The teams the Sox have been fielding will do that to you.

Approximately 67% of White Sox fans reported to have drunk before the game starts, the study showed.

According to a similar study, 49% of White Sox fans also reported to have "likely missed some or all of the game due to drinking too much," placing them in the No. 1 spot once again.

 

White Sox baseball, you need to be blotto to watch it, or manage the team.

i live 5 minutes from the new Braves park...I can confirm people drink quite a bit...and I am glad to see how much cheaper our beers are there! Pre and post gaming in ATL is the real problem though. the park is literally an entertainment complex with like 12 bars built into the outside of the stadium...and 10pm and later is just a puke fest.

Was this funded by from the 108?

Finally, a little recognition. Do tall boys count as 1.25 drinks?

Sigh this makes me misty-eyed.

Picking up some tall boys before hopping on the green line to drink in the parking lot before heading in is just one of my very favorite things. None of those things by themselves are good (green line is good), but together ... incredible.

Does this count before the game too or just at the game? Cause I don't go in until I'm 4-5 deep.

I guess they never checked out the left field bleachers at a game on the north side. By the way, I think this survey was a major waste of time.

49 bucks for 2.8 drinks at LAA. Yikes

 

If this is accurate, that’s close to 2.5 billion in alcohol sales alone. The idea that teams that have been soaking their customers for products at something like 1000% above cost minimum, while collecting tv revenues that alone exceed expenses, are broke is laughable.

Hard to believe Philadelphia is last.

Why do you think he was so interested in coming out of retirement...

[Rowand44 715]

Never been more proud of us!

[thxfrthmmrs 652]

Do we know if these are Sox fans? I would think these are North Siders coming to the south side drinking and watching baseball.

Surprised how low Milwaukee is. Wisconsin always bragging about their drinking. Pshhh.

I'm going to throw this out there, but njonlinegambling.com may not be the most rigorous polling unit

Yes, they will, and they will do that in mind-numbing ways. I have had a few myself to help forget many things.

[SonofaRoache 1,519]

Not gonna lie, me and wifey and our other Sox couple friends have skewed those numbers a bit. I think it also helps that our fans drink at the game mostly, because of the limited numbers of surrounding places to drink. 

[Texsox 758]

Now the TLR hire makes perfect sense!! He's our leader!

[Texsox 758]

Philly ranks last?? No focking way Philly is the lightest drinking fans in baseball.
