Why would someone wear dark sunglasses in a dimly lit bar?

Well, they could have some eye problems, for one. Or could have had their pupils dilated for another. Or they could be blind. Or they could just be trying to be “cool.”

Recent laser surgery?
Witness protection program?
Maybe his secret identity is Cyclops.

I was thinking dilated pupils too. (Too many years of EMS work.)

Eye problems. I don’t frequent bars, but I have needed to use sunglasses in my house on a dark cloudy day due to an ocular migraine.

A really bad hangover. He’s having a little hair of the dog, but it hasn’t kicked in yet.

I was thinking “high” or “wanting to look cool.”

Stevie Wonder walked into a bar, “owwwwww!!!” (he said)

Why was ZZTopp one of the subjects?

@elbanditoroso Rhinestone shades or cheap…...........

My guess is they think it is cool or they have some sort of eye thing going on.

To look like a douchebag.

My ex bf did stuff like that to check out other women. That way I couldn’t see what direction his eyes were looking. I so busted him on it a few times. Jerk. I started telling him I thought he was checking out guys, and that pissed him off!

Believe it or not, the discos have lots of laser and spot lights flashing around.

Not good when they strike your eyes in a flash.

Discos?

Disco… That’s where you do a little dance, make a little love, and get down tonight…

git down tonight.

I don’t believe this was a disco.

I also don’t believe this was in 1974.

After reading all the responses above: that included: trying too look cool, drugs, illness, high, etc. I have to wonder: Why would a woman leave with this guy? (I don’t know if anyone did.)

@elbanditoroso ZZ Top did the song “Cheap Sunglasses”

because they’re a wanker. That is all.

^ That’s what I’m thinking. Let’s hope women don’t date/mate with ‘em.

Because he wears prescription glasses and only has his sunglasses with him at the moment. I very occasionally wear my sunglasses inside places when I mix up my coat or bag and leave my regular glasses in the other bag/coat or at home. It freaks people out.
