Drinking to excess is a recurrent theme, but even the fully sober occasionally commit petty larceny, adultery, get physically violent, demean the staff and other highly regrettable acts. We canvassed private clubs across the United States to unearth such stories, these tragedies that sometimes become comedies with the passing of a few months or years. You can read them all here with schadenfreude, and even submit anecdotes anonymously to our master file for possible future publishing.
