What Is Your Beer Limit At Sporting Events?
Read the Article: What Is Your Beer Limit At Sporting Events?

I like to go to football, baseball and hockey games and have a good time.  I also have to drive at least 1-2 hours away to do it.   What is your alcohol limit at sporting events?

This poll has not been published yet. Please come back on 12/04/09.

I don't drink anymore, but when I did my limit depended on my wallet. For $7 a bottle, I was limited to only a few. I used to sneak in a few mini shot bottles and mix them in my beer to get a bigger buzz. I also did this at concerts and any other public events that sell beer.

I attend many sporting events with business colleagues either as a host or a guest. It doesn't look good if I'm plastered by the end of the event. Beyond that, getting hammered loosens lips and that isn't necessarily a good thing especially if you're in some sort of negotiation with said business colleagues. So, two or three is usually the max for me.

The gist of the article:

Australian motorsport fans are ruing militant alcohol consumption guidelines at one of the country's most popular races – after being limited to a mere 24 cans of beer a day.

Police in charge of the Bathurst 1,000 car race in Bathurst, New South Wales, issued the restrictions before the start of the four-day event this Thursday.

Spectators are limited to one 24-can case each of full-strength beer, although if revellers are willing to consume lower-strength alcohol (3.5% abv or less) they will be entitled to a more satisfactory 36 cans

It really depends on the game.  If I'm going to a Cubs game, I take it to the max.  It's what we do at Wrigley.  If I'm going to a Bears or Irish game, it depends who they're playing, but I usually limit myself so I can remember the game.  After all, it ain't cheap to attend big time college football and NFL games.  I have connections at the UC so I get pretty hammered for Bulls and Hawks games.

Since I am usually driving I only have one early in the game.  Otherwise if I am not the driver, I might have 2-3.  Too old to make a fool of myself anymore.  Besides it is more fun to drink a little and watch the other fools get hammered and laugh at them.

 At the prices today, it's two or less.  If I can tailgate, it's probably a 6-pack.  If I'm a guest in a corporate suite, well enough to make it worthwhile, but not enough to get sick, just a little obnoxious.

I'm with you...something I learned some time ago; when the boys used to go to clubs or parties...was to stay somewhat in control. So while all the other dudes were getting wasted and being obnoxious, I was in control and having much better luck with the members of the fairer sex...

I always have to travel to go to games.....if I have to drive then I will behave myself. I can't go to a game without having at least a few beers, but I can put down beer in insane quantities and not even feel it.  I do most of my drinking at our fan club bar.......with the crowd we get there, it's usually natural progression to be hammered by the 4th quarter. Pretty much every week I wind up in a scuffle with a bottle of Jaegermeister and countless beers..........no doubt Ed will have my back on that one.

I tote my cooler in, but in the heat of the day , I am sucking enough water to keep a camel hydrated in the desert heat. Once the sun sets, it's on,.. and with a good enough buzz and my driver doing well, I may even buy a $5.00 16 oz or a $20.00 bucket or two, if I run out!

Haven't been anywhere other than Nascar, but it's looking like I may get to go to the Steelers v Miami in January, what, you cant bring a cooler in a FB game? What a Rip!

Whatever!  You should know me well enough by now that I'm not going to do that.  BTW, he started it.  I'm not sure why they like to pick on my game day gear after we just whipped their butt.  They did the same thing when I was in Chicago four years ago.
