I was very popular my last semester in college, because I was legally 21 and could buy the booze.
Senior year, I was the only person in my dorm who was of age and owned a car. I made some good money that year, between the booze runs, Target trips, and Perkins (restaurant) raids.
Being 21 in NYC for college, lent NO benefit over every other college student.
You know what's really funny? Other than the time my car died for good, this is the longest I've ever had a car at the mechanic's. And it is for something mechanically piddly, not like needing a new clutch or something.
And it is the one time I have been given a loaner.
Which is good, because I would be batshit insane without it at this point.
Being in Chiefs, specifically in the trumpet (Screech Squad) section in college, we veered between kegs, coolers, and most commonly at Chiefs' parties, Hairy Buffalo, which was like Purple Jesus, except hairier.
Gotta love college in the south.

My last semester of high school I was 18, so I could drink legally.
Me too, until I was 20 and then they switched to 21 without grandfathering us in.
Hairy Buffalo
Oh, lord. There are many nights I can't remember, thanks to Hairy Buffalo. (Made with Everclear, which was illegal in Ohio, so people would drive to Indiana to buy it, along with beer at low low Indiana prices.)

Also illegal in Florida, so we'd drive up to Georgia to get it. Ha!

I turned 18 in November of my senior year and could drink legally for most of the year. Not hard stuff. Just beer and wine coolers. Not a bad deal for a high school senior.

That is cool. Way-cool, in fact.

Bastards!
In WI, the drinking age went from 18 to 19, and then to 21. They did grandfather people in, but each time I was old enough to not need the grandfathering.
Also, in my high school, parents often threw keggers for their kids, figuring it was less dangerous than their kids drinking in some field somewhere.
