They want us to show up at 2:30? I love how the email points out that parking may be an issue. It’s issues like this that are why we can’t have nice things.
Beer tasting
- Thread starter Gold*
- Start date
Yep. I believe the actually tasting is at 4:00. I recognize they have to check IDs and all that, but I have to work for a living.
Yes they started with 3:30. Now they say 2:30. My thirsty self will be there 3:30. I’m sure they want to get everyone processed.

It reminds me of the annual home basketball game on a Friday afternoon before the holidays. Like why even bother?
That game promotion will be break the record for the business man 2 martini lunch.
I originally signed up, but I dont think theres any way I'm gonna make it. Getting off work isn't an issue, but waiting around with my 5 year old that long before kickoff and making it through the 4th quarter might be.
Originally misread this as bear tasting. Not sure that would draw the same crowd but probably would be an easy record to break
I thought we were gonna be just given a cup to sip on. We are REQUIRED to taste 3 different beers?!? Well that makes getting there early better all of the sudden.....
And guided by a certified cicerone?? Holy hell, I didn't know the mafia was gonna be there!!

I took the afternoon off.
No better reason I can think of to use vacation time. Football. Beer. Beautiful weather.
Must win too of course or it is all ruined.
Let me see what I can do. I should be able to get you one.
Shhhhh noble!! I am going to trade him a beer stein for just 15 minutes of his time to make my timeshare presentation!!
I have a startup Im trying to get going - Just need about a $50k infusion of cash. What do you say?My wife won't let me go to those, because I struggle telling people no
I feel like the lines are kind of blurred here. You should be tasting three beers before the game anyway or you’re doing it wrong. Isn’t this whole thing just organized tailgating?
Also, if we can’t set this “record” with students only, then we should just disband the school. We have no hope.

My son who is a SR is going and he doesn’t drink. He’s going to taste the “alcohol free” one.
He’s not into football either so, hopefully this is an indication of student interest!
He doesn't like football and doesn't like beer...what is he even doing in college!?!?!?! Studying???? Groooossssssss
Kids these days.
Good for him for doing his own thing.
I’m just saying in my day there wouldn’t be beer left by 3:30 if they stayed giving it out at 2:30. Then again, it would have been some pathetic Keith Burns stuff after that, so we probably would have gone to watch the basketball practice instead.
Considering glass isn't allowed in the stadium, this seems likely. Probably closer to those old plastic Ken's pizza mugs.
I'm so mad at TU for allowing 3 home games on Thursday nights, the conference/media for 3 Thursday night games, TU again for doing a beer tasting on one of said games, and finally the Air Force for not giving me time to drive up and do this. Like, do they not understand that me going to a beer tasting before a TU game takes precedence over their stupid check ride, schedule, and taxpayers? The gall of these people.
Anyway, y'all have fun and drink 1 or 6 for me.

I've already "sampled" 3 different Keystone Lights and one glass of Franzia today. I must say they were exceptional.
Keystone Lights and a glass of Franzia... You had me rolling over here, that was perfect
I thought Marshall made a specialty and they had local breweries with stuff? If it's just Anheuser I'll consider myself lucky - at least missing that part, not the game.
He’s smarter than me and has longer hair than I ever did (and i had hair past my nipples). I’m a little jealous!
In my day, a Coors truck would pull up and park on the U or in front of the KA house. It had a tap on the side and you drank your fill until the keg was dry for $10 a piece or until the driver came back or he got bored looking at the sorority girls.
