Best places are the soccer bars that open at 7AM for the EPL matches. There’s one in Morristown called the Grasshopper which does exactly that.

i’ve never drunk one because of this

I only started because here in central time, Bloody Marys are very popular for 11am college football game starts. I get them with extra pepper, extra horseradish, and extra Worcestershire sauce, and no olives. It’ll wake your ass up, and the Worcestershire cuts the tomato nicely.

Townie bar a little ways from here opens up on 10 on Sunday mornings with the allure of free chicken wings and cod nuggets (used to be 8, assholes) along with a screwdriver that looks like water with a bit of lemon in it after being poured…breakfast of champions

This sounds like a great place to hang out.

no better vacation feeling than the freedom to get a great buzz on early in the day. swim-up bars are amazing

In that case then, yes I will start strong in the morning. When I flew to Vegas last year on SW out of Philly, I racked up a $40 beer tab.

Yep… it’s pretty cool to get to the end of the night and realize everything is done and you pulled it off. There’s a great picture of me giving my wife a high five at the end of the night. It’s pretty cool. Enjoy your honeymoon too… would have loved to go to Hawaii, but we took a few days and rented a cabin in the Smokies, since we have to go to Europe later this year, and possibly next year too anyway.

I’ve been going to Yankee games regularly (Sunday plan) for about 25 years. I can say that without a doubt, the crowd has become more and more civilized over the years. And I’m in the cheap seats. Frankly, Yankees fans have become pretty boring. Most people seem to be getting kicked out for smoking weed in their seats lately.

Yeah me too WWoS, but I can’t find anything related to an injury right now so idk

WWoS – No issue with eating, just all of the little detail stuff going on that seems to be non-stop leading up to next Saturday.

I think they’re just resting him in a blowout, hopefully not an injury

You’d think so, but given how hot he was (and how much his batting average could use a few more good at bats), and even though cycles are dumb achievements, I’m still surprised they pulled him.

Losing so much hair

I was not stressed at all until trying to remember everything to pack for the wedding and other events that weekend (we hosted a 5k run adn golf tournament that weekend…) and I started getting stressed and busy and forgot to eat. Lost 5 pounds in 2 days.

Dont remember who had Crawford in fantasy, but it says he was taken out in the 6th inning at 4-4 for the day, a triple short of the cycle. Guessing injury?

Can’t brah, gotta drive the rental car after getting into Maui.

But if 74 percent of “fake” drinkers can still get served alcohol at sporting events, I’m sure you could still get and drive your rental car in Maui! haha

Yeah, think of doing all my drinking then, and then continue the drinking on the second flight.
