I think a parking lot is the perfect place for an obscure event like a beer mile.
I think there should be more street races like the 150m that Bolt did and the 5th ave mile.
If it starts and finishes in the same place and the distance is accurate, then it's a legit mile event.
It should be in a parking lot outside of a bar, though.
Agreed. My god some people are anal doucheb@gs. They probably can't get insurance to allow hundreds of people drinking at a track. They will probably set it up so people can easily line the course and sit on bleachers. You know, the kinds of things promotion companies know more about than anal distance runners.
It's just like Crossfit, everybody is jealous of something new. I'll be there tomorrow, and I won't be judging every person there. I'll be drinking beer, laughing as people vomit, looking at the beautiful women Austin always presents to any event, and just having a good time in general. Have fun bitching about beer miles on a forum.
