Wow, race might have everything to do with it...
So last night, after all of the festivities with my physics lab people, I was going home and realized that I didn't want to let my alcohol buzz go quite yet. Rather than pick up a bottle of Jack and toss it back in my room like a degenerate, I decided to go to a neighborhood bar and drink some Jack like...well, marginally less of a degenerate

Quite possible it was a race thing, however I will suggest a possible alternate theory. I agree you weren't wanted there but I believe it possible that perhaps some shady dealings may have been going down. You probably were a bit fuzzy so there may have been some things you missed. But lets break things down: a group of people who know each other well, a bartender who doesn't want you there and more importantly isn't interested in your $ on a slow night, and the people who you spoke with basically tested/interrogated you. If it were strictly more racially motivated I feel that they could have just refused your ID and that if they let you in taking your $ wouldn't have been a problem, and I don't think anybody would have talked to you. Their actions seemed more of a checking you out as a potential threat they wanted to see who you were, why you were there, and once that was resolved the encouragement was to finish your drink and get the hell out so they could finish their business. Anyway just another possible explaination.
