As a kid I had to use some innovation with the presence of strict under age drinking laws.
The summertime calls for days being spent outdoors among friends, while knocking back a few cold brews. The problem is that if a cop sees you drinking a beer in a “no-drinking” zone, he’s going to come hassle and ticket you. So you can do one of two things: 1.) comply with the law, or 2.) outsmart the police. If you choose to comply then more power to you. Personally, I always choose the latter.
Here’s how I outsmart in this situation: pocket concealment. First of all, you have to have a beer bottle that is small enough to fit in your pocket. Never attempt to conceal a beer bottle that is any bigger than 16 ounces, and certainly NO 40 ouncers. I recommend a 12 ounce bottle. Place the bottle in your front pocket and conceal the protruding neck with your hand and wrist like the picture shown above. The important thing to remember when performing this technique is to always project confidence. If you look like you have something to hide, then you will be easy to spot. However if you keep your head up, shoulders straight, and make confident eye-contact the technique should be easy to pull off.
This is how I outsmarted the cops when it came to under age drinking. It’s funny, now that I’ve been of age for seven years now I still find myself using it from time to time.
