I never understood why people drank Coors Light to begin with. I guess I'll have a harder time understanding if people continue to drink it, after this stunt.

I'll drink it if it's given to me...

I am starting to understand the light beer thing though. It's nice to be able to keep a beer in my hand at all times while camping without passing out by 3 :)

I'll drink anything handed to me, just to be polite too. But I don't have to like it. ;)

But I like working all day, then closing the day out with a good meal and a good beer (or four), as opposed to having a constant flow of beer. Growlers do this for me. ;)

I don't understand why people don't. It's often on sale and tastes pretty much the same as most beers after the first one.

It's the #1 beer in Canada. I don't mind it at all.

I don't drink shitty, watered down American beer to begin with. This only makes me not want it even more. Morons.

Even on sale it's ridiculously over-priced. I'd rather get 2 cases of superstore President's Choice Pilsner for the same price as 1 case of Coors.

I'm with you on having something good when I'm only gonna have a couple, but camping is a whole different thing. Or when there's a party like we had here on sunday. My dad just turned 70 so we hosted an open house for him. People were dropping by starting around 1 in the afternoon and the last guest left at 11 pm. Had 1 glass of wine, because someone brought a bottle of my favorite Masi, but after that strictly light beer so i could still function as a decent host :)

When it's cold, Coors can be quite refreshing. Not every beer must be a meal unto itself.

I guess that's why I don't care for it. I like drinks strong, whether beer, coffee or tea. I favoured stouts, porters, lambics, barley wines etc. Only recently did I 'tone it down' and started enjoying pilsners, ales and lagers.

One day perhaps I'll get there.

True story from my younger days (and no I'm not either one);

Buddy 1 "What beer do you got?"

Buddy 2 "Coors Light."

Buddy 1 "I fucking hate Coors Light!"

Buddy 2 "But it's free!"

Buddy 1 "I love Coors Light!"

To be fair, I did pick up some Bud Light Lime last summer, because a friend raved about it so much. I called it 'Bud Light Crime'. :lol:

I don't drink beer often at all, but Coors Light or Banquet is just fine with me. Some of the Rickards ones are good but I can never remember which one I liked.

'But it could have been a bomb' is what I'm sure someone will cry if I say it was an over reaction.

I'm sure it could have been, but I'd be more worried about parked cars, or garbage cans. The risk reward for a terrorist, is far more in favor of larger devices due to the similar risk of discovery no matter the size of the bomb used.

I'd love to have the ability to just magic up a report on placed bombs in the history of Canada and the US to make a more informed statement, but such information isn't just a few seconds on google away.
