I am gonna be watching a play next week and there is no way I am doing it sober. I also don’t wanna get blitzed all at once before the show and slowly crash into the wasteland of reality with time. I would like to slowly and steadily drink during the event.

I am not worried about the part involving sneaking the alcohol in. I will have to figure that out on my own.

My main concern is the choice of alcohol and how to drink it.

On paper, something clear like vodka or white rum mixed in water seems ideal since just by looking one cannot tell it apart from water. But the stench is quite unmistakeable so I am open to suggestions on what to drink.

Regarding how to drink it, the smell of the alcohol makes it a bit difficult to drink while watching. If I pop open my bottle/container the smell might give me away. I really don’t know how people around me would react to that so I wanna avoid that. Other option is to drink in the washroom or something but that would require me to get up every 20-30minutes which seems suboptimal. Maybe if I use one of those sipper bottles I can drink during the show without the drink making contact with open air? Again, open to suggestions on this front too.

    Go in alpha with some tall bois. They come in abvs from 4 to 10 now so you can easily make due with one if you want.

    Also, and I can’t stress this enough, you need to wait until it’s dead quiet to crack it open. The more brazen about it you are the less likely anyone will say anything.

      This kinda if brazenness happened at a play I saw. I don’t think the guy fully understood the concept of theatre and when the actor came to the edge of the stage and started speaking, the guy in the audience thought it was directed at them, so answered back. The actor just rolled with it. But there was a lot of backlash from the audience lol.
