Today I’m attending my first ever adult football game as a sober supporter. It’s going to be different as previously it was all about ‘getting beers into ya’. Hot chips combined with a bourbon and dry to be precise. I drank bourbon because it was the only full strength alcohol you could buy at the ground, and be buggered if I was going to drink mid strength beer.
In the past it was all about having a drink before the match, several during the game and a few more after it was over to either celebrate or commiserate. To be honest the game itself was secondary.
Today signifies a new beginning…yet again. I’m looking forward to it.
I will keep you posted.

Day 132 – Footy fever
Day 55 – the Footy strikes back
The Footy season has commenced. In the past this involved much anticipation, celebration and commiserations all conveniently packaged up with lashings of alcohol. Whether I was watching it at home, friends houses, the pub or attending a live match, it all simply allowed me a most convenient way to get drunk every weekend.
This will be my first season of sober Footy. Bring it on.
Till tomorrow.
