Argos bring tailgating to Toronto! But liquor bureaucrats poop on the party

the mantra of the left.open bars are great but .if it isnt an open bar.. tax the hell out of it…..this of curse goes triple for lizzie may….who never passed an open bar..

Just to clarify, beer is $4 a can at the Argonauts Tailgates.

The liberals will NEVER approve anything that does not profit them or their friends.

If it is a wrong thing, dangerous, a stupid thing, a criminal act or an evil against society, no should be allowed to drink beer at a tailgate party. And that would of course include those beers sold in the parking lot for the over the top price of 8 Bucks each. If its wrong, its wrong. But, it adults over 18 can legally drink beer, they should be legally able to bring their beer which they may have paid $2.50 or $3.00 each at a local high priced liquor store. The gov’t is still raking huge tax dollars at $2.50 a beer.
This country is one weird place. Murder someone and do 5 years at the club. Drink a beer at a tailgate and the cops will be all over you. Have a cold one on the beach and pay a $280.00 fine. The real reason for these rules is that they just want to be able to legally rip you off. Public drunkenness or driving while impaired is one thing, but for these young folks to have some fun at a football game should be well within the lines.

All this and I dont even go to tailgate parties.

Does anyone know what the stance of the franchise or league is? Did they try to push for people having the right to bring in their own alcohol to tailgate?

It gives the bureaucrats some purpose to their useless existence. In a way you’re killing their fun by not giving them something to do. It gets quite boring living in ivory towers.

No fun allowed.

Argo fans need as much cheap beer as possible to watch these losers!
OSKEE WEE WEE!

Oh how unfortunate , my heart goes out to you for your loss. ;-)

How much does it cost to watch TO battle it out all year for the CFL cellar position? In any other real football town free beer would be needed to entice shell shocked football fans back into the stadium to witness a string of hopeless massacres.

As an Argos season ticket holder, I am OK with paying reasonable prices for A beer before the game as opposed to paying the extortionate prices inside the stadium. The tailgate on Thursday was a success according to the Argos president. We shall see how things go on July 13th when the Argos host Ottawa.

Same shit in Winnipeg. Sure you can tailgate at their special section outside the stadium but charge you 8 bucks for a beer, yay.

acuuna Once again well said, keep up the good comments

Actually Keith,

It is more likely that after getting hammered, the union bureaucrat will phone in sick to collect his day’s pay.

More Canadian half assed attempts and failure.

Canada is such a socialist shit hole – but you can get stoned off your ass and go to your unionized job and get paid for it.

“It comes down to paternalistic liquor bureaucrats who treat taxpaying adults like infants even though we’re the ones funding their salaries and gold-plated benefits.”

And Brexit demonstrated what happens when the tax paying adults get tired of being treated like trash by those who are parasites of the tax payer.

From the games I’ve seen, Argos fans NEED to drink heavily to dull the pain of being ripped off for the price of a ticket.

This was not all the case back in my day we would go to the football game with our “snack pack” you know chips bagels cokes and other stuff like BEER. no big deal. Those were the days when we were free. Do you remember? now Big brother has taken over. High beer price high hot dogs and food price invasive checking us.
If I were living Toronto there must be a nearby park our something like it, that’s where I’s have my tailgate party And to hell with everyone.

this country has turned into a putrid wasteland of bureaucratic red tape. I am disgusted with it. Canada is a shitpile of corrupt authoritarians. and the harder they push, the less I listen.
