[quote=Chico23231;812441]I survived. Luckly the campground was heavily wooded which helped and we ran 5 floor fans in our camping area. It was upper 90s, but at night really cooled off while we were on the lake catfish fishing from 7-midnight. Pasted the time playing the afformentioned cornhole game which i prefer to call corn toss and relaxing in the water. Suprisingly the campground was 2/3rds full, but most had ac rvs. Basil Hayden and Loose Cannon IPA helped me through. Of course it wouldnt been a trip if I was threaten by a Park Ranger with a $250 fine for drinking a State Park.[/quote]

Fruit juice/vodka - in plastic cups @ state parks.

Or if you don't feel like paying a $250 fine. Use Gatorade if it that makes you feel more like a man.

lol, very true. it was cool, ended up zipping up the bottle coolie and of course ginger and whisky was in a cup. I think they wanted the appearence of alcohol to be limited. Of course its was the approach by the park ranger that rubbed me the wrong way. We never stopped drinking and never got a ticket. Funny to me, i can walk around with a gun in the state park, but not a beer.

So your saying they do not allow drinking in state park camp grounds? Just another Fu%$ing stupid law and another reason not to go camping.

Apparently from what I heard Park Rangers are like little Hitlers going around handing out tickets all the time and just being overall jack asses.

Woo...went to a minor league baseball game last night in Lancaster...until the sun went down it was miserable!

They did a great job trying to keep us cool...an ice cold sprinkler, free cherry slushies, cups of ice cubes and free water.

When guy approached, first thing outta his mouth: "I could give you a $250 fine right now."

First thing I did was roll my f*cking eyes. I mean, if i or any 5 of us was hammered drunk being an a$$holes, I completely understand. But we were chill, cooking lunch and playing corntoss.

They had 7 rangers patroling a fairly small state park with under 100 campers. I understand loading up for the hot weekend just in case, but they had 2 posted at the damn pool that already had 3 lifeguards, laughing and having a good time. Looked at my guys and said that our tax money.

Not really, considering how idiocy and lack of respect for whatever one is using tends to go up when the booze is consumed.

Are there posted rules in the park regarding alcohol?

Having camped with my 4 year old son next to a bunch of drunken a**-holes who partied until 3:00 a.m., I completely understand the restrictions.

According to the man, if we had rented a cabins (they had like 10 cabins you could rent for a minimum of a week) we could drink inside there and it was prohibited anywhere else. If I wanted to drink inside I woulda stayed home.
