Irony in Starting Beer Sales in Game Against BYU

[kxtop]

There is a funny irony about starting first time beer sales in Neyland in a game against BYU, the driest of the dry universities in all the landone must wonder if beer sales will be brisk among the visitors...like the Baptist they might taste the evil nectar when out of town

What happens in Neyland stays in Neyland.

 

[aaronvol]

They are already tempted with caffeine everywhere.

BTW, if you are ever in Utah, Polygamy Porter rocks!

If they were good Mormons they would forfeit the game.

Yeah but they have polygamy and have twice as much fun,
or if it doesen't go your way, twice as much pain?

Keeping one wife happy is hard enough, but more than one, oh holy crap. How do they handle the drama among the wives?

I had the unfortunate luck of having 3 wives, but with the 3rd one becomming the charm, thank God.
If I had to endure any more like my first 2 wives, I'd definately be an alcoholic or possibly worse.

Glad to hear you found the one. I found one that would put up with me and we have been together for 37 years. My best friend has been married 4 times so I know I am very lucky.

irony is UT waited till now to sell beer in a sporting venue...man, a lot of lost revenue over the years...

GO BIG ORANGE!

 

[GreveHaller]

They were afraid the sales of caffeinated beverages would plummet and had to make up the revenue stream

Your story sounds a lot like the story of this man.

 

[The Crimson Cried]

They know that people with that many wives will do anything for a beer.

Being married to one and having 3 on the payroll will make you wanna drink if you don’t already!

Sounds like UT with coaches lately

I lived in Utah for 4 years and used to go fishing with a BYU alum. The joke was always “how do you keep a Mormon from drinking all of your beer?” “Just bring another Mormon .”

 

[Kngsport VFL]

I'll do my drinking before the game. It will be at least $10-12 to get a beer in the stadium, if it's like concert sales.

It's weird that the people that liked the OP's post the first time didn't like it the second.

Does this mean the Beer Barrell for KY game can come back? Kinda disingenuous not to, but then again, the barrell doesn’t bring any $$$, so it “may send the wrong message”?

Yes. Ironic even. Is it a conspiracy? I liked the 2nd one but not the first to restore some balance.

I thought about doing that. But, it seemed too asymmetrical to mess with. Guess I screwed that up, too.

Nah, you didn't screw anything up. Go Vols!

 

[Volle]

Reminds me of the old joke: "Wherever you find four Mormons, you'll find a fifth".
