A real beer pro


We went to the ballpark the other night.  Two rows in front of us, I watched a man and his son take their seats.  The man carried a hot dog for his kid and one for himself, plus napkins and a beer.
The little boy carried his own soft drink.
The man helped his kid get the seat down, get settled, gave him a hotdog, gave him a napkin, got his own seat down and sat down.  I watched, intently as he focused on getting his charge settled.  In the process he never once looked at his beer.  It was less that a quarter of an inch from the top, but he never spilled a drop.
I was impressed.
