I at first thought they were crazy with the enforcement of the no open container law on the Experience but now after getting a better understanding it makes total sense. I agree that it will help clean up downtown. We like hanging out downtown on the Experience. It's one of the best places in the world to people watch. Everyone should always feel safe, especially in a tourist area and that feeling was starting to escape down there. They had to try something before it was too late.
Now if you would like to purchase a frosty brew or reasonably priced mixed drink there are a few spots you need to know about...
California Casino bars- $2 Stella's, $3 Jose 1800 Silver
Fremont Casino bars - $1 house margarita or pina colada, $2 Heineken or Corona's, $3 Redbull Vodka
Mermaids - super fast, really nice drink servers
