Why are ice cubes in men's restrooms?!


Question: a rumor i heard, but didn't understand


Answers: a rumor i heard, but didn't understand

Ive seen ice in urinals at a lot of bars. They do it when its busy becuase the ice cools the urine to reduce the smell and it flushes a little bit as the warm pee melts the ice.

Edit: wikipedia even mentions it
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urinal
"Some establishments, often bars, pubs, or nightclubs, fill their urinals with ice cubes during peak hours. As the ice melts, it serves to slowly flush the urinal, and also cools the urine to prevent smells from rising during use. "

It's just a rumor, at least I think it has to be. I've never seen any in all the bathrooms I've been in.

You heard wrong. No ice cubes in the boys room.

total lie hah

Well, who ever told you this was lieing there isnt ice cubes in the guys bath rooms.

Well, you ladies get couches in yours. Leave us and our ice cubes alone!

i have never been to a bathroom with ice cubes maybe youre referring to the air fresheners in some urinals, or osmetims someone will dump their drink into a sink or urinal and the ice wont go down the drain

In all my life I've never seen ice cubes in the men's comfort room, nor is there some inside joke that only men are privy to about it, at least not one I've heard anyway.

They wouldn't be ice cubes for long. I bet the person who told you that is having a GREAT laugh. DUH.

a rumor never heard of that

HAHAHA i have seen the ice in the mens resteroom on the movie "hot chick" i dont know why though

The little toilet Urinal Block cleaner. Urinal ice.

ice cubes aren't in men's restrooms.

only in some..i've only seen them in a movie...but they might be there for the smell not to be too consentrated.

Ive never been in a restroom with ice in it

Some dudes do not flush the urnals and with the ice is constantly puts water through the system and keeps it cleaner and smelling freash. I have seen it in clubs and resaruants in my area in So cal in the urnals

curtdude

To keep the smell down. To the guys who have never seen this or said this is not true, Try eating in a fine restaurant other than Sizzler or Claimjumper, backwoods rubes.....
