BarredI've only ever been barred from one pub, the "Fort St George in England" on Midsummer Common in Cambridge.*
I was part of a group caught drunkenly trying to add our names in biro to a historic signed cricket bat. I still have the pint glass I was holding as I was chucked out.
Where have you been banned from?
*All pubs in Cambridge have posh names like this. 25% fact

WetherspoonsOnly been barred twice in my life, both times from Spoons (so you wait six months and all the staff have changed...)
First was one year at an event called the Tyne Tour (big weekend for Canoeists in the North), which is based in Hexham. Friday night, we went to the Wetherspoons in town. Had a fairly quiet night, other than us managing to break one of the tables. We propped it back together right, and left, thinking nothing of it.
Next night, we went back there. We'd only just gotten in the door when the manager came up and informed us we were not welcome. Apparently, the CCTV *wasn't* good enough to pick out faces. But when everyone in our club all wear matching quartered rugby tops, it's a wee bit obvious...
Second time was again, with many canoe club people. That time, we just got thrown out for having a better evening than everyone else (okay, we may have been on a stealing spree through town)
