Does draft beer come in sippy cups?

A father who bought a beer for his 4-year-old son at the Fond du Lac County Fair in Wisconsin and shared it with the boy's 2-year-old sibling was cited after becoming belligerent when he was approached by police.
A woman working at a beer tent last July told an officer she thought the man was joking when he asked for two beers - one for him and another for his 4-year-old son.
When he was questioned by an officer, he told him it's legal for underage children to drink in Wisconsin, as long as they're with their parents. The officer countered that the boys weren't old enough to know what they were drinking.
A police report said the man began yelling and swearing and was kicked off the fairgrounds.
The Fond du Lac County district attorney recently requested that the man be cited for disorderly conduct.

After Salisbury Fire Chief David See got drunk, ran his mouth and got his ass whooped pretty bad he had to drink beer out of a sippy cup.

Get your sippy cups with the SFD logo at 325 Cypress Street and don't forget to sign guest book. Joe's name looks very lonely.

Sounds like a liberal dream. Its just another example of the government stepping in where it does not belong and poking their noses in peoples lives. Let families decide what is right for families, not elitist snobs.

McCain - Palin or die!
