Don't announce on a message board that you plan to do it.

I would be very careful...I had a friend get arrested for it last year...

two years ago some friends of mine got arrested for underage drinking before a USF game.  i would not advise it.  but if you do it, make sure that you arent with a big group, it will draw more attention.  there is a major taskforce of cops that are constantly roaming the parking lots.  drink at your own risk.  they probably make 20-25 arrests before every game

I would say that it's best if you don't do it at a tailgate.  TPD and OPD are very tough on underage tailgating.

They roam through all parking lots both in uniform AND undercover; especially the mall lot at RayJay which seems to be the place students park.  If you are in a crowd of mostly students, you can bet that the police will come by at some point.

Bad Boys. Bad Boys. Whachya Gonna Do??

Oh, and if you are gonna break the law, don't be a stupid criminal.  No visible bottles or cans.  No kegs.  At least have SOME 'plausible deniability.'  I would hate to see you on Jay Leno.

Yeah -- don't do it.  Really.  Stupid way to make your way onto the cops' website.

But if you do, please agree to not come back and declare how unfair it is, what buttheads the cops are, you are a victim, yadda...

Accept the gamble and if you lose, lose with class.

Yeah...don't do it.

And listen to Dad's advice...if you do get caught, please feel free to NOT stop by here and whine and cry about it.

very good advise!  Thanks!

if i got arrested for drinking in public underage, id only have myself to blame...

the beer in mcdonalds cup technique has always worked well for me at buc games...weird drinking beer through a straw...if you dont have anything out, does anyone have any right to suspect you?

Grain alcohol in a Power aid bottle is too easy. Can't taste it, and still get hammered. Have a cooler filled with Pepsi, Power Aid, etc... Spike some of the bottles, but not all of them. Make the cops work hard if they're gonna take you down. And if they do take you in, puke on them (sorry Gene). Next time I get pulled over for speeding, I'm gonna put a booger in his book when I'm signing for the ticket.
