    Don’t liquor licences in your country require serving water?

    In (all?) of Australia to have a liquor licence requires you also serve free water. That can be tap water, but it has to be available as easily as the alcohol. Typically from a bartender, waiter etc depending on the establishment providing it for you.

      Country?

      This is America.

      Liquor licenses are handled by the state or municipality.

      At this particular venue (Xfinity Center)…no, I don’t think so. Most of the vendors that are around are in carts with just beer, water, hard seltzer…maybe a canned cocktail or wine cooler.

      Maybe at the counter-service vendors, where you could get mixed drinks. Possibly.

      They do have water bottle stations though. And you can bring in one empty reusable bottle or one factory-sealed water bottle upto 1 gallon.

      Who tf thinks to bring water to a concert tho. You pregame in the parking lot and after your second or third $30 beer…then you realize you really need a water.

        So vendors are gouging people and you blame the manufacturer? That is funny. $15 would buy you a 12 pack of tall boys and you’d get change back. Ffs

        Well, you. Now. For one.
