Bad Idea #16 - Figuratively cockblocking

My roommate went out with a group of friends this one weekend, and their group was mostly over 21. The problem is that one person in their group (incidentally, my roommate from several months ago) is under 21. They wanted to go to a club where someone was putting on a show, or something, and they decided that they would just try to get in by just walking through the door. The first few people in their group are waved in by the bouncer at the door, who only looks at the military ID's and doesn't check the DOB on the back. Unfortunately, my roommate decides for some inexplicable reason to say out loud and draw unnecessary negative attention:

15. "Actually, he's [pointing] not 21 yet. But it's ok. He's not going to drink."

Of course they are all forced to leave, and my roommate is lectured on why that was a bad idea. Thinking that he had learned from his mistake, they went out to a restaurant/bar later. When they order a bucket of beers, my roommate does the exact same thing - "Actually, he's under 21. But it's ok, because he's not going to drink." What a moron.

And I know I wasn't there. But this isn't a court of law, so hearsay goes. I will adapt and adjust this story if necessary, since I know pretty much all the people involved.

Oh my sweet beloved army. What the fuck was he thinking. Lets just say he was lucky I wasn't the underage man like I normally am. Isn't it the responsibility of the older person to get young ones drunk?
