[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It has always seemed sort of trashy to me. I know- you guys will freak, but... more of a far out suburban baseball thing than an inside the beltway soccer thing.  Some pools have a really heavy drinking culture- and those are the ones where I have noticed a larger percentage of men in jewelry. Flame away. My observation/impression. (And I drink!)[/quote]

OMG. I grew up in a big city (not podunk DC) and heavy drinking wasn’t associated with city vs non-city. I’m appalled people drink at kids games now, but growing up, my high school softball coaches drank during our practices. We did well and they were white collar guys. I see that as pretty antiquated like the old Bad New Bears (which I saw in theaters).[/quote]

I live in the suburbs in CO right now and there is sometimes some drinking at games. I don’t necessarily see it as trashy but there is a more laid back, small town vibe here. Not so much men wearing jewelry but men in flannel. I do think you may be right about it being more of a suburban thing. [/quote]
