I just saw a picture of a baseball stadium and the parking lot was like 5x bigger than the stadium. How do people manage to get wasted AND get home.

Excuse my naivety but I’m from Europe where people take the train usually and the hope is that the train conductor isn’t a drunk dad coming from the game. Plus we don’t have baseball.

    Eh, beers are like $14 so I never buy more than two. I usually have a few right before we head into the game though. Pre gaming is the American way. You’re buzzed for the first half of the game but sobering up by the end of it. I don’t drive home anyway, my wife doesn’t drink almost ever. I also don’t like going to bed drunk so if I’m drinking I like to do it a little earlier. But yeah it’s pretty normal for people to have a few beers and still drive home later. Some people do take Ubers tho.

      Oh shit $14, but you probably also get like a gallon instead of those tiny 0.5l ones we drink :D
