A good friend of mine
Walked into a pub in Glasgow and, for some reason he'll never fathom, as soon as the barman asked him what he wanted, he slipped into a Glaswegian accent. Naturally he panicked at this point - surely the barman would think he was taking the piss and glass him before asking him to leave? But no, the barman didn't bat an eyelid, assumed his fake Scottish accent was perfectly natural and poured the requested round of drinks.

Trouble was, of course, he then had to keep that accent up for the rest of the time he was in the pub. If he'd given the game away, the consequences really don't bear thinking about.

I did that this weekend
I was in Glasgow, and had a taxi driver who sounded exactly like Billy Connolly, to not attempt a response in a similar accent

Why didn't he just leave after the first drink and go to another pub?

No scotsman leaves after just one drink!
He would have been immediately exposed as a wee soft shite.
