[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand. A game is a couple of hours, you can’t last through that without a drink at a children’s event?

Or if you have a series of games, you should be hydrating because you will be outside for a long time and driving frequently.

That’s what I was thinking. I can imagine having some parents / players over after a game or tournament- but not being able to make it 2-3 hours without alcohol? That shocks me. I sure as heck wouldn’t be carpooling with those parents.

Do they think it’s cute or funny? It makes me think they are alcoholics. [/quote]

Where do you get that people "can't make it" 2-3 hours? without alcohol?  That's a massive and unsupported inference.  [/quote]

The teetotalers on this board always do that. If you want to drink it must be because you're an out of control drunk. If you have one beer at a kids athletic event you're clearly an alcoholic guilty of child endangerment.

That's why no one offers anyone in this thread a thermos of sangria. [/quote]
I’m not a tea-toter. But I think you do have a problem if you can’t follow simple rules about not drinking. Almost every single one of these clubs and leagues have a rule that parents and spectators should not be drinking during the game. And almost all the venues that are hosting these games also have a No alcohol policy.
It’s a stunning example parents are sitting for their children. The rules don’t apply to them. Having a few drinks where it’s not allowed is not a big deal. Drinking and driving is not a big deal.[/quote]

Thank you. I especially love the posters who say no one is drunk and their driving isn't affected.[/quote]

I like the posters that are two stupid to realize that if mom and dad go to the game one can drink as much as they want and the other can drive.[/quote]
