[Octave]

How much are giant airport beers these days?

 

[Chef2]

Not sure yet.
Started tab.
Told barkeep that I wanted the largest blue moon they had……if they had to wheel out the keg, then wheel er out.
They could be $400 a piece and I wouldn’t care right now.

Hope you're on expense account.

OTOH, my monthly SSI check hit today. Had no problem forking over $10 for a beer at the local college baseball game. Why be mostly retired if you can drink on a sunny March afternoon at the ballpark?

I know I'm late, but keep your shoes on and don't take your blade out of your bag!

 

[User 149557]

I still have this bedrock principle rooted in the year 2004 that I won’t pay double figures for a beer. I’ve paid $9 all the time at baseball games. I’ll pay way more than that for a cocktail. But I refuse to go up to $10 for beer. At some point I’ll accept inflation as a normal part of life, but not yet.

I remember when I got over the mental block of paying $10 for a meal that wasn’t in a nice restaurant in the early 2000’s. That was a hurdle, too.

Back in my traveling (and drinking) days, I’d usually have to fly out early in the morning. So I’d get to the airport by 6 am to tie a load on before getting on the plane.

It feels like the last place on Earth where it’s perfectly acceptable to be drunk at sunrise.

 

[Octave]

Good for mind-weary people to rest their eyes on the plane.

 

[Regan MacNeil]

He’s dead tired.

Make your layover in Denver, Detroit or Chicago next time.

I had a three-hour layover in Detroit in January. They have CASINO gambling on your phone. I made about $700 over three hours, relatively risk-free, playing baccarat.
