Dude... They stuck it to you HARD. No way in hell a grape bomber should be that much. I hate fruity shit so I usually stick to bourbon and stuff like that, and a straight booze shot (no matter what it is, unless it's top shelf) is no more than $6-7... A mixed shot should be no more than 5. Stick with the dives, big places screw you.

 

Most youngun's don't fathom the dollar. To drop $50 at a bar is painless. Get a little older and you put things into perspective. A couple of $50 tabs leaves you thinking I could have bought a Citica for about that much! Add in the number of times you're on the road driving under the influence and it's a no brainer - buy fishing gear, not alcohol. Been there, Done that (not the DUI part):whiteflag Sober is cool!:1popcorn:

 

Cheese Crisp aka Mexican Frisbees with queso.:biggrin:

Stay at home and get a Primo bottle of Ta-Kill-Ya like El Tesoro Platinum and make your own Mexican Frisbees.

 

I've heard the immediate area around Dos Gringos on Baseline has highest concentration of DUI arrests in the area. Not sure why though...because there doesn't seem like a lot of bars around there.

And I agree that $50 can get some great steaks and a good bottle of Gentleman Jack

I see Gilbert PD sitting around that corner all time just waiting.

 

Guys' I'm kinda older and I've made it a habbit to not go to bars anymore for just this reason. It's easy dropping $50-100-150.00 dollars when i'm out with the boys. So if the boys want to drink, come over to the chante(house). Saves me money and keeps them from getting that DUI. Luckily I just got divorced and i don't have the bitch there saying who and what can stay at my house. Saves me money for my hunting and fishing.

 

My habits have changed a lot over the past few years, mainly because they had to. It used to be normal for me to have a $200+ tab on a Friday night and $75 was actually a light dart night. Now, I never spend more than about $25 and have just as much fun as I did when I was hitting it hard. My liver and my wife are both kind of happy that I don't have all the disposable income I used to have. The fact that I am no longer rolling the dice by driving when I shouldn't be doesn't hurt my feelings either.

The first question that I have, though, is if everybody knows that a DUI hotspot exists, why go there? There are a grip of bars in the valley, and if the police are targeting one bar or small area, just go someplace else. Especially if that bar is ramming it up your ass with their pricing.

 

More and more I use cabs or even a limo to go party. It's really so much cheaper. You can get a stretch limo for a couple a few hours and if there are 4-6-8 of you it's not bad at all to pay 50-60 each for piece of mind.

plus you can have fun with pulling up to places and pretending you're a big shot loser...

DUI's scare me and, even though I love camping, Tent City is never a nice place to be

 

ouch !

 

Take it from a seasoned drinker...stay at home bars suck ass...

You can way more messed up at home cheaper, and you dont have to worry about DUIS and all that BS
