrontation (even in dangerous situations) and even more sadly enable jerks to keep on creeping.
Again CNN's Dworkin-Agenda, another fake PR stunt CNN reports. Show the XX's behind this. What should happen in bad dating decisions? XY should pick his dates with more care. Gender feminist bigots are everywhere.
Thanks for blowing the secret way of alerting bartenders CNN
ur not very bright are u
How stupid is this? Like the guy, you're worried about can't read? Just say 'I need staff to walk me to my car' or 'Call the police'. Are Universities teaching our young ANYTHING?
Not a secret anymore.
StacyVoteBlue At least this is something. Good thing gropy predators are usually blind to clear signs that say no or get the hell away from me. This could help a few women.
Is it still a secret?

Women: we are super strong and can do it ourselves! Also women: we need a guy to help us end a date because we can't do it ourselves.

Yeah and the creep behind her can’t read. And why only for women, what if Its the woman who’s the predator tryin to steal baby juice from the poor fella?
Not a secret anymore
