Avoid Making it the 'Stupid' Bowl: Don't Drink & Drive

BeerBottles_Football.jpg No matter which team you're rooting for, if you're headed out tomorrow to celebrate the Super Bowl, don't get all stupid about it. "Law enforcement officers around Southern California will be on the lookout for drunk drivers on Super Bowl Sunday," reports abc7.com. That doesn't mean you can't party, it just means you should plan to party responsibly, or face the consequences; "The CHP and local law enforcement organizations will deploy extra DUI patrols," and they have no qualms about issuing citations and making arrests. Of course, landing your drunk ass in jail is a far better fate than what can happen, or what has happened in the past: "Last year on Super Bowl Sunday, 12 people were killed and 167 others were injured in alcohol-related traffic accidents statewide."

A friend of mine was talking to a cop the other day and he said "it's pretty much like, "take your pick" of any car on the 101, there's most likely a drunk driver behind the wheel."

My plan is to drink a glass of water for each beer I drink and call it quits earlier than usual. Then crack one open when I get home, safe!
