Canadian bar patron gets 'ticket' for drinking responsibly: 'Great idea!'
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}A bar patron in Canada was recently rewarded for drinking responsibly — via a “ticket” that was left on the windshield of the customer’s car.
The patron, who wisely refrained from driving home after a night of drinking at The Wismer House in Port Elgin, Ontario, took to Reddit the next day to share a photo of the “ticket,” which actually turned out to be a $10 gift certificate from the bar.

The Wismer House (or The Wiz, as it’s also known) even added a short apology to the notice, along with a suggestion for alleviating any hangover the recipient may be experiencing with a Bloody Caesar cocktail.
“Sorry if you thought this was a legit parking fine. Might we suggest a delicious Caesar after you’ve retrieved our vehicle? Could be just what the doctor ordered,” the notice read.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Commenters were quick to commend the bar for the idea.
“Great idea!” one wrote.
“Of course this is Canada. Not only do they give you $10, but they also apologize,” joked another.

Obviously, the patron, too, was thrilled by the bar’s gesture.

“They keep doing things like that, then [it's] justified.”
