I just saw a picture of a baseball stadium and the parking lot was like 5x bigger than the stadium. How do people manage to get wasted AND get home.

Excuse my naivety but I’m from Europe where people take the train usually and the hope is that the train conductor isn’t a drunk dad coming from the game. Plus we don’t have baseball.

    Are drunk driving laws just not that strict in the US? Iirc you lose about 0.01%BAC per hour. One beer will give you like 0.05%*, which is also the upper limit of blood alcohol where I live. If you have a second beer, that means it’d take like 5 hours until you’re able to drive again. Are baseball games this long?

    *to be fair, this’d be lower the heavier you are

      Maybe if you shotgun it on an empty stomach or something.

      With the weight of the average American, and the abv of the average American Miller Lite, one beer ain’t gonna get you anywhere near .05.
