According to the Australian Federal Police, a then-32-year-old man from Western Australia was disruptive on a flight headed from Perth to Sydney. As a result, the plane had to turn around and go back to Perth, which meant that the pilot was forced to dump some fuel to land.

    1. Museums have Night events where they serve beer. There’s three of them happening in my city this month at a Art Museum, science Museum, and a Arboretum. Wine is often at gallery showings.

    2. Depending on your state laws, You may be able drink at a public park. Review your States laws. Many forbid open containers.
