1. Buisnesses need to realize that dead men drink no beer.

2. First of all, I'm not a drinker but I don't understand how drinking is celebrating

Thanksgiving,Christmas, kids birthday parties etc. I thought the whole idea was to celebrate family not be blitzed out of your mind. Sometimes so much that you don't even remember the occasion.

3. I think the idea is that because it's the eve of a long holiday that there would be more risk ...

... getting and trading the virus and bringing it home. When are we going to act like it's the pandemic it is? If we as a nation would do as required the sooner they'd get back to normal business.

4. Before this year ... it was considered "College Night"

The night before Thanksgiving has become the night when college kids get home for the Thanksgiving weekend, but go out to the bars to hang with friends on the night before.

I don't think the idea is so much about drinking as it is about socializing and seeing your old friends that you haven't seen since you went off to school. There's so much to tell your friends and hear about their experiences. Other people go out too, but it's mainly the College Kids' night out.

THIS YEAR, things are totally different because of Covid. Now the fear is that everyone could be carrying the virus, or bringing it home to their family and friends.
