Anyone else drink heavily at LAN parties?

For the LAN parties i have been to i always take at least half a block (12 tinnies) and drink them over the course of the evening, usually after a couple of jugs at the pub. It's how UT2k4 and CS:S was meant to be played 😉

I don't usually get my a$$ kicked playing cos the drinks are spread out (tho i usually stay pretty drunk for most of the nightand have enjoyed the LAN parties i've been boozed for far more than the sober ones 😛

But i've never seen anyone else boozing, perhaps you're average LAN party-er just isn't into the grog i guess?
 
Any LAN party I host, drinking is standard. Granted, by the end of the evening, things might be getting a bit sloppy game-wise, but the comments and reactions get better and better!
 
I don't go to LAN parties, but back in my college days, there were about 8 of us who would all play in the campus computer labs (to which we had keys 🙂 ). Two of us always brought copious amounts of alcohol and the rest of them thought we were weird for it.
 
I find that I drinnk at LAN parties only when others are drinking as well... Otherwise, why get drunk its a social environment thing.
 
My Roommates and I used to come back from the bars all the time, and play drunken CS online, hosting our own server...we could pwn(notice my use of the l33t vernacular) most anybody that played with us...mainly b/c we were playing locally, and they weren't, but it was fun.
 
Czar ... don't your buddies do 2 day long lan parties .... that way you can drink the first day a LOT ... then taper your drinking over the last 7 or 8 hours of day 2. 🙂
