If you love cars as much as we do, chances are you also like to see them zooming around on a track attempting to oust competitors in a race to the finish line. And, if you live in Australia, those chances are apparently even higher. Everyone knows that there’s nothing like watching a race while downin’ a few brews but it seems that alcohol related crime is on the rise during events such as the Bathurst 1000 V8 supercar race has lead the government to take a bit of precautionary action.
Recent reports have come from Down Under that let us know that those attending the Bathurst 1000 are limited to 24-beers a day. Yes, you’ll be allowed to drink just 24-beers per day while attending the event. 25? 26? You’re outta’ here.
Honestly though, let’s hope this cuts down on the crime rate during such events to make them once again a joyful experience.

Twenty four hours in a day, twenty four beers in a case. It’s not a coincidence. Respect the beer clock.
