I'm sure this is exactly what they were doing and in my opinion the students should have been smarter than to be drinking from them outside. Because of the problems in the area after the last two Super Bowls and the ALCS, Menino, O'Toole, the university presidents, and the student government presidents had all worked together to put out an absolute zero tolerance policy for the World Series and the Super Bowl. Streets were closed down, cops were out in riot gear, and cops were going to be patrolling everywhere making sure everything stayed calm. This was something that everyone knew about. It was said everywhere that the police would be out checking and looking for those signs. I'm sure because this was a fraternity house, it made the news. But it could have been any house and I'm sure it happened at others too.
