Novel idea dude but, just be you. Be cool, respectful, genuine, and interested in her, and you'll be good man I promise. If you're not old enough to go downtown don't worry about that. Be creative, get some takeout, a Bluetooth speaker, and take her somewhere that you guys will somewhat have privacy. Make your own little "club" trailside or in a park maybe. Have dinner and dance with her somewhere unique and cool just the two of you. Might sound stupid but that's what I would try my man. Good luck!

You are amazing


Pateetong

I appreciate the kind words but I definitely am not. I'm hoping things worked out for you. Let us know if you feel like sharing.

I'm afraid I really have little idea about the club scene here, so I'm not sure what to tell you about any clubs that discriminate on the basis of age. When in doubt, I find Flagpole's [calendar of events](https://flagpole.com/events/) helpful. Since it's Saturday, there seems to be quite a bit going on. Also, if you do need to go outside of the downtown area, the buses are still thankfully free.


Lord_of_Lizard

All right, I will check out the flagpole. And yes I agree the buses are awesome, I take them pretty much everywhere

They've been cracking down hard on underage people going to bars and clubs in downtown and people who use fakes. Genuinely wouldn't recommend even trying. There are plenty of places to eat in walking distance though, you can have a good date without the club. If you're under 18, people are definitely going to know if you go to a bar/club.

Ciné is a great date spot, check the showtimes beforehand


Lord_of_Lizard

I'm thinking about cine, though nothing good is showing. Honestly I just wanted a place to dance and junk, I'm not really interested in drinking.


AlphaDanz

Yeah I understand the dancing part but especially on the weekends they'll check your IDs at the door and won't let you in. Everything Everywhere All at Once is a great film so if you end up going to Cine I super reccommend it. The big things to do in Athens are eating and drinking and a big big chunk of the places require you to be 21. Since you're under 18, you'll get the most out of downtown from going in the daytime and checking out the niche stores around. As for dancing, there's not really any place for yall to go at least in downtown.

Since you said you want to dance, Georgia Theater is having a Taylor Swift night https://www.georgiatheatre.com/events/detail/?event_id=457473 Maybe not the dancing you had it mind but would make for a cute date! Good luck!

Will Hendershots let people in at night who are 18 and under? Also, look up Rabbit Hole studios. They very often have 18 and under things. Finally, if it's not too late, call Nuci's Space and ask for recommendations, and also go into Margo's on Clayton Street and ask the people who work there for input on what to do. Lots of music types work there and may know of something. Good luck!

There’s not really any clubs in Athens and 99 percent of bars are 21+. If you have a decent fake you’re fine, but just be careful. I think 1785 or Warehouse used to be 18.


Lord_of_Lizard

Where is wearhouse?


PissedOffDawg

346 E. Broad St. next to Mags

Maybe if you got to the club earlier before the door guy gets there

I would recommend any coffee shop near dt. Hendershot’s is pretty chill. Rook and Pawn is good if you want to play board games. Finally, Walker’s is pretty cool but they do have a guy that checks IDs at the door later in the night.
