The get Chef through a 3 hour layover thread

I still have this bedrock principle rooted in the year 2004 that I won't pay double figures for a beer. I've paid $9 all the time at baseball games. I'll pay way more than that for a cocktail. But I refuse to go up to $10 for beer. At some point I'll accept inflation as a normal part of life, but not yet.

I remember when I got over the mental block of paying $10 for a meal that wasn't in a nice restaurant in the early 2000's. That was a hurdle, too.
 
Back in my traveling (and drinking) days, I'd usually have to fly out early in the morning. So I'd get to the airport by 6 am to tie a load on before getting on the plane.

It feels like the last place on Earth where it's perfectly acceptable to be drunk at sunrise.

Good for mind-weary people to rest their eyes on the plane.

Make your layover in Denver, Detroit or Chicago next time.

I had a three-hour layover in Detroit in January. They have CASINO gambling on your phone. I made about $700 over three hours, relatively risk-free, playing baccarat.
