$2 Beer Night is Here

[alphasigko]

I want to hear a great "Tastes Great" from one side and a "Less Fling" from the other side.

Great clip! Maybe a thread to post the Best Lite Beer (Bud or Miller) Commercials? "Dilly, Dilly!"

It’s a fine Pilsner.

Let's not get carried away. But it's better than most "lights".

You’ve obviously forgotten what it’s like to be a poor student.

What, you're too good for Keystone or Natty Light?

About 4 season at the Rent too late.....Might have put some more butts in the seats

It’s $2 and you’re on a college campus …..try to shed that part of you that thinks you need to go to New Haven to enjoy a pizza or wait in line for two hours at Treehouse to enjoy a beer.

A $2 beer is a Time Machine that will take you back to a time where you were not a pretentious a— hole who bores the crap out of anyone unlucky enough to hear your thoughts on beer or scotch or pizza or, really, anything else.

The cost to restore you to your better self is just $2. Salvation has never been so cheap.

Brings to mind Cleveland Indians 10 cent beer night 1974. Max 6 beers per purchase and no limit on purchase’s per night. Didn’t end well.

Things deteriorated throughout the game, so that by the seventh inning most of the sober fans had left the stadium. By the end of the night hundreds of fans had run onto the field to attack the visiting Rangers who were defending themselves with bats and the Cleveland manager ordered his own players to help the Rangers so they had to grab bats and attack their own fans. (who were armed with knives, chains, and clubs fashioned from seats and parts of the stadium that they had torn apart)

Brings back memories of The Candy Store in Fort Lauderdale when the bar patrons did exactly that across the pool during my spring break days in the 80s.

Is there a limit?

Have you tried buying a beer at Gampel? You'll be lucky to get through the line twice by halftime.

 

[ElGreco]

I do feel a little worried about drunk PC fans in town making us look bad…

Don’t worry about a handful of young immature wanna bees

This. And won't get one at the half. If you get in line at start 1/2 time you might make it back to seat at under 16 time out. But at least you are already standing for tip off.

The absolute nerve of some folks to speak ill of this fine Pilsner beer. Miller Lite is the nectar of the gods, unfortunately I will not be attending this athletic contest of great heights - but I will be enjoying MANY of these drinks from the couch in my man cave.

Bathroom line is worse, sometimes your cut off by the popcorn line when they weave between each other. I’ve known brave souls with bad bowels run into some serious issues.

Cheers.. Tastes like another

I should bring 100 ones and toss em into the student section and tell ‘em drinks on me.

Getting ahead of the crowd at Red Rock and paying $6. I won’t be sitting in any popcorn line tonight!

 

[UConnKev]

Here now:

They are going through a lot!

You got some extra ounces, too.

I don’t even drink beer, but all I got to say is every home game should be $2 beer night. The crowd tonight was f. U. CK. I. N. G great

Me, neither, but if this is what happens, sell it for a buck.

It was a great crowd. PC fans crying that we made then play at Gampel instead of XL.

I know past games were listed as sellouts, but this truly felt like a sellout. Longest food/beer lines all year, longest car train out of the garage all year. Shout out the $2 beers and an awesome year at Gampel. Despite my handle, Gampel was much more fun than XL this year.

I was at the Seton Hall game. Were you the guy dressed up as Hurley and being shown on the Jumbotron?

Yes sir! I’m going to do it 1-2 times a year I think. Looking to perfect the look and act. Just for fun.

The guy next to me at the game (don't know him) , claimed he has a friend who works for the distributor. He said his friend told him the $2 beer promo was to reduce inventory at Gampel since it was the last game of the year there. Makes some sense but who knows?

Sounds BS. How could there be an inventory when they never sell it to begin with. The Millers they normally sell at Gampel are the screw tops. They never sell small beers anywhere anymore, and that’s what were $2 tonight.

Every home game should be packed with plastered students.
