All this talk of ice cream and booze, reminded me of the first time I went to the Air and Water show in Chicago. I was surprised to find out that they didn't allow alcohol at the viewing area, which is just the beach of Lake Michigan. But you could bring coolers with like sodas or water. There were cops everywhere checking coolers supposedly. I bought a couple of small cheap coolers, some bottled water and ice tea, and filled a couple bottles with white rum and dark rum. Once at the main viewing area, there are tons of vendors selling different foods and drinks, all non-alcoholic. But they had these awesome frozen fruit drinks in a variety of flavors. They are the perfect vehicle to spike with rum. They were literally selling virgin pina coladas and red punch.
The first time I went to mix a frozen drink with my illicit rum, the locals there saw what I was doing and formed up around me like a phalanx of guards, allowing me to be as blatant as I wanted. Later I would do the same for several other criminals like myself. The only people I saw get in trouble for booze was some 20-somethings who actually thought they could just bring in a huge cooler of beer with just a single layer of water bottles hiding it.
