well it seems that the biggest problem at bogs is drinking! fights and disrespect caused by those that have problems controlling their drinking. ive noticed that places where alcohol is not allowed ( mounds silver lk and other offroad parks ) do not seem to have to many issues like fights and other things that have either forced or caused our boggin spots to seis to exist. So what about no drinkin at bogs? If it causes problems then eliminate the problem right? Its prolly safer anyway, no drinkin and driveing ... that does not look good on bogger either. well this is my thoughts anyway.
There are alot of posts about this. It MOST mean something needs to be done. i havent been to many bogs but the couple i have been to theres been alot of drinking. I say no drinking would solve alot.
i ll say it s the A$$ who is drinking , and made the lousy judgement on how to react or behave.
98% of the people can drink at bogs & never have a issue, its the 2% that screw it up for everyone else... JMO
drinking & boggin been around longer than most of the members on WGM have been alive, maybe our next generation of boggers will be alcohol & drug free... it starts with you
makes no difference to me one way or another, I leave when the party starts getting outta hand,
the drinkers put on a good show ==roll
All true, but there are a lot o ppl that don't contoll themselves and its ruining for every one else. so i think that its up to the property owners to make this call becuse they are the one who have to deal with the problems caused!

cant put it all on the property owners. we (boggers and watchers) need to help. they put there land on the line hoping not to have problems. but they cant do everything. We all need to pitch in and help the sport so it can stay around.
i didnt mean it like that, i meant that the rules would have to be their decision. because the ones messin everything up for the rest of us are otherwise uncapable of doing so themselves.
Big Daddy you said it well !!

its the 2% that screw it up for everyone... so when at a bog, try to keep yourself outta the
2% catergory, have fun & pack up what you brought, (Cans,trash,etc) & lets have some fun this summer

I agree with both of you. That 2% of people are better off going somewhere else. JMO
i drink at every bog my people as well do the same and i usually keep them under control and never had one issue... i know there 2 percent that made us look bad... and usually we leave when things goes bad
true BIGDADDY said it best
drinkers can put on a good show but as long as it safe to them and the crowd, which hardley ever happens
didnt we all just have this discussion last week? it is not going to change so why keep bringing it up. dont get me wrong i agree 100 percent but its not going to change. also i think some smart ass said to me about finding a solution....... well i got one no f-------ing drinking till the bog is done, but no one here can do a thing about it until the land owner wants to do something. and they dont sorry about the sarcasme but it gets old

we used to have a mud bog every year at my parents but the last time 1 guy was drunk and out of control so my dad pulled the plug he said it is to much of a liability if people wont listen to the rules. now we do invite only but it was more fun with more people.
I think even if there was no drinking allowed people will still find a way.Some times it does get a little crazy toward the end of the night. But land owners should be have zero tolerance on the underage drinking and boot them if they get cought
the drinking should just be left at home or wait for the after party
I second that. Usually people drink to get drunk. Which is taking the brain out of it's normal conscious state. So your telling me that offroading/bogging is not fun enough to where you also need to drink? To ME, that somewhat does not make sense. Drinking and driving specifically are illegal because the brain does not operate the way god intended it to. Which as we've ALL seen, can and usually gets very dangerous.
Personally I say you shouldn't "have" or "need" to drink to have a good time out there. OR at least only have so much. For example at the Howell bog a guy got wasted and wanted to leave, so his buddy drove his car into a muddy ditch. Of course it caused a huge fight but nonetheless the buddy did a very safe and smart thing! Like I said d&d is illegal for obvious reasons and boggers should not drink for the same obvious reason. But people will still do it. And it will ALWAYS get dangerous. To me I would never drink because it's so much fun offroadin while sober! And that's all. ;D
==beer bewbies & mud ;D
i don't drink beer or any thing else that makes you for get who you are, or care about the people around you.
i bogg sober. drinlin is my high. and they don't throw me in jail for it on the way home.
4 or 5 pm i chose to leave bogs because of the drunken stupid p00. my grandson or wife don't need to here the f^%$k word all the time, redneck or not, i don't under stand how that can be fun. when you can't rember it tomorrow ==dunno
went to michigan jeep militias fist bog yesterday had zero tolerence everone seemed to had great time yes idrink yes i get drunk but i dont want to be around when someone with 600 horse truck who drank 6 pack in staging makes a pass jmo ++peace

I don't drink anymore, but it sure is fun watchin other folks drink lmao! And yup, when the drama starts, I get gone.
Ive never been to a bogg were drinking wasnt allowed and i never will and at silver lake you just have to be a little creative with you disspensers. Dont let the people that cant handle thier booze wreck it for the majority that can. By the way i did that burn out with a bud between my legs and didnt spill a drop and didnt get thrown in jail. I think people should live and let live and quit crying like a bunch of NANZIES.
I drink and like to drink. but there is a TIME and PLACE for it. I dont see a problem with haven a few drinks and haven a good time. BUT people need to learn when and the people with them to know buddys limits.
Bogs should all have a staff crew to watch the pits and people at all times. if a person seems buzzed up then the bog crew and/or buddys should say something. we should all look out for eachother right. this would be a huge start
here is a old saying (instant ahole just add alcohol) unfortunetly this happens to people and u never know until its to late

i don't drink, but most of my friends do, personally i have more fun when their all sober, and they are unquestionably better drivers that way, but once they start drinking they can't stop, and then get stupid, the fun is over and then so is the party, if your gonna drive or bog do it sober, if ya wana drink than drink just pick one have fun and let everyone around you have fun, aren't happy stupid drunks more fun than angry stupid drunks anyways?

wow i bet you feel like your a BIG man for doing that. way to put peoples life in danger AND break the law at the same time, then brag about it. i hope you feel like a real winner.... also, way to set the example for the younger crowd on this site...
but then again, i might just be a nanzie, which i assume is a nancy???

remember this when u have no place left to bog due to ignorance that is alcohol fueled
I rarely drink, and only did a drink and drive twice, and would never do that again.
I dont think peaple should drink at bogs, but if you ban it, they will sneak booze in one way or another.
I dont have a problem with having a few beers a bog, but I would save that for after the bog in the evening when were setting around the camp fire bull shittin about how the day went.
I could careless what anyone does at a bog, you have a few beers & have fun
but if you are a drunk & stupid ,Please stay clear of me & my family....
kinda why i been stayin clear of bogs lately, dont want/need the bs
thats whats nice about the mounds orv park, no drinking allow'd there...
