I experienced this a few times as a foreigner in Philly. Getting denied entry to a beer garden because I didn't have my passport (I'm mid 30s so clearly not under their alcohol age), or my colleague being randomly carded at a baseball game to buy a beer, none of us got carded and he did and his only id was his EU drivers licence, and he was mid 40s. It's so bizarre.
