If children were allowed in bars, this would have never happened. I blame the government.
For the modern NFL fan, you can now scratch family as well as country from the list of things they believe in.
These days, that will get you shot.
Here are some other game day options for the Valentis:
1. If you must go out to watch a game, hire a reliable babysitter.
2. Stay home and watch the game.
A close relative is an alcoholic, and the event that made her quit drinking in her early 20’s, join AA and return to Church happened when she was at a dive bar during the day. The bathroom toilets had overflowed, making the entire floor wet and sticky. An alcoholic couple had brought their toddler to the bar. The child was crawling around on the floor, while the parents got drunk.
It was, as they call it, her moment of clarity. She’s been dry 30+ years now.
Wisconsin allows kids in bars any time of day or night; how else can they drive their parents home? ;)
Having grown up in Milwaukee, WI it really IS true. I spent a LOT of time in bars with Grandparents, Parents and Uncles.
I admit it - I was a cute blond curly-haired little girl and I’d dance on the bar for a Pepsi or a Hershey Bar, LOL! I grew up to be a contributing member of Society, and I’m not a lush, either.
I do draw the line at eating pickled eggs, though. ;)
What’s wrong with this, it is the government’s fault (Trump probably) cause you can’t bring a kid into a bar. Not the parents fault ... bad law. (/s)
Sixty, seventy years ago in NYC - not a problem.
I think my parents could have been arrested any number of times when I was growing up.
A family I was in Indian Guides owned a local eatery/bar and from 7-12 I was frequently in the bar while my parents were enjoying dinner. One of my 6th grade teachers was also a part time bartender as well 2 nights a week and we socialized as she worked.
Now, tell me how that would go over on Facebook circa 2018 vs 1978.
