Did we talk about..

[57stratdawg]

The fact that MSU is now checking coolers upon entry to DNF? When did that start?

 

[J-Dawg]

First I've heard of it.

 

[Lawdawg.sixpack]

???? Will need some answers about this before next weekend.

I remember for the regionals and supers, the NCAA required a token glance inside the cooler. #watersontop

 

[Requiem For A Dawg]

Throw a few waters on top and you'll be fine.

 

[KeyserSoze1999]

Just makes prep work a little tougher---gotta mix rum & coke at home in the plastic Coke bottles, vodka / gin in the Sprite bottles, and vodka & OJ in a Sunkist bottle for the Screwdriver crowd. I guess beer drinkers are SOL though.

Makes me appreciate my time in LFL starting in 86

 

[Requiem For A Dawg]

No it doesn't. Either bring your cooler in beforehand or just put some waters on top. They just make you open the lid, they don't dig through it.

Maybe they'll find a starting pitcher that can go at least 5 innings during these searches

Ouch, but +1.

Excellent ideas, thanks for sharing.

Beer in Apple juice bottles

I'm not a big baseball guy and only went to a handful of games when I was there (early '90s). They did dig through them then, but it was easy to fool them. We always put a layer of beer in the bottom of the cooler and then covered it with a piece of poster board cut to fit the cooler (false bottom). Then would put cokes and water on top.

Jagermeister in a 20 ounce Coke bottle.

My buddy had a cooler full of beer for the Friday game. The lady at the gate told him she had to check it but didn't care what was in it. She checked it and said enjoy the game. I guess it's just dependent on how nice/lazy the person at the gate is.

 

[Requiem For A Dawg]

I mean none of those people at the gate are dumb to what is going on. I guess we have to "check" for insurance purposes or maybe the SEC is making schools check now. Either way, it's a non issue.

 

[KeyserSoze1999]

Whoa, full 20 oz of Jager! You sir are either an awesome party guy or you are expecting to have to get through some really bad baseball.

 

[Hoo22]

Strange. I walked in two different gates (main gate on the third baseline and the outfield gate) with a bag cooler this weekend and nobody said a word to me.

 

[RepeatDawg13]

Went in the gates 3 separate times this weekend with a cooler and only had to open the lid once. Guess it really just depends on the mood of the person at the gate.

Gate Attendants now allowing in hard liquor after 1st baseball weekend results.

Another couple of weeks of this and they will be handing it out to anyone attending.

I'd like to think it's the first one.

Maybe they thought it was your purse?**

1997 Regional, so we'll go with option A.

The fact that MSU is now checking coolers upon entry to DNF? When did that start?

I take a small cooler. The lady at the gate asked to look in mine. I got the lid zipper open about 2" before she said, "Thank you." and moved on. It was the same all weekend.

I was told by someone at the university that the frat trailers were getting a little blatant with there drinking and this was instituted so they could have grounds to bust their ***. This is just a message that " we know you are drinking and its against the law, we don't care but there are people who do. Don't be stupid and make us put a stop to it."
