Have you ever snuck any adult beverages in or out of the parks?

Yep- little bottles of vodka in DH cargos for the afternoon pick me up to go with a cold CokeJust wondering, not that I've done that by putting some rum in with my diet coke in one of the resort mugs, or perhaps by putting an unfinished frozen margarita from Epcot in a paper cup and finished on our walk back to the beach club or the monorail to the MK
And no, I don't endorse getting drunk.

I don't understand the need to sneak booze in. You can purchase alcohol (beer & wine) in all the parks now (I think). You can also get hard liquor in Epcot. As a previous OP commented, if you can't go a few hours at a Disney park without drinking, you may wish to consider seeking counseling.
Now, sneaking it out is a whole different can of bananas. We enjoy a couple of drinks at Epcot, however, not to excess. That being said, if you paid $10.00 for a Grand Marnier slush or a margarita on your way out and hadn't finished it by the time you reached the gate, I don't think you should have to "power it down" before going out the gate. A lot depends on the "condition" of the person doing the drinking.

It is a seriouly liability! Cast Memebers and security personnel are not trained to judge sobriety nor can they tell if the person is using Disney transportation or driving home. It is not always easy to judge a person's condition.
Understand completely, and I'm not condoning getting "hammered" or drinking & driving, but in most cases, people aren't going to throw it away. They'll "power it down" or sit near the exit and drink it leisurely. Either way, they'll drink it.

I have to tell this story. At DHS in March there was a small group of adults that got on our standing room only bus.They crowded in and ended up right in front of us. You could tell they were not feeling any pain. When the lights inside the bus went off one of them pulled a cup out from inside his jacket and continued to drink up. This didn't really bother me until we stopped suddenly and the contents ended up on me and my DD. My DD and I reaked of tequila. The adult male that brought the drink let out a string of slurred @$?! Looked at me and said," #$!! driver I should make him buy me another drink!!" He then started laughing, never apologizing once. All four individuals laughed and carried on about it until we got to our resort. Needless to say to each his own but some rules were not meant to be broken. My experience my opinion.

In my youth I could have seen myself as one of the "adults" feeling no pain while at Disney. However, if I spilt any alcohol on someone I would have apologized profusely and gave the little girl money for a new t-shirt and a souvenir. I'd probably buy the dad one too or just let him punch me.
. For some people vacation + alcohol = excess.

You are kind hearted.In my youth I could have seen myself as one of the "adults" feeling no pain while at Disney.

The spiller was the older of the group. Had to be in his 50s. The others were around their early thirties. You could tell they had been having quite the night! It was much to crowded to get into anything but an I'm sorry would have gone a looong way.
That stinks! I hate drunks, especially inconsiderate drunks. I'd say the main problems with this group were 1. They were inebriated, 2. they brought a drink on the bus, which you're not supposed to do, and 3. that they were jerks. I think bringing the booze out of the park wasn't the main problem.I have to tell this story.

I've not brought any alcohol into the parks, but reading this thread makes me want to. OK, maybe just to enhance a dole whip. But perhaps I'd best do that over at the Poly . . . wouldn't want to get confused with all the staggering booze-aholics coming out of Be Our Guest.

Yeah, it's gotten really bad by BOG. There's a wino there now who hangs out by the entrance, and some times just before close, Belle will come staggering out slurring her words hoding a bottle in a brown paper bag. One night I heard her mumble, "Yer no prince, yer just a filthy, animal! Cinderella never had to put up with this crap!" I felt really bad for the Beast. She definitely has a problem. II've not brought any alcohol into the parks, but reading this thread makes me want to.
