What would you rather deal with: someone angry because they had to pay
for drinks, or someone mega-angry and suing your ass off for providing
the free drinks that made someone drunk and get into a fatal traffic
accident? The way the law is now, if someone gets drunk at a party you
provide drinks at (especially if they are free), and gets into a serious
accident, they can sue your ass off.
