Greek club sues tourist over $74K party bill

A Greek nightclub has launched an investigation into a man who forgot to pay for his party. The partygoer did not pay for a huge amount of drinks, sushi, and two bottles of expensive champagne. In total, the club lost over $74,000.

The vacation season is in full swing. Hotel and restaurant owners in popular tourist spots are especially delighted. Bars, restaurants, cafes, and nightclubs near beaches, lakes, monuments, and mountains are flooded daily with tourists looking for a place to relax or have fun. Although most guests behave impeccably, occasionally, venues have to open the notebook where the blacklist is kept.

The Greek islands are besieged by tourists every year. One of the most popular is Mykonos, located in the Cyclades Archipelago. On this island, just over 39 square miles, there are many restaurants, cafes, and nightclubs. Among party spots, SantAnna, a venue in Platis Gialos, is extremely popular.

Last week, the police came to SantAnna at the request of the owner. It was all due to the behavior of one of the guests, who forgot to pay the bill. According to the "Greek Reporter" portal, the man is a businessman from Israel who was partying in the club with his friends. During the party, the Israelis drank many drinks, ordered a huge amount of sushi, and also ordered two bottles of vintage champagne worth $31,700 each. One of the bottles, once opened, was thrown into the pool located on the club premises.

In total, the bill issued to the Israeli businessman amounted to $106,000. However, the man only paid part of the huge amount. The mysterious man settled the price for one bottle of champagne, which was $31,700. He then left the SantAnna club, leaving an unpaid bill of $74,000 behind. The police were called to the scene and plan to question the Israeli businessman. It is not known whether the man will face any further consequences besides being required to settle the payment.
