Did they bust any of them for possession of liquor inside state park boundaries ?  

I've always wanted to see them go all Nazi on that rule. 😀

I think they finally gave up on that Wrench.  Everybody just ignored it.  They eventually even took the signs down.  Years ago there were "no alcohol permitted in state parks" signs all over the parking lots.

The signs said "no alcohol in parking lots" They are still uup at Montauk. It is to deter partying in the lots.

Where in a state park can you NOT be in a parking area, "beach", or off road area? And if there is a legal place to possess a beer then how would you get it there legally?   Have it dropped in by a helecopter?

Years ago there was an article published by MDC about an old guy I knew (Frank Kramer) and a day at Bennett Spring, and in the article it said "he pulled out a flask and took a few sips in celebration of the large trout he had just released".  

I was like.....Wait a minute, hu? :blink:

Do these rules/laws only apply when they want them to, or are they real?   One can never know.

So if I bought a crispy chicken sandwich and gave it to Wrench, who's conservation # would have to be on the paper bag?

          So if this crispy chicken sandwich was caught in state waters you are illegal buying and the seller is illegal too. If you were the catcher of this crispy chicken sandwich and you had properly labeled the paper bag all you need to do is sign a piece of paper stating the contents and date (also on the signed paper) are a gift to Wrench. Then when he gets the crispy chicken sandwich it leaves your crispy chicken sandwich possession limit and becomes part of his crispy chicken sandwich possession limit until he consumes the crispy chicken sandwich. This is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. I could not find the daily or possession limits on the MDC website :)

   Now to other things,

    I truly cannot think it is that hard to not label your fish and game. Pretty easy. I have my conservation number memorized, Mrs. BilletHeads also. I really take care of what I put in my pie hole. If t isn't going to be consumed fresh it is vacuum sealed. Next step is to take a sharpie and label. laid out flat to be frozen. My deep freeze has plastic tubs with numbers on them. There is a list in the house and whatever goes into one of the numbered tubs goes on the corresponding list. Forgive me I am old and forgetful but I can remember what I have. No freezer burn  or off tasting fish and game. Nothing gets wasted. There is also a list during waterfowl season of bird count and species so when it gets to a point of reaching a limit we eat, gift out like the crispy chicken sandwich analogy above or don't' shoot anymore. Pretty simple.

Well first of all you can't give it to him in a paper bag or he will eat that too.

It seems that way. I have sat on a picnic table at Roaring River, drinking a beer, while talking to the GW. You were the first to tell me of that law.
