For you to do in public with your students while they throw a kegger for the game IS a problem, you condone their behavior for they see the issue as simply drinking, and miss the point entirely about "...sensuality, lusts, drunkenness, carousing, drinking parties... Which is perhaps a rather precise description of undergrad parties don't you think?
Don't know if you have been there, but college students don't come together to "have a beer" and watch the game, the game is the last thing on their minds after the first couple of beers.
