Alcohol at sporting events gets a bad rap

It actually is the alcohol. Drinking alcohol causes a chemical reaction in the brain. Booze affects neurotransmitters in the brain that causes people's inhibitions to be lowered, judgement to be clouded and actions to be affected in a negative manner. For example: Fighting, General obnoxious behavior, Driving a car while loaded, nailing an ugly woman. Most drunk people wouldn't do the things they do if they would have been sober.

here in orlando, a police officer was shot and killed by another officer, and they blame alchohol, oh this was at the UCF game.

 

what happened was: according to what I heard, an university undercover officer trying to stop underaged drinking, walk into a group of students and demanded IDs, but he was dressed in street cothing, including a Green shirt (UCF was playing Marshall) the students didn't believe him, so he showed off his badge, but the guy had a youthful look and the students didn't believe him still. He pulled out his gun, and one of the students came over to him and told him to put it down. they thought he was a frat boy from Marshall playing a joke, then he fired into the air causing everyone to run. the UCF officer then fired and hit the underaged student* a OPD officer saw this and shot the man in green in the back three times killing him.

 

they think that stopping the drinking will stop things like this.

 

*the "underaged student" was 22

It is difficult to argue with that. You forgot one - ugly guys getting lucky. :(

 

I have been going to games since the early 60's, and saw the usual stupid drunk behavior then, already described here in detail.

 

Here is a question:

 

If you ban beer from the stadium, would the games sell out? 0:)
