Bar staff beg customers to 'stop having sex' in photo booths after sickening discovery

A bar has been forced to issue a statement begging randy punters to 'stop having sex' in their photo booths on nights out - as staff are fed up of the cleaning.

NQ64 Arcade Bar announced to its followers on social media that it was proactively trying to get more photo booths in more venues across the UK - but on one agreement.

Workers were compelled to make a 'public service announcement' pleading with customers that they should not perform sexual activities behind the curtains.

But it seemed their plea fell on deaf ears, at their Manchester Peter Street location as just days later they found an abandoned bra.

When fans voiced their disbelief at what was going on, staff confirmed it had happened "too many times sadly".

NQ64, which has boozy arcade machine venues in London, Birmingham, Edinburgh and Cardiff, posted: "We're trying to get as many photobooths into as many bars as we can because you love 'em.

"Grab ya pals, pile inside, get your pics and leave with at least one memory after too many Powerstar Martinis.

"Oh, also, PSA - can you stop giving blowies/having full on intercourse in our 'booths please?

"We're sick of [having to do] constant deep cleans in them. Cheers!"

The astonishing post racked up almost 2,000 likes and comments, and followers were quick to express their horror.

When one customer asked why they didn't have 'security guards patrolling', the venue retorted that it was 'not HMP NQ64'.

One said: "Omg ew. Now I'm a bit scared to use them," and a second put: "How often does something have to happen to become a PSA?"

A third user added: "Nasty people! Just wait until you're home, or if you're really desperate go find an alley somewhere."

A fourth horrified follower said: "Best not have been what was on the seat when we went in."

However the warning received the opposite response from more daring readers, with one tagging another user, saying: "Guess who's dragging you into one of them?"

NQ64 were quick to clap back, saying: "NOT ALLOWED."

A different person added: "I wasn't going to, but thank you @nq64arcadebars for the ideas!"
