Some of the pissed up behaviour in the Hundred/Blast games is getting a bit too much, so they've been shutting the bars earlier and earlier. (Yes, I know there's some pissed up behaviour at a normal test match, but it seems much less than the games that go on into the evening/night. Haven't ever done a day/night test match though.)
Of course, this means people either stockpile lagers just before closing (I've seen people coming back with 4 pints each) or keeping their stash of cans until the end.
Depending on who I go with I often get to use their allowance too. My wife will drink lager but not my 80yo mother-in-law, yet she gets to have two cans of 5% lager assigned to her as I go through the bag check. Haven't tried to sneak in an extra two assigned to the 12yo yet.

Last time at Lords was for the Hundred (forgive me, Father...) - didn't bring any booze, but they guillotined the bar shut at (I think) 7pm, right in front of my nose after half an hour queueing. Going to the India game in a few weeks, will risk taking a 4-pack.
