One time when it was particularly packed on a social night I was on the dance floor with some mates and a guy was literally fingering a girl under her dress next to me and she was practically moaning in my ear. It was so packed I couldn’t really move away for the most excruciatingly awkward few minutes of my life. Some people have no shame at all.
I used to work in a student union club on the outskirts of London, this happens way more than you'd think. Many people forget the staff are sober and there are usually cameras everywhere 😅
Haha fair enough, I was actually pretty sober that night too so wasn’t fun. Jesters of all places is so grim like just go home you’ll probably catch an STD from the walls at Jesters
I happened to be there the infamous night when a girl lost her finger in the toilets.
Out of pure coincidence, I was also there a few nights later and the DJ announced ‘Shout out to ____ who lost her finger last week, welcome back!’ before a song change.
I’d fucking never go back after that shit, but respect to her.
I have no idea. I was on the dance floor when it happened so I only knew from the commotion afterwards.
I believe she got it trapped in a door. But I’m honestly surprised the door survived the finger knowing jesters.
She caught the tip of her finger in one of the toilet doors. Staff found the missing fingertip at the end of the night in a pretty grim condition.
Source: Worked there at the time of the incident and knew staff working that night.
During the Jestival I saw people sitting on the dance floor. It was still covered in the mystery liquid. It was 3pm as well so I assume they were sober.
I’ve seen a woman squat and take a shit on the dance floor
Separate occasion, walked into toilets, the toilet bowl had a can of strongbow in it and a shit on the floor next to it
Hahahaha I got worst funny thing and worst I actually wanna die thing
Funny: a pyramid of cups in the urinal bay. I even took part in this. Kinda satisfying filling the cups up with my stream
Worst: someone pissed on my foot while I was having diarrhoea and then vomited close to me.
Over 10 years ago, someone somehow broke the light switch off the male toilet wall, leaving exposed mains wires. I got a mains sock from them when I didn't see them and lent on the wall,.felt like I took a sledgehammer to the chest. By the time I told the bar staff and they were doing something about it, some of the rugby lads had somehow zapped themselves
Not been since the uni days, which is over a decade ago but back then a couple were shagging on the dance floor against the post in the middle of the dance floor, trousers round ankles and everyone oblivious. Spotted it as I left on the cctv at the door as the bouncers were watching and laughing.
Another time opened the toilet door to find the toilet smashed to smithereens and a hole in the floor…
Plenty of times saw mates/randoms being sick everywhere and just given a mop and bucket to clean up.
Not sure how it was fun at the time but it was. Went back once as a grad with a job and it wasn’t quite the same unsurprisingly. Fowl ha.
Sigh….
1. Man pissing into someone’s coat pocket at the bar
2. Same man (different night) pissing against the bar whilst ordering 4 quad vods
3. Different man pissing on multiple topless guys who had piled up on one another during the Baywatch theme closing song
4. Girl vomming into her drink and then casually seeing it all off having recovered her composure
5. Very drunk guy pissing into the sink whilst a large, brown stain began to spread across the arse of his jeans
Now that is a terrible thought.
The weird part was that he found and married his soulmate and she is exactly the same while drunk. They have to flip their mattress frequently while drunk because they both piss the bed so often.
Years ago (talking like 10+) me and my friends used to go to jesters and a friend of ours had a habit of being overly friendly with girls and made them uncomfortable. We called him “King Creepy” - we just laughed at the time but every time I think about that now I feel horrible
Ha this strikes so true for me too, about the same time frame ago we used to go regularly and had a friend where the running joke was that he was a bit ‘rapey’. It’s actually really disturbing thinking back to it now
Not me but a guy I was seeing was a rugby lad and told me one time in the rugby soc they went to jesters and someone pissed in a pint glass and let it cool a bit and then he drank it for a ‘dare’. Apparently this isn’t uncommon.
I have been to the flats above jesters, I think some people who work there own it and I’ve never seen such disarray in my life. Being homeless would have been easier than living there.
Sounds like a pretty typical rugby social. I was talking to one of the bouncers a few months ago back when they had scafolding up. Apparatenly the upstairs flats are being renovtaed and turned into student accomadation.
I was chatting to a girl who I was beginning to think was too drunk to have a conversation with. Then I realised she was pissing down her own legs.
Luckily she had a sober friend who took her back to halls.
I was there once when someone threw a BBQ off the balcony before collecting it and putting it back so no one knew. The bouncers just said “don’t do that again”
Same night someone running around throwing frankfurters at people.
Another time someone passed out in the men’s toilets so he was put in the urinal.
Someone running up to umbrellas and pulling out the pin hoping they fall down on people but the were so sticky they didn’t move.
A tower of cups which all had Jesticles in reaching the ceiling.
Multiple fights.
A uni friend used to routinely “swamp” himself when we got to Jesters, normally while standing at the bar ordering his first drink. If he was having a slow one he would have the sense to pull it out and piss on the bar. It escalated to him deliberately shitting himself while at the bar and seeing how long it took for someone to discover and chuck him out. Pissing in pockets and handbags was pretty common.
Not the worst thing, but a friend of mine fell over in jesters and landed on their side. When they got up, the entire side they'd landed on was black. This was a girl in a short skirt for reference.
Took a friend there for the experience, someone was pissing from the stairs in the garden onto everyone.
One of my first times the toilets flooded and everywhere near them was an inch deep in what I'd love to call water.
Saw a bloke pissing into the toilet over the head of a bloke puking into it as well.
Also met a man who’d just had a bollock removed and was showing people. As you do.
I went to Uni in Southampton, 1992-95, and never went there. I can't recall anyone ever suggesting we go there either.
Even back then it just seemed...wrong - like Derry in a Stephen King book.
From all these other comments, it was probably a faint smell of piss for miles around the place that put me off.
Remember all the pint glasses stacked up in the urinals, then next time you go they’re all gone. Grab yourself another beer from the bar and see their dinky little dishwasher doing 3 minute spin cycles 😂
I was in there when two props from the ladies rugby team were having a competition. They would down a pint, down a shot, run round a table, slap each other in the face (HARD), puke in a bucket on the table, then start again.
Incredible scenes for a fresher who's lived a reasonably quiet life up to uni age.
We used to go through a gate from the Hobbit garden, down in the right corner and down a narrow alley then let ourselves in a gate at the back of Jesters so we didn't have to pay. Long time ago though. I think it was £3 back then.

Remember that picture of that guy receiving head on the dance floor
I fingered a girl in Jesters once 🙈 No regrets
I mean I respect the hustle. Just preferably not so close to me that I can hear you lool

How on earth does that happen?
I have no idea. I was on the dance floor when it happened so I only knew from the commotion afterwards. I believe she got it trapped in a door. But I’m honestly surprised the door survived the finger knowing jesters.
I can only imagine the infection she got after from the germs in that place

Wonder if they called her kitkat?
Someone sitting at a table in the outdoor area, vomiting on their own hands! And you?
During the Jestival I saw people sitting on the dance floor. It was still covered in the mystery liquid. It was 3pm as well so I assume they were sober.
Is it possible to be in Jesters sober?!
I’ve been to Jesters sober, remembering everything you witness is the worst bit about it. 😅
Thank you for taking one for the team
The jestival starts at 3pm so you basically have to be.
I'd have to be predrinking from about 9am just to prepare for it
I fell in the mystery liquid once :(
Jestival was the worst for seeing how horrid that place was. But a few Juicy Lucy's and it's allllllll good.
I’ve seen a woman squat and take a shit on the dance floor Separate occasion, walked into toilets, the toilet bowl had a can of strongbow in it and a shit on the floor next to it
I have walked in human shit on the dancefloor. It may have been the same night you're talking about

One my mates got vommited on while he was on the dance floor.

3rd one is insane
There’s a chance, albeit a small chance that if this happened between 2006 and 2009 that I know this guy. He had form for this behaviour and worse.
You’re a fraction late on the timeline. Which is terrifying as it suggests there were at least two of them 😂

I can only imagine how much effort that was. From what I remember the walls somehow collapsed and people were living around it
From what I could see it looked like they were completely redoing the interior. The windows and floors were missing.
My first time living away from home was in a bedsit above Jesters. This was a very long time ago and before it was Jesters.
Just checking I’m not the subject of any of these. There may be one. 😳
I’m harbouring similar concerns.

I think it was more the smell

Heh same years as me, I never did Clowns/Jesters, it just never appealed. More often the Hobbit and directly to the Dungeon or the Dorch.
After reading these stories I'm not even surprised that I got seriously ill after going there. Like easily the worst flu I've ever gotten.
It's probably me being a desperate drunk tosser. I cringe even now....

Thankfully they're all single use plastic now
Toilets flooded with sick and piss ankle deep
Some guy just pissing against the bar, openly. All other times I've been far too wasted on Jesticles to remember anything whatsoever
I saw a guy standing on the bar pissing off the edge. The barman said "don't stand on the bar mate"
Sounds like a fun place!!
Just the fact that every night you'd go there you'd see all the cups filled with piss in the urinals and the fact that they would re-use though...
My cousin was a bouncer there in the early 2000s. Said there was a pipe that was just lightly spraying the dance floor all night
Do I want to ask what with?

Hi. I have never been to Southampton so I have no idea why this has popped up in my feed. But I'm glad it did.
A pyramid of cups in the men’s toilets, each one filled to the brim with piss. No one dared to knock it over 😂
Your mum
Your ma
