I don’t drink anymore but when I did I tried to get as drunk as humanly possible prior to entering the stadium and would try to sneak in some liquor.
Looking back at it, drinking at the tailgate was fun but being housed in the stadium often became less so as the game went on...especially if things were not going well on the field.
By half-time, especially in the early games early in the season, sitting in the student section with the Sun blazing down on you it was tough. I'd be starting to crash by half-time. Trying to get through the student gate with liquor was a rare success.
Back then we could use our girlfriends as booze mules. Since guys got extra scrutiny. But discovery meant no entrance, or expulsion if caught during the game. So it was risky.
And it was tough telling your girlfriend you'd meet her back at the apartment or tailgate after the game was over. More then once we had words over that. 😂
I consider myself a beer lover .... but that Drurys beer was the worst ever ... I went back to pure Sterling ! .... it was $6 per case in big mouth bottles up in Arcade , GA
To tolerate the Drurys we would do shots of a bourbon called Len Motlow, Jack Daniels distant, and dirt cheap, cousin.
We were not connoisseurs of the finer spirits.
Well students not driving daddy’s BMW s couldn’t afford to be picky
No we couldn't a lot of us had jobs to pay for our own school.
I remember one year a roommate of mine had saved enough money to buy the meal plan for a quarter. We were envious of him. Ramen noodles, canned corn, Tony's 99 cent pizzas, Drewrys beer were mainstays, with the occasional luxuries of shared Domino's pizza and some Miller Lite. ...but hey, we came out of college with ZERO student debt.
Damn they were good times. 😁
