I’d be pissed if the school served my kids leftover margaritas. Margaritas should be served fresh or not at all. ---

Well, it sounds like they caught it quick and acknowledged the error and have taken immediate steps not to let it happen again. I’m hoping the parents see it as no harm no foul. I about fell out of my chair laughing when I read it. ---

Heheh. Oh, they’re be plenty of lawsuits, alright, probably more lawsuits than kids. ACDS costs about $15000 a year, and those folks are paying all that money precisely to try to keep their kids away from drugs, alcohol, gangs (and minorities… :dubious: ). ---

I heard they have changed their school mascot to a parrot. ---

You know, Halloween is right around the corner. Wouldn’t it be freaky if all the little ones dressed up as a little “Captain Morgan”? :smack: Tripler Or even worse, that Molson Blue bear! ---

Since it’s a Country Day school the proper drink would have been Gin & Tonic, not Margaritas. Or Single Malt Scotch from Father’s liquor cabinet, neat or on the rocks. At worst a Dry Martini or a Manhattan. ---
