Aw, too late to the thread to be read. But it seems a lot of people want to look a gift horse in the mouth.

Someone actually thinks that it would be better if we hide our booze in the cups commonly used at keggers! Hehehehehehehehehehe.

I believe the ordinance allows alcohol at tailgates. Tailgating was always legal.

My opinion remains the same: no government should be allowed to regulate alcoholic beverages in any way.

Will they ticket someone drinking cream soda or ice tea… looks the same. This is Team Dave and BSU yeilding to pressure from ESPN to have large party town image when the ball is not in play.

So glad our wise overlords saw fit to maintain the appearance of moral propriety by requiring the use of opaque cups. Wouldn’t it be terrible if some youngster were to see that immoral substance known as “beer” inside of a – god forbid – clear cup! At least, for a few hours every game day, the arbiters of social morality have seen fit to let the citizens run totally wild and ….drink a beer at a tailgater. We should tremble. Freedom just might be at our doorstep.

What I don’t understand is all previous years, it has been legal to drink out of a red solo cup in the parking lot or tailgating. So why do we make a city ordinance to allow something that was already allowed…curious ? Oh, Do, you are a little extreme. Wait, very extreme.

Is the official title of this Ordinance the “Office close your eyes and look the other way of these days in these places during these hours for what would be offences otherwise?”

Or. “Merchants and Others have their way, again, for the nonce”?

Or. ?

Drunks Enabling Drunks!

I, for the life of me, cannot seem to wrap my head around the concept of enjoying the game without being intoxicated. Any sporting event for that matter.

I say we increase the fines and penalties for DUI with no immunity.

Is anyone in Idaho truly amazed at this? After all you elected a drunk for a governor.

Mr. Guardian, as an independent observer / teetotaler, I agree with you. This is clearly a double standard.

If the “open container law” benefits the citizens of our fair community, why allow an exception? Is the perceivable benefit somehow less because it’s Game Day?
