Coke or Pepsi. But it just doesn't feel quite right bowling without a beer.

Sugar free ice tea. Then I add my own Splenda to it. Sometimes I will drink a Coke or Mountain Dew but never diet. I can't stand the taste of diet drinks.

When I was in the service my company commander once said, "Sargent, you must be the only section chief in the Army that doesn't drink coffee. How do you function in the mornings?"

I have been on several drinking teams that had a serious bowling problem.

Me too Florida,,, moderation!!!! that's the key!! It can, turn nasty sometimes, .... most bowlers drink responsibly has been my view. I'll have one once in a while never more then two. Miller High lite.....

PBR or Gin and Tonic are the norm cause my buddy and I satarted the team to hang out. But, now it would be root beer more often than not.

Coffee followed by water. Wednesday league starts after 9:00 p.m ( more like 9:30 ). Fortunately its doubles so unless something out of the ordinary happens we're out by 11:00.

p.s. Don't mention the last part to the wives of the guys who go into the bar to play darts after we finish.

I didn't drink coffee until I joined the Army, I haven't drank coffee since I got out of the Army. There is nothing comparable about the grit filled muck they would send out to the field in the civilian world :D

that's not that bad. my tuesday night league starts at 9:30 and it's a 4 person team. and most of the season the league that played before us would run 5-15 minutes late like every week.

I used to drink JD on the rocks for years while bowling. Now it's only an occasional beer.
