Further back in the thread he was saying that people go back and forth to the bar or toilets too much which he reiterated in the post I quoted. I was saying that the poster is assuming that people are getting up to get a drink yet there may be other reasons. Does he ask everyone who is getting up where they are going? Why is it his business? Why is it any different if someone is getting a drink or going to do something else? They are still pushing past and apparently ruining his entire viewing experience regardless.
My point was that it isn't fair to pick out and have a go at people that like a drink without having a go at everyone else as well. If people want a drink that is their business and he should mind his own.

What on earth are you on about? Medical conditions? That is clearly nothing to do with this discussion.
I've never told anyone what to do. When people drink excessively and go to the bar or the toilet numerous times in 40 minutes and so push past me that is very much MY business. I paid the same amount of money for my ticket as they did. My behaviour is not affecting their enjoyment. Their behaviour is affecting mine.
It is not unreasonable to ask people to simply act like normal human beings at a family social event.
I would say that those who think it IS reasonable to drink several pints in 40 mins, swear loudly and repeatedly and go to the toilet numerous times in 40 mins are the ones who are at odds with accepted societal norms.
I'll say it again. It is not difficult for a human being to avoid wetting themselves for 40mins.
As for sports images, well cricket doesn't have a negative image to overturn. RL does.
