Seeking a beer-seeking "stratergery" at the Ravens stadium

I got a hold of Brooks Lambert , the inventor of the Beerbelly, the device that lets you carry 80 ounces of beer under your shirt. (see yesterday's post: Just in Time for Football Season )

He reports that your stomach does not get cold because the Beerbelly is coated with insulating neoprene. "I made the first one cutting up one of my $300 neoprene wet suits," said Lambert who is a California surfer.

He also reports that he has never been "detected" by security personnel. "The first time I had it on I felt conspicuous," he said, thinking his stomach protruded. "But then I looked around and saw I loooked like every other guy."

Speaking of beer at stadiums, what is your recommended beer-seeking routine at Ravens stadium?

I am headed out there Thursday night, and will be looking for good brews. Anybody got a stadium "stratergery" ?"

Thanks for following up on this, Rob!

How can the neoprene insulate beer and still benefit from the ice pack that the website is selling? EIther it insulates or its subject to outside temperature. Hmm...?
