1. ASU should not have a Fermentation Science major IMO.

2. Drugs are illegal and drinking at that age is too. Majority of students are under 21 so having a Fermentation Science class sends wrong signals.

3. Guns are legal to have as stated by the 2nd amendment.

If drugs are illegal, one would think drug stores would be put out of business.

And the purpose of the fermentation sciences program isn't to get drunk either. It's no different than Jesus turning water into wine.

I understand that. I still have my opinion about it and do not like it.

Why can't I drive around with a beer in my hand?

Point of clarity for anyone who lumps all beer together with other "sins:"

The microbrew industry is a far cry from shotgunning Natty Lights till you puke. It is a fine craft that has more to do with chemistry, entrepreneurship, culture, and craftsmanship than it does with altering the mind of the drinker. I had the pleasure of trying my hand at microbrewing this summer with a friend whose been doing it for a few years now. We brewed a pale ale using local honey. The initial brewing process was a tedious six hours of sanitation, boiling, stiring, and straining. Two weeks later we spent another two hours bottling and capping. Two weeks after that I enjoyed a few of our product. It was tasty and full. I didn't kill anyone after and the world wasn't consumed with hell fire.

I am just thankful for the 4 hours between a bunch of people tailgating and the ride down the mountain. Many of us don't stay overnight and have to hit the road with our fellow fans. I like to have a couple beers but there is plenty of time before the game. Then there is 4 hours to get straight.

Not sure, but it seems AppGrad1 is either being facetious or speaking rhetorically.

There was no post at 4:46 am on 8/27, but if you are talking about Beau Foster's post at 5:46 am then yes, I saw it and I cannot imagine how anyone could possibly interpret that as making fun of Christianity. And ifyou have any other questions, please PM me because I'm not letting this thread hijack go any further.

My point is/was that we have enough tailgating that I don't feel the need for selling beer at games. This is only my opinion. There are obviously those who would like it sold and that is their opinion which is fine.
I've sat beside obnoxious people who were drunk and ones who were not drunk. It boils down to people being rude...
