Agreed. But you have to remember, that they have to make the risk management rules the way they are so as to cover every possible situation. If you read and understand the SPIRIT of the rules and not the Letter of the rules, you will understand that you can break some of their rules, just as long as you dont engege in negligent behavior, or put others in risky siruations. You can break the no kegs rul, or more than 6 drinks rule, just dont be a stupid ass about it and give going away cups full of beer and pass out vodka shots, youre ok. BTW I really believe our insurance policies arent workth the paper their written on. Ya actually think your (anyones) national org is gonna cover your ass in the even of a negligance suit? hells no, thy'ee cover their own ass and turn the back on you. So be careful - not for some yahoo in Indy, but for your own ass. Gyranteee Lloyd in london aint givin a crap about you, and like all ins. companies will do whatever it can to deny claims.

But have a good time cory. I'd be ther if It wasnt about 17 states away.
