In a remarkable gesture of restraint and moderation by event organisers, patron of Australian premier motor sport event – the Bathurst 1000 – are having limits imposed on them regarding how much booze they’re allowed to take on-site. The daily limit is one slab (24 x 375mL cans) per person.
“But more restrained spectators would be able to slake their thirst, if not their craving for alcohol, with up to 36 cans of low or mid-strength beer. Wine lovers must make do with no more than four liters of cask wine per day and combinations of the options would not be allowed.”
Sometimes you’ve just got to get by on 9 litres of beer a day.
