B Drinking is where a club owner/employer permits persons, commonly known as B Drinkers, to solicit patrons for drinks and to accept drinks from patrons in return for a commission ("
cut") or other compensation. Drinks are sold as liquor, but may contain nothing but watered down
Kool-Aid. Patrons pay high prices for these drinks to impress women, when the drinks cost only pennies to make. B Drinking is, basically, a scam designed to bilk poor, lonely
people out of their hard-earned money by having them buy women drinks for a little
bit of attention. B Drinkers may then try to solicit other "services"
like sex,
drugs, etc. It is a common practice for B Drinkers to save their swizzle sticks and turn them in to a club owner at the end of the night to account for their "
cut" of the overpriced drinks. It is an illegal business practice that still runs rampant in coastal Mississippi and Louisiana.
