The speed at which bad publicity flies online nowadays can undermine the bottom line, but until then, profitable heavy drinkers will be given a wide berth. <BR/><BR/>Russell, <BR/>Could be. Old habits die hard. <BR/><BR/>Jeff, <BR/><BR/>Agreed. I dont want to ban beer from baseball games, but sales have been regulated before (ie 7th inning last call)and I wonder if it's time to consider more restrictions. <BR/><BR/>Generally speaking, I think fan behavior is still better than it was thirty years ago, for a variety of reasons, but I sense it's declined in the past decade, fueled largely by binge drinking and you damn kids :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18498935.post-7618525988256958512008-06-06T14:35:00.000-07:002008-06-06T14:35:00.000-07:00Though I don't think we should stop selling beer a...Though I don't think we should stop selling beer at the park (for my own sake) I think there should be a limit to shenanigans. No one deserves to feel uncomfortable at a game because some jerkazoid is making a scene.<BR/><BR/>I can only imagine how disgusted you'd be, Matt, if you had to listen to Hawk & D.J. every broadcast. My lord, those guys, while probably the complete opposite of Sutton & Grace, would drive you nuts.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18498935.post-71137643280343366342008-06-06T14:12:00.000-07:002008-06-06T14:12:00.000-07:00Maybe Daron was forgetting that he's no longer the...Maybe Daron was forgetting that he's no longer the Brewer's commentator, and didn't want to give the impression that drinking too much beer could be a bad thing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18498935.post-27027263872322712772008-06-06T13:27:00.000-07:002008-06-06T13:27:00.000-07:00I have never understood why any entertainment venu...I have never understood why any entertainment venue permits, much less condones, behaviour which cheapens the value of other customers' experience--which is, after all, what they are paying for.<BR/><BR/>Of course that might reduce beer sales.<BR/><BR/>Michael Norton<BR/><A HREF="http://www.someclubhouse.com" REL="nofollow">Some Clubhouse</A>Michael Nortonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10760283540522938226noreply@blogger.com
