Both are soft drinks...
why would beer bother you more than coca-cola?
Football booze ban to be lifted?

Tea isn't a soft drink
Anyway. What other sports would you go to and expect to be covered in beer/soft drinks/tea ect?
And why should anyone be happy being covered in anything?

I am certainly not condoning throwing any drinks on anyone?!
I was trying to understand why someone would expect to be showered in beer at a football match if they allowed it in the stands? Further to that, had there been previous experience of having soft drinks thrown on them to give them that idea?
Tea is a soft drink in that it is not ‘hard’ or alcoholic...

This is what the clubs are putting forward in the Bundesliga:
I guess the thinking is if you can drink, then you can't be wearing the mask correctly. (I assume that muzzles would be mandatory there, and goes without saying.)
I think it unlikely we'd take a different course, although nothing is certain with this government.

Bundesliga clubs agree plan for fans to return to stadiums as early as September
Away fans would not be able to return until 2021 at the earliest under plans agreed by German clubs

At the Champions League final last year they had people walking up and down the steps with beer dispensers on their backs and card machines, you didnt need to leave your seat to get a pint. I thought that was a cracking idea (especially seeing how bloody hot it was) Maybe that's their thinking, keep people in their seats rather than hanging around the concourses in big groups, or queeing up during the match to bring trays of beers back to their seats?

Wembley I used to get pints in ?. Just hold it in the pocket or tell the steward it’s coke.

Plastic bottles getting chucked over the barrier ?.
Bundesliga are looking at introducing crowds again (obviously significantly reduced), possibly even for start of season.
However in respect of alcohol, where it is normally permitted even in your seats or standing areas, the suggestion is to not allow it in ground at all upon resumption.

Let them take it back to seats, but limit when it can be sold.
Sell it up to 5 mins after kick-off, then stop selling until 5 mins before half-time.
Sell it up to 5 mins into the 2nd half then not until full-time.
That will stop all the piss heads going backwards and forwards during the match.

I think the only acceptable reason for leaving your seat while the game is on is if you're dying for a piss. Beat the queues, have a pint, no none of that's good enough for me.
Stalls for food and drink shouldn't be open at any time while there is football being played on the pitch.

Well it's their fault they have sports you need to be sloshed in order to forget how tedious the game they're watching really is.
I don't really believe anyone actually likes baseball. It's just a place where people show up to get drunk while something occasionally happens to be going on on the pitch.

While i'm absolutely the type of person who loves a beer shower after growing up at festivals and metal & punk gigs, I don't see why it needs to change. It's three quarters of an hour, if you can't go 45 minutes without needing a drink then you should probably re-assess your drinking habits.
Or is this to cater for all the recreational pharmaceutical enthusiasts who find half time a bit tight to get a sniff and a pint in?
Not been to the new stadium yet, is the fine art of speed-smoking in the toilets at half time still a thing? Every few minutes a steward pointlessly leans in and sighs and mumbles, "no smoking in the toilets". I miss that.
