chad72 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 I have no idea how accurate this is, to be honest. The objective of the smartphone app is a good one, just not sure I feel inclined to trust the results. Titans fans probably want to drown out their sorrows, like Falcons fans. Colts fans are still reminiscing about Peyton and Luck, I guess, and drinking to it, lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come to a home Bills game sometime. The optics are waaaay different . I've been to both Colts and Bills home games dozens of times...there is no comparison.

The optics are waaaay different . I've been to both Colts and Bills home games dozens of times...there is no comparison. I don’t think it’s a good study. Lucas Oil seems to be pretty tame. One Kansas City fan I talked to in 2022 was taking his son to Lucas oil, because he said he wasn’t ready to take him to Arrowhead yet. He had read that Lucas oil was more family friendly, which is true based on my experiences there and other stadiums. The fact that Indy was 3 and Kansas was last is laughable. I’m sure lucas oil holds their own in alcohol sales, especially considering they are cheaper than many other places, but that’s not even remotely close to being the same breath as overall drunkenness, which is a large result of the pregame activities outside the stadium. And anyone that goes to colts games knows the pregame activities are nothing compared to other locations, like Buffalo… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2006Coltsbestever Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 .08 - that is like 2 beers, that isn't even drunk. If I took the test during all these close games, who knows what my test would have been?? This past season drove me nuts . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think .30 is considered legally dead by law. I actually have a breathalyzer here at my house. I have to have it because of my line of work. I have to be 100% sober before work because I drive a company vehicle. On one of my off days watching the Colts, I blew into it and blew a .12 that was after 4 strong beers that were like 9% in volume and 2 shots of Crown (whiskey) over around a 4 hour timeframe but the funny thing is I was coherent. I was feeling buzzed but not drunk. I ate Pizza that day though as well which probably helped. A friend of mine got drunk out of his mind, this happened around 25 years ago. He wrecked his car, and he told me when he got tested by the police, he tested .26 - got DWI. He didn't even remember what happened. It is ok to drink, just don't drink and drive and drink in moderation. 3 or 4 Beers and a shot of whiskey or 2 is ok as long as you are at home chillin. Eat well and sleep it off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJFanatic Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Being from Jersey, very hard to believe the Jets didn't make the list. Their fan base is WASTED before they enter the stadium! And they leave by halftime to sober up to be able drive home! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunk Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 I will drink a few beers tailgating before a game, and maybe one during. I am too old to drink like I did in college, and my single days. The worst drunk I've seen at a game was a Lions fan that puked in a peanut bag, and my buddy handed him a empty cup to finish. His friends carried him, and the 2 puke containers out, and didn't return for the remainder of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only drink on my off days and it is mainly to relax me. During Colts games it helps my nerves. I don't see how some people drink like a 12 pack of beer a day or even a 5th of Whiskey a day. That would make me sick and that is real bad for you. Some do it though. I have been around people that do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah there is a difference between drunkenness and beer sales during the game. At cold outdoor stadiums those people are hammered when they get there The op made the title to be funny but there is a difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, i was being funny and sarcastic at the same time. I think they probably do hold their weight in beer sales, but mostly because it's cheaper than most places. There's a reason the drunks drink before the game... I've been to more games at Lucas Oil than i can recount, and I really can't tell you an instance where I was around someone drunk. I know that there probably were at every game, but nothing like what I see posted online. I've never seen a fight at lucas oil like i see weekly posted online at what seems like the same stadiums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
