On a lawn chair with a cooler full of Coors Beer next to you. Man I remember when In texas if you said open carry it meant a beer can between your legs going 85 on the Stemmis Freeway and a side arm on your hip..
I could be wrong but I though TX was the last state to succumb to those Nasi bastards MADD and pass a law against Open Containers.
I dunno about TX, but Montana has had open container laws since when I was about 20 or so. My class, btw, was the last in MT to legally drink at 18...
For a while there, that open container law got pretty silly.. If you had an empty (a single empty) in the back of your pickup, you could, and were cited... I say that incredulously, and you'd understand why if you saw the bed of my truck in those days... But, what wound up happening, since folks couldn't just throw their empties in the back of the pickup, they'd leave them on the ground. Littering became a pretty serious problem along the roads, and more importantly and substantially, in the woods, and down along the river, where folks most naturally go for tailgating.
Seems like most folks were doing the responsible thing... going out in the woods to party, where they ain't going to hurt nobody... and the piles of cans in the back of the truck were the natural means of keeping the woods clean. Took quite a few years, after they lightened up, for folks to go back to what they once did by nature.
