Do you do it, and to what extent?

  1. Hell yeah; I'm more spirited with spirits (pickled)

  2. A little bit; mainly out of tradition and with spicy tailgating food (slightly buzzed)

  3. Not really; getting a headache by halftime sucks (moderately to not at all)

  4. No; drunk people at games are obnoxious (not at all)

    Depends of the quality of oppenent! If it's a blowout we could get snockered, if it's gonna be a donnybrook we lighten up until afterwards.

    Wild Turkey and branch, every game for 32 years. Just enough to work up a good attitude. Never a stumbing drunk, there's a football game to watch.

    I'm somewhat of a healthnut...so football season is my drinking season. Once football is over, I can sometimes go 2-3 months without having any alcohol(I don't drink it for the taste). I'm usually pretty f'ed up by gametime then usually sneak a little sumpt'm, sumpt'm into the game. Thankfully I can watch the replay on Cox on Sunday nights for anything I might have missed.:thumb:

    OK - I've been drinking VO and ginger ale for 5 days now and I'm starting to feel something. Looks like I'm on track for a good ole fashioned "sitting in front of my computer listening to the game audio on the internet drunk" by September 3rd.

    Now - if this is too much of a hi-jack then disregard, but now that we've got everyone's drinking level and poison down, how about an educational thread for the freshmen? How did/do you sneak alcohol into the stadium?

    We had two methods. I was in the greek section and since we knew where our seats were, we'd sneak in on friday afternoon and tape our flasks under our seats. The FAR more popular method, however, was to use a seal-a-meal machine to make one or two cup size "enhancements" for our dates. Getting the booze out during the game was almost as fun as drinking it.
