Awesome job!

I just went to my first NFL Football Game on Sunday (Go Packers!) and didn't drink at all. The cravings were real, and there was alcohol everywhere, but the company I was with was supportive.

It can be done!

Thanks great Tboy,
I personally wouldn't have been able to do something like that on day 4.

Congrats to you!! That's a tough environment to stay sober in!! I'm at 2 months and can't go to a game yet. Too risky.

Congrats Tboy - but I have to admit thats something which would have probably bought me undone on day 4.

Be careful - don't underestimate this thing and don't bite off more than you can chew too soon.

Look at you, Tboy - that is wonderful. I'm happy for you, even if you are a Sox fan.

Isn't it amazing?! I remember going to my first sober MLB game and being shocked that I didn't actually have to drink beer at a baseball game. It was so much more fun than I expected!

TBoy - jealous of you seeing Sir Paul at The Garden. You'll remember everything & no hangover.

Jules,
I was going to make a very similar post!! Go Yankees! Looks like we still have the wildcard, hopefully nothing changes.
