[CW: Alcohol] How to covertly drink while watching a theatre performance?
I am gonna be watching a play next week and there is no way I am doing it sober. I also don't wanna get blitzed all at once before the show and slowly crash into the wasteland of reality with time. I would like to slowly and steadily drink during the event.
I am not worried about the part involving sneaking the alcohol in. I will have to figure that out on my own.
My main concern is the choice of alcohol and how to drink it.
On paper, something clear like vodka or white rum mixed in water seems ideal since just by looking one cannot tell it apart from water. But the stench is quite unmistakeable so I am open to suggestions on what to drink.
Regarding how to drink it, the smell of the alcohol makes it a bit difficult to drink while watching. If I pop open my bottle/container the smell might give me away. I really don't know how people around me would react to that so I wanna avoid that. Other option is to drink in the washroom or something but that would require me to get up every 20-30minutes which seems suboptimal. Maybe if I use one of those sipper bottles I can drink during the show without the drink making contact with open air? Again, open to suggestions on this front too.
You're viewing a single thread.
Does the theater not serve drinks? If they do and you can get away with one, buy one. Covertly refilling it would be indistinguishable from you just nursing one drink for the entire performance.
You could also use a base with a strong scent. Colas, Dr. Pepper, orange soda, etc. may have enough smell to hide your habit from those around you.
I feel for you. Nothing beats a good drink. However, in cases like this, perhaps edible cannabis is better. No smell, discreet, and enough to “just take the edge off” (for me) is about the size of a breath mint. Have some while you’re waiting in line to get in and enjoy the show.
