Here in Nashville we love any holiday that gives us an excuse to drink beer, so this is a big deal for downtown bars and restaurants. <\/p>\n<p>I heard some big numbers on the news about how the downtown bars and restaurants can only actually seat something 75,000 people on a weekend.<\/p>\n<p>To be honest, I do not drink much beer. I tend to not want the hassle of watching my intake and fretting about driving home without the risk of trouble with cops. And second, I don&#8217;t want all the extra calories. Third, I only like beer that is ice cold. I don&#8217;t want to hold a bottle in my hand and just sip on it for an hour with the heat from my hand raising the temperature of the beer. I don&#8217;t like drinking from a bottle anyway. I like a glass &#8211; and not plastic, I mean a real glass.<\/p>\n<p>Sorry if I sound so finicky, but I have learned what I like and what I don&#8217;t like and I will certainly seek out the things that I like if I have that option. Maybe once in a while I might be at the boss&#8217;s house for a backyard barbecue and have to drink a beer from a red Solo cup, but most of the time I will be seated in a sports bar or a stadium suite and enjoy an ice cold beer served in a glass along with the peanuts or Chex Mix and a good baseball game or hockey game underway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This weekend is all about Saint Patrick&#8217;s Day.
