Actually I should try it.
Last year at Tampa I was fubar at one point.
When I returned to my Jeep at showtime to get my ticket which was under the passenger floor mat I found that the floorbaord was an inch deep in rum. Luckily they still let me and my soaked and falling apart ticket in.
Still don't know how I managed to fill the floor with rum but my brother let me hear some of my drunk ramblings that I left on his phone.
The most fitshaced that I've ever been was at Jim Morris' Fishstock back in 2000. I don't remember much of the show at all but the parking lot was fun.

If I had it all to do over again........................... :lol:
please tell me it was Cruzan you had spilled on the floor and not good rum...
Cruzan is better than Bacardi
depends... Bacardi Anejo and 8 year old isn't in the same category as their Puerto Rican whites and browns.
neither is cruzan single barrel which is 8 - 10 yr aged but regular Cruzan blows Bacardi away and dude, I used to love Bacardi but that stuff gives me a hangover that Cruzan never has
I hear you. Ever try Barbancourt? That is (at least from what I have tried) good in the 4, the 8, and the 15 year versions.
Yea I have all of them. I like the 8 and 15 but even my bro in law who loves Barbancourt says that one I got in Puerto Rico is better and I agree

have heard of that, think it was mentioned (or had an ad) in the last Cigar Aficianado's "Rum goes Premium" article. The writer of it sounded horribly-abused in having to travel the Carribbean in search of good rum. :D

had no interest in that one at all. The name didn't carry it, and I figured it was more a "name than product" thing. :)

I like to have a few beers and/or cocktails in the parking lot, quit drinking before the show, and don't drink during or after.

I don't want to get blasted; I paid good money for a concert.

But then, I don't make a habit of getting drunk anyway.... In fact, it's been a long time since I overindulged..... First of all, the aftermath isn't worth it. Second (and more important), I'm often driving, and the two just don't go together....

Just seems dumb to me to pay $$$ to go to something and get so shitfaced you cant remember it ...... when you can do that for free at home :P

I have never had a drink at or before a Buffett show. Each time I have been (excluding Newcastle, Australia - but we dont drink at concerts here) - it has cost me a lot of money to get to the USA to go to one - why would I want to have memory loss from it ....

I sort of have that rule as well, I generally drink at the tailgates, but once I get into the venue I usually just have one last one and then I'm done for the night (that way I can enjoy the show...:D)

well I didnt get the reply I was hoping for, but you all sure have a great sense of humor. many laughs for sure. I have read this bulletin board for a while, but never logged in and posted.

I am still looking foward to Irvine. I have been listening to the shows on Sirius and I am jazzed about hearing some of the new tunes in rotation.

I won't be there, but I am surprised that there are other sober Ph's. I am 29 and never drank and I have been to over a dozen shows and they are still great no matter what! :pirate:
