Well if you ever priced a beer at a race you would see why people brought their own in. |
allows coolers to be brought in when almost every local track in the
country bans them is beyond me.

A: Because it disturbs the logical flow of the message.
Q: Why is top posting frowned upon?

Lets ban smoking while we're at it too. No reason I need to smell your stinking cigarettes at the race track. |

since WELL before they jumped on this bandwagon, which was sometime after
February of '01.
Hell, lets eliminate pompous/pious ignoramuses from these events. These
idiots, which include 'longshot24' and his wondering if 'Dega has matured

Should it change is another question. Yet if you treat something like throwing something on the track after the race like that, and do nothing with the infield, in my opinion you can't have it both ways. what happens in the RV park and the infield doesn't effect what happens on the track. asshole airhead sans tossing stuff on the track does. and assholes will find something to toss no matter what they ban. Nonetheless, banning outside beer is necessary to prevent a future reoccurrence of such conduct. It's a bit silly to allow people to drink beer at a public event, anyway. All alcohol should be banned. They tried that once, called the Prohibition, we are still feeling the ciminal effects of that stupid idea Prohibition works just fine in certain places, like your job, airplane cockpits, Little League games, etc. |
Restricting alcohol in these cases is prudent and obvious, add schools,
hospitals, courhouses, etc, but a prohibition is stupid.

stop the drunks.

Price does not stop the drunks. |
on a Wednesday afternoon. Think they care about the price of a beer?
