The fact you think all people had to do 50 years ago was read books and drink says enough.

That was affordable and within access for most college students? I also provided other options… so clearly I don’t think those are the ONLY Options dude… for the demographic we are talking about, that’s the usual places.

I can name a few, but they all seemingly have the same alcohol theme as well.

Which demographic are you thinking we are talking about? Provide some options instead of just beaking off. You’re not adding to the discussion here. College students, probably had to rely on public transport. Not everyone is from well off families dude.

Sounds like you just have an axe to grind about alcohol.

Or people don’t realize just how prevalent drinking was to be social or entertainment back then.

I haven’t seen much options presented that don’t reside around drinking, someone suggested taking the train to another city. Thats not an option in the USA, so it sounds like people are talking about their country like it applies to the USA….
