i'll tell ya what brother there was beer but i didn't see not one person get out of line. i had my wife, 18month old son, and 3.5 year old daughter there and my wife and i don't personally drink and don't tolerate drunkeness or stupidity due to alcohol and we had ZERO problems. there was only one incident that i felt was out of line and it was the way someone treatin their dog as he walked by the TDHA booth (where we were). But i don't think the one incident that lasted a few seconds overshadowed the event as a whole. i did make a comment to the guy, and he quickly realized he was in the wrong apologized and went about his business.
if you asked me if i'd take my wife and kids again the answer is yes. there was a lot of children running around and they had a good time playing together and everyone was very mindful of everyone's kids as a whole. i was very pleased and was glad i attended as i had the same apprehension you're voicing now. well worth it in my mind.
