Stadium Remodeling, New Player Intros, And Wiener Dog Races. The New Cleveland Browns Experience

Who would ever want to buy and drink Budweiser beer anyway? At the tailgate you can bring some decent microbrew beer, like your Great Lakes or Hoppin' Frog. Or Guinness. Or if you don't tailgate, go to the Hard Rock for the brunch before the game....all you can eat for about the price of two stadium hot dogs. If you get hungry during the game then you didn't eat enough at the brunch.

A lot of people, apparently. Anheuser-Busch sells enough Bud\Bud Lite every year to float a battleship in it, but I digress. If my math is correct, about 1.8 BILLION gallons worth.
Guess you and me have higher standards than the general populace. There's no way in hell I'm shelling out $7.25 for a damn lite beer- there's no shortage of people that will- go figure. If you hunt really hard, you can find 16 ounce Labatt's or even Warsteiner. They keep it well hidden though. Don't want the natives getting too drunk at the game, don't ya know?
OTOH- last season they were offering a Bloody Mary Bar (with a fairly generous pour of Absolut vodka) for the same price as a Bud Lite. One guess where my booze $$$ got spent.

oh, bloody mary of course.
but on a hot summer's day there ain't nothing like pulling an ice cold can of bud out the cooler. goes down fast and won't bloat you up (meaning you can drink more than 3 of them, HA!).
my best friends when it's 90 degrees with humidity of 97% is the cooler full of bud and a bottle of kettle one for those who like clear and a bottle of bushmills for those who enjoy a little brown in their gullets. vodka served chilled of course.
cheers!

Been to many games where people wear the opposing team colors. Went to a Browns/Eagles game and there were about 25 Eagle Fans a few rows in front of us giving people the finger, taunting, etc. Security sent some 400 pound Deputies down and everything calmed down. Now, if you want to wear the opposing team jersey, fine. Just don't be an asshole and rub it in when there are a bunch of drunken fans pissed off at losing.
Exactly. Problems aren't caused by someone wearing the apposing team's jersey. They're caused by a drunk asshole wearing the apposing teams jersey. It all comes back to winning. The Browns start winning consistently and the stadium fills up with more Browns fans than the apposing team (bills last year).

Can't say I agree with that too much. A few years back we saw the panthers play (this was the year before they got Cam Newton so they were terrible mind you). My brother was laughing and having a good time with the people around us, but had at least 3 instances of drunk Browns fans hassling him going for beers or food. One instance the clowns surrounded my brother and starting talking shit for literally no reason and we almost had to throw down for it.
I'm not saying it's the norm, but I'd amend your statement to say ALL drunk assholes cause problems no matter the jersey they have on. The honest to God solution to the problem is to make beer cheap in the stadium. People get hammered so much in the parking lot before the games they act like morons once they get in the gates.

You're absolutely right, I meant it to sound that way, but I didn't check it before I posted. I had problems with more Browns fans than other team fans.
I drink a few beers there, but I don't go there to fight, or be bothered by some drunk. My wife knows when I'm getting irritated and calms me down before I get
too worked up.

Oh gotcha, no worries. Yea I just don't get it. I mean sure the Browns make us all miserable and I've downed many a beer to that effect, but the idea of fighting over a football game is so unbelievably dumb. To want to physically hurt someone over something you have zero control (i.e. the score of the game) over is baffling to me. I suppose it's just the small dick complex though.

Go to an Eagles game wearing a Giants or Redskins jersey. Better be packing.

I remember my first beer

Iirc, philly has a court in their stadium.
That doesn't happen by accident.
No, it doesn't.
It has to be pretty bad to have to assign a Magistrate to the stadium to hear and set bond for the volumes of arrests at games. They must just hold them in a prison bus and lug all of them off to the city/county jail after the game.

Personally I always liked the cheerleader idea, but always liked winning a lot more... someday maybe we can have both... free beer is cool with me too.

I remember old Vets stadiums having a court on the premises. Current web site for Lincoln Financial Field has
nothing in it regarding court/jail although that may be a feature they keep on the down low. Was interested to see
that they don't cut off booze after the third quarter. The booze flows the entire game.

Vets had a proper jail, as well as a court of common pleas with a magistrate permanently assigned to that location following a bad incident in 97.
Lincoln has several holding cells, and that court was closed in 07 I believe due to a decrease in incidents.

I stand corrected. Thanks. I knew that at one time they had a Magistrate assigned to the stadium on Sundays.

The old stadium had those cages that they used to lock trouble makers in between the dog pound and the rest of the stadium. Not sure if they were official 'jails' but I know cops put people in them for how long I don't know.

Gee, I wonder if the Cleveland Municipal Court is looking to fulfill the position of "Cleveland Browns Stadium Magistrate". With my experience, I should apply.

Why not a "largest breasts" or largest penis contest. Those would get some attention, if that is what the team wants.
