Late game day drinking.

I generally abstain until the 2:30 game and then I’ll pace myself through our night game. I realize that you can’t drink all day unless you start early but there’s nothing worse than a hangover after a devastating loss. I’m no longer a glutton for that kind of punishment. One thing I can control, the other I can’t.

The one thing I hate about late games is pacing. Staying right on the bubble without going too far one way or the other. Coffee with Bailey’s, and bloody Mary’s for breakfast. Then transitioning to SA Octoberfest the rest of the day.


My household has been battling the flu for two weeks straight now, so it's gonna be a pretty weekend around the house for me. My plan is

Coffee for breakfast
Lunch with ZOA energy drink around noon
Lost Forty Hunter starting at 1
Larceny barrel proof, grilled tri-tip, then firepit + smores around 6

Like @PBRME I got started early. Put a brisket on the smoker at 4:00 AM and been drinking shiners since before sunrise. Between the smoker and the fire pit it's nice and toasty on the back porch, even though a few of the flatlanders on the board won't buy it.

Brisket just hit the stall a little bit ago and should have a few hours to rest before the game. Switching over to whiskey at game time, Garrison Bros Balmorhea to start and then I will hit the Early Times BIB most likely.

Beer then whiskey. Always risky.

After drinking as much whiskey as I have over the last few years I am convinced beer doesn't actually have alcohol in it. So I should be good.
My Dad who drank a fifth of KY Tavern everyday would occasionally enjoy what he referred to as a "Beer Soda". He would typically start the morning with what he called "Irish Coffee" even though he used cheap bourbon.

You and me both.
Also, after 35, beer fills me up. After 3 beers I have to switch to bourbon.

And like yall, I woke up at 515 to start a brisket. No snow here though. Beautiful day!!! Just 2 beers in so far though

Start with beer in the morning and switch to the hard stuff at 11 just before a nooner.

I have a buddy from up here down your way today. He's over in Lockhart at the Texas Monthly BBQ fest and sending me pure porn pics of the grub. You should go tomorrow.

Bloody mary or 2 to start at lunch. Doing poor man’s burnt ends, so beer while I’m tending that, then got some ancient ancient age for about half time.

Starting off with some Redwood Empire Emerald Giant and then Lost Monarch.

Might by a Rye day
That's a lot of rye. I don't think I could taste battery acid after those two... But I am the young bull I guess.*

I took the morning off. Starting with a bit of Grape Diesel in my new GRAV Sherlock pipe while I’m working in my shop. Switching to some Garlic Kush Parfait (Redbud Roots) cart when I head back to the house.

I lied and switched to bourbon. I had one pour left in my bottle OF 1920 that was calling my name. So good
