best way to get beer into a stadium?

[/ QUOTE ]

I used to put vodka in a ziplock bag, then put that in another ziplock bag. You can, of course, use whiskey or rum or whatever floats your boat, then buy a giant soda in the stadium and viola, cocktails!

No metal for detectors, feels like there's nothing there on a pat down, and I've never had an "accident" with the double bag precaution. If security is less strict you can just take those little liquor bottles or a flask.

I don't generally sneak beer in, preferring to drink my fill (a couple 40s is a nice start) at a tailgate beforehand then just nurse one or two in the game.

Did I mention I'm a cheap [censored]?

Ralph Wilson Stadium - Home of the Buffalo Bills

Doubt anyone cares, but if you are coming from the East, take Milestrip Road and hop a left onto California Road and enter at Drive 5. Best lot, and you jump all of the traffic on Abbot Road, which is a giant disaster.

When leaving, get in the leftmost lane leaving the lot and smoke everyone (all lanes turn right, and everyone packs the left 6 or so lanes, leaving you a clear shot out).

If you are into tailgating, park near one of the lightposts in the lots, those are where the Port-o-Johns are (not too close, obv.).

For Autzen football games (UofO in Eugene), if coming from the North like most traffic, take the Springfield exit instead of waiting until the Eugene exit and waiting in traffic before the game.

If you head to the Shovsky center for beers at halftime, the lines for the bathroom are insanely long. Head past the bookstore into a small mezanine area with some trees / bushes you can sneak into for a quick piss.

Drive if you can. The metro is a zoo and because of the way the roads were built and the huge size of the stadium, it is not very hard to get out.

Not really ideal :-/

for one, when we go my friends and I like to chill, have some beers, and watch the Nats lose. No one wants to worry about having to drive

Plus when you're young the metro is fun [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

In spirit of By-Tor, and considering I don't live in Pittsburgh anymore, I'll reveal the best place to park for a Steelers game :

Google Maps

Look to the left of Heinz Field and you'll see a street called Lighthill. To call it a street is really a joke, it's just a strip of land between a warehouse and a stadium lot. I have parked there for years and have never had a problem. It usually gets packed because other cars will see you parked there and will join in. Turns into a real good tailgating spot too since you got a stadium lot right there and plenty of room to setup whatever you want.

The one bad thing is you're right on the river, so it can get pretty cold in the winter. I parked there for the AFC Championship game vs New England a few years back. I got out of my car, opened up a Miller Lite bottle, took a big chug, set it down on my car because to grab my jacket out of my car, put on my jacket, grabbed my bottle of beer and it had froze solid.

This is an absolutely awesome thread. Fun read. I have nothing to contribute though. I suck at stadium secrets.

Minute Maid Park: Park down by Bastrop and Rusk or whatever on the other side of highway 59 for free, and find a rickshaw guy, flag them down, they are usually not carrying anyone. Hop in (they can take up to 4 ppl), get to park in about 3 minutes, and just tip the guy. Much more pleasant experience than walking.

Fenway - dont bother driving at all,if you want a decent spot you will be paying $60 and will still be stuck in traffic after the game

the sneak in through the bar method someone mentioned earlier will most likely not work. They have a Red Sox employee stationed at the door of the bar with the bouncers.

Food - there are many great restaurants in the immediate area, most of the food in the Park is terrible and overpriced.

Beer - $7 for 16oz of Domestic Beer. There are a few stands where you can pay .75c more and get Guiness, Smithwicks, Harp, Sam Adams, Sam Summer, and Stella. This is probably a better value that a $7 Coors Light.
