Used to drive around in a 70 Duster(or any car we were in but I had a Duster) with a case of beer on the back seat,we'd toss the empties out the window and reach over and back over the bench seat and grab another...
An old friend of mine told me a story about after an out of town high school baseball game where the players drove themselves. He was in a car with three other guys I knew (or knew about). One of them looked old enough to buy beer at 15 so he bought them each a six pack. That guy is in the front passenger seat in front of my buddy. Eric (the guy in front) chugged his first beer and tossed the empty out the window. Tony (my buddy) told him not to do that as there was a cop. Eric muttered FU to Tony and chugged another and tossed it. Tony repeated himself and so did Eric. Shortly after Eric chugged and tossed his third beer the cop lit them up. With the four of them piled in the back of the police cruiser he looked at them and asked if they wanted to know how stupid they had been. He pointed out Eric's empties back to the first one. He said, "see that can, see that building that says Atwater Police Department? We were just coming on duty when you tossed the first can." Nothing much happened to them except their parents were called to come get them...1979 was a vastly different time.
