I know that Rogers Centre has at least one alcohol free section in the 500 level - maybe there should be other sections as well?
I never understood people getting smashed at a sporting event, let alone a playoff game. I get that alochol can liven up the experience, especially if you're just watching a random regular season game. But a playoff game is intense enough. If you wanna get lit, just go to a bar or do it from the comfort of your own home.
I was at a Jays game with a large work related group this summer. I normally have one beer or no beers at Jays/Raptors games and that night I got pretty drunk. Of course that included a few drinks at dinner before the game and a lot of free beers at the game.
Other than that, some people aren't real fans and are a the game to drink and others might have drinking problems. I wouldn't be surprised if Pagen was in that last group but obviously that's complete speculation.
