Favorite Pregame Drink for...
 
What is your favorite pregame drink for different events? Post Event and Beverage/Drink.

My Personal Favorites:

Football: Beer Drinking Games or Boxed Wine

Parties: Shooters EX: Vodka and Cranberry Juice shots, SoCo Cranberry and Lime juice.

If by "pregame" you mean like "tailgating," then beer is the best. But if you mean "drinking before you go out drinking," then it's jagerbombs.

the game of beerpong is standard at all times

quadruple rum and cokes are also good before doing anything

Usually I just have beer before I go out, but sometimes switch it up with white russians, vodka sprites, shots of patron, or jagerbombs if I really want to get fccked up

Jaggerbombs (we actually stopped doing the whole bomb part, we just chase with RB now). Kamikaze (sp?) shots are good too, but after a few the lime gets kind of annoying. Car bombs are good on occasion.

The guys in my apartment will often try a new shot every few weeks or so - picking one at a drink website. It can be hit or miss though (last week we tried "Dirty Swingers," and they weren't very good).

beer at football tailgates

boxed wine,other cheap bottled wine, or a classy liquor drink like gin and tonic before dinner parties with fraternity alum

jagerbombs, straight shots of Beam, Cuervo, or vodka before big parties (no chase on the wiskey or tequila but due to bad experiences with vodka, i usually chase with red bull, cranberry juice, orange juice, or beer)

Can anyone recommend a good, cheap gin? I had tangueray (sp?) this weekend and liked it, but its expensive. Any lower priced gins that are good?

yes, Tanqueray(~$22/750mL) is great, and Tanqueray TEN (~$30/750mL)is even better...but still failry cheap considering that there are bottle of gin that go for over 50 or 60 bucks each...willllllddddd
cheaper gins that i like/can deal with on a budget:
Gordon's, Seagram's, and Burnett's are all around 10-12 bucks each, and halfway decent
a step up would be Bombay, Beefeater, and the standard Tanqueray, all about twenty bucks each

without my personal opinions go to this site http://cocktails.about.com/od/spirits/p/gin_brands.htm


Basic rule of thumb for all liquor, if it comes in a plastic bottle, you know it's going to be cheap, but you won't know:
1. if you like it or not
2. if it's good enough for you
3. if it mixes well with mixers like tonic water, gingerale, juice, etc

For me, i'd rather spend another ten bucks to get a good bottle of gin, but i prefer cheap $8 bottle of vodka over grey goose or anyting premium for some weird reason...
My Advice: IT'S ALL PERSONAL PREFERENCE...TRY THEM ALL...JUST NOT IN THE SAME SITTING
