The bar scene is a common place to find many college students on a typical weekend night. This can be a great place to meet your friends, enjoy a good band or just hang out. As long as your common sense is in play, it doesn’t have to become the beginning of a problem. Always be aware of your surroundings and avoid becoming so drunk that you lose consciousness.

The legal drinking age in the United States is 21. Breaking the law can get you into a lot of trouble. Underage drinking on college campuses is a well-known problem. Not only can you find underaged co-eds drinking at parties, but many try to slip into the local bar with a fake ID or use some other method to gain access. Local police know what to look for so they are constantly watching for trouble. While laws vary based on where you are attending college, a violation can cost you a lot of money and possibly even time in jail.
