The website of the club, set in Boston’s affluent western suburbs, states that only neat white denim is allowed, and even then only women can wear it.

It says that ‘all denim attire including blue jeans, designer jeans and denim jackets or dresses, regardless of color’ is prohibited. It adds that ‘women may wear neat, not torn, “white denim” or “5 pocket style slacks” in any color (other than blue denim)’. Mr Weeple, an executive at a Boston finance company, and his wife had arrived for an evening drink with a large group of members who were also accused of violating the dress code, though it’s not clear precisely how.

The verbal altercation between the group and Mr Ferry one Saturday night in September became so heated that the police were called amid reports of a fist fight, according to The Boston Globe.

Follow Groucho Marx's axiom and not only avoid ugly incidences like this but also save $45k per year.

I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member.

Nothing says immature-egotistic-jerk like a failure to abide by a reasonable dress code.

So Ferry tried to enforce the dress code, and he was chastised? Why did he apologize?

For those who don’t know, Weston is an ultra-wealthy, very exclusive upper-class snob enclave half an hour west of Boston via the highway.

Well, it only took 12 posts for a like-minded soul to show up. It’s even more interesting that it occurs on Brit paper’s website. So much for them upholding their end as the home of the English language...

Paradoxically, I have about the same opinion of the inhabitants of Ferguson and of this snob club.

I’m guessing they don’t have very many members who are also in biker gangs...

Yes. They used large air pumps to propel the protagonists through a network of piping and then emit them from an array of tiny holes.

I’d pay good money to watch the two groups fight it out in a no-holds-barred battle on the streets of Boston, though.
