for them to not let you on a flight?

I'm at an airport bar and will be here for 5 more hours until my flight takes off

I don't want to be barred from boarding but I do want to catch a nice buzz

OBVIOUSLY DRUNK.

8/17/2008 2:02:11 PM

Don't hit on the ticket lady so she can smell your stank azz breath.

8/17/2008 2:03:06 PM

depends on how well you hold your liquor and how belligerent you are

8/17/2008 2:03:19 PM

we got a buddy onto a flight once when we had been up drinking for about 40 hours in vegas.

i single him out, b/c he was drunk enough to have passed out for an hour in the stall in the bathroom when he tried to take a shit

for the most part, if they dont think you'll be an annoyance to the other passengers, it's whatever.

8/17/2008 2:04:01 PM

You'll be fine.. I've had 4 or 5 22 oz at the bar in the SFO airport and been fine to board.. just don't act like a moron.

8/17/2008 2:04:36 PM

if you act up midflight they just toss you out a hatch

8/17/2008 2:05:12 PM

It also helps if you can get the smell off your breath. Brush your teeth or chew gum or something.

8/17/2008 2:05:15 PM

I like to think I can hold my booze pretty well. But then again, 5hours is a long time

8/17/2008 2:05:15 PM

you could maybe not drink and not have to worry about it

8/17/2008 2:05:59 PM

yup, the key is to not stand out

i got on a flight wasted and passed out for the entire flight

pretty sure i dry heaved into the barf bag a few times for good measure

8/17/2008 2:06:06 PM

as long as you keep your mouth shut and stay composed then you'll be ok. it wouldn't hurt to slam down some breath mints right before you board to cover some of the booze smell

8/17/2008 2:06:42 PM

^^^blasphemy!!!

8/17/2008 2:07:09 PM

As a side note, those made upsafety notes in evans photogallery made me pee my pants.

"Ocassionally you may feel the need to throw your hands up and wave them around like you just don't care" aahaha fuckin' a

I'm not sure why, but this has always worked for me.

8/17/2008 2:07:56 PM

aha, whatever the limit is, im sure brett can surpass it

and somehow get hurt doing it

8/17/2008 2:08:56 PM

you'll be fine man.. as long as you aren't being a loud obnoxious drunk they aren't going to care or probably even notice

8/17/2008 2:10:24 PM

this bar charges far too much for alcohol for me to be getting drunk.

and somebody's gotta be sober enough to make sure Biofreak70 gets home

8/17/2008 2:10:55 PM

yea i think i paid $7 per glass of vodka last time i was in the airport..which was last week

i get to expense report that shit though, haha

8/17/2008 2:11:27 PM

^^^^we are going to the bars when I get back in town tonite

8/17/2008 2:12:52 PM

If you can walk without stumbling and talk coherently you should be good. Good luck.

8/17/2008 3:03:34 PM

ok this sucks... I'm still in the first airport and due to all the flight changes I'm sober. F this s

8/17/2008 8:14:32 PM

welcome to my life

8/17/2008 8:15:27 PM

Just wait till you get on the plane. It'll at least pass the time faster.

8/17/2008 8:15:54 PM

haha and I can buy $7 beers

8/17/2008 8:17:00 PM

You're already going to be doing that at the airport bar so what's the difference?

8/17/2008 8:18:36 PM

i was redfaced, but nice. that's all you have to be. bleary eyed but polite.

8/17/2008 8:21:56 PM

I really don't remember a couple of flights to or from Vegas.. haha

Those are the best

8/17/2008 8:23:17 PM

the train is better

train drinking is where its at

8/17/2008 8:25:19 PM

airplane bottles for the win - get through security with them and then drinks drop about 80% in price

8/17/2008 8:26:50 PM

just don't be as drunk as these two british women a few weeks ago. They were on holiday and during the flight they got so drunk that the flight attendants refused to serve them any more drinks so one of the two ladies got out a bottle of vodka and started drinking...then they tried to open the cabin door at 30,000+ feet because they wanted fresh air. After they were wrestled away one of the two drunktards smashed the bottle of vodka over a flight attendants head...or something along those lines.
