I'm sitting at an airport now and was eating breakfast about an hour ago. There were at least 4-5 people with either beers or wine at 7:15 am. Think these are people that just got off some red eye flight or do people really drink that kind of booze with their pancakes? i probably travel by air 4-5 times per year and can't recall seeing much of this on prior flights.

Edit: I know that things are different at the airport- seeing this just made me wonder if people do this at home too?

Airport is a place famous for that. Depending on where you are it could be travelers from other areas. If it is a place like BTR then who the f knows

You can't drink all day if you don't start in the morning...Probably just taking the edge off if the are nervous about flying?

I see dudes at circle K buying tall boys at 7:30 am all the time. They appear dressed for work, too.

I've worked shift work before so times of day really had no bearing.

I'm suprised they serve alcohol that early in the airport.

You can't judge peoples drinking habits at an airport. Airport drinking is way different than non airport drinking.

I do shift work, and I used to drink in the morning after a night shift. A group of us used to go to Louies and have a waffle and pound a few longnecks once a month.

Flying often means vacation or ending of a business trip. In both occasions, drinking at 7 am is more than acceptable.

When flying, I'll always get a drink in the morning.

I'll also drink in the morning when on beach vacations or tailgating, or when special circumstances dictate such a thing.

ETA: Not sure how I forgot fishing, probably because of all the beer

Every morning, without fail, I see one or two people buy 1-2 tall boy beers and PPP it open. Typically they drive trucks and appear on their way to a manual labor job.

There are a group of men who sit out in front of the convenient store near my school every morning and drink beer. It makes it hard for us to convince the kids that education is important.

OMG 4-5 drinking at the airport in the morning!! Guess what, people go on what's called vacations. Who doesn't drink at the airport when you're headed to the beach?

For you to wonder if these same people drink at home at 7am is pretty absurd.

If you're going to be on an airplane all day, you pretty much have to get a bloody mary that morning
