    As against alcohol consumption (to excess defined as being impaired), I fail to see why this is news worthy.

    Gators and underage possession of alcohol. Now DUI I could see as news worthy... Minor in possession is a bad idea but not what I would consider news worthy.

    This was posted in another topic also Tom, and I appreciate your viewpoint.

    Things must be slow at the Palm Beach Post for them to have to did this up after the fact. It also speaks to their agenda.

    Actually it's kind of gratifying as a Gator to think that someone has to did this deep to get news about the Gators.

    We had some guys get cited for MIP as well. It's against the law, although I support changing the drinking age to 18, so the deserved the citation. But it's not really news worthy, and in this case what the heck took them so long, are they sleeping on their job of busting the Gators? :)
