$300 for water?!?!
Maybe his kids shouldn’t drink so much beer.
I’d say twenty-three miller lites are the bare minimum needed to make baseball enjoyable.
What do you need to pre-game to make the Miller Lites enjoyable?
Baseball is the socially acceptable background noise for sitting in public and drinking beer, tbf
Baseball and beer goes together like bus stops and hard liquor.
Yeah, but that doesn’t apply here since he was drinking Miller Lite, not beer.
Who could sit through a baseball game without 23 beers?
Better make them Lite, though, I’m on a diet.
46 comments and nobody’s suggested that’s how many Miller Lights you need to get a buzz?
Miller lite is 12 fl oz, 4.2% ABV. A baseball game is typically 2.5 hours long. Assuming a 200 lbs man, and using the calculator.net BAC calculator, drinking 3-5 beers over the course of the game will leave him in the “buzz” range between 0.02% and 0.06% BAC at the end of the game.
Consuming 23 beers over the course of the game will result in a 0.38% BAC, which calculator.net helpfully describes with:
“Stupor, central nervous system depression, loss of understanding, lapses in and out of consciousness, low possibility of death”
In metric:
Miller lite is 0.355 liters, 4.2% ABV. A batball game is typically 9 kiloseconds long. Assuming a 90.71847 kg man, and using the calculator.net BAC calculator, drinking 0.3-0.5 decabeers over the course of the game will leave him in the “buzz” range between 0.02 metric% and 0.06 metric% BAC at the end of the game.
Your calculations are off. Most ballparks stop selling beer in the 8th inning.
Most only sell you 2 beers at a time too… or maybe that’s just a Wisconsin thing idk i haven’t been to a baseball game outside the state.
That is also true. Good point.
The calculator.net BAC calculations assume a linear reduction in BAC over time, so as long as you start drinking at the beginning of the game, and never get down to 0% before you finish drinking it works out the same under those assumptions.
Ty, I’d like for you to crunch those numbers again.
Just crunch 'em. Just crunch 'em, please.

It’s a website, there’s no such thing as…
clicks refresh Crunch.
In metric:
Whew, thank you, this was getting so confusing until that point.
Also,
“Stupor, central nervous system depression, loss of understanding, lapses in and out of consciousness, low possibility of death”
Those appear to be desirable for a significant subset of US people nowadays from what I see online.
The only reason that anybody should ever have 23 beers at a baseball game, is if it’s .10 cent beer night.
Or they’re watching the Orioles play.
HA-HA, “he buy too many beer.”
Ok but there’s NO FUCKING WAY a $3 trash beer should be $13, and they give you those small ass Dixie Cups.
IASIP taught kids how to pregame with antifreeze (don’t do it, joke) and huffing glue. Gen X boomers who already have a house, and avocado toast lifestyle can learn finance tips too.
Okay, but unless these are gourmet nachos, gourmet hot dogs, and gourmet mountain dew, this is still gouging before the Miller Lites.
Yes that’s stadium pricing. Pay $10-$15 for a hot dog that makes the Costco $1.50 hot dog look gourmet.
The Costco $1.50 hot dog is gourmet!
Or at least it was, until they stopped giving out sauerkraut and brown mustard <grumble, grumble>
But seriously though, Costco hot dogs are objectively excellent, regardless of price.
I highly doubt it. It’s probably like $5 for a single 12oz can. The kind you could buy a 6 pack of for the same price.
In that same breath, $13 beers are just insane. There’s no logistical cost or reason for them being that expensive other than they have you restricted as a captive audience. It doesn’t cost them nearly that much, but you’ll pay it, because otherwise it’s nothing. And baseball without beer should just be classified as a genevia level form of torture.
One of my oldest schemes was to make a sort of like russian hat, those high fur ones, and sneak a six pack in there, hooked up to tubes, where you can sneak the tube down to your mouth and drink. For football more where the temperature is colder.
But it could be done with any sort of diaphram. I think military guys carry like a bladder of water, something like that on the belly with loose clothing made to look like you were overweight would work, at least for us skinny people.
Depends on how crazy security is. I’ve seen it done with a CamelBak, dark fabric, and a decoy water pouch. Then again I’ve also seen a guy that brought so much beer through security that he built a little pyramid of cans on the seat in front of him.
Someone needs to learn about “pre-gaming”. I’m a baller on a budget.
I mean 50+ dollars for hot dogs nachos and some sodas is still highway robbery.
That could easily be 6-8 adults and 2 kids (we told them not to bring the kids, but they never listen).
Somebody’s gotta be the designated driver
