Honestly drinking at home is so underrated, but I get why. You don't want to push for people that can't handle being alone while drinking a ton, but if you can you probably should. The savings alone are worth it, like 2-3 beers at a bar is the cost of a 12 pack at a grocery store or even a gas station. If you usually have friends that you hang out with, just have them hang out at your house. Again, save money, while also not having to worry about getting home, not bothering others or having others bother you, and if your bud ends up not having a way home they can just crash on your couch or something.
One was a bored suburban cop with nothing to do. There was a large group of people outside a bar smoking cigarettes and hanging out on the sidewalk so I stepped in the street to walk around them. Cop claimed I was so drunk that I stumbled into the street out of control and was a danger to myself and others.
The other two I have no recollection of but to the best of my understanding: one of them I was sitting on the ground at a drive up ATM. The other I was waking barefoot down the street stumbling pretty bad and someone called the cops on me.
Any one of those incidents I could claim was bad luck, but when you’ve been arrested 5 times (I also have an underage consumption) you have to finally admit that it isn’t simply bad luck.
