My napkin math, and IMO is fairly conservative

600, assume 50% are cyclone fans so 300
Bars open 10am - 2am 16 hours
1 an hour on average 300 x 16 = 4800/day

I'd curve it so you do your highest estimates for Thurs afternoon to Saturday, bring it down for Wednesday and Sunday. Now I gotta break out Excel.

Here is some quick math:

Wed. 900 (300 people each drinking 3 during CF/WW event).
Thurs. 3600 (600 before each drinking 3 and 600 after the game each drinking 3).
Fri. 3600 (600 throughout the day each drinking 3, 600 during WBB game each drinking 3).
Sat. 3600 (600 before each drinking 3 and 600 after the game each drinking 3).

This would be 11,700 cans.

Doesn't count retail sales.

I'd ask the bar (s) are you willing to be overflowing with cyclone fans. Because if you give the go ahead the word will spread and then ask what's your best day and promise them that back to back days matching it. Remember if YOU sell it We Will come.
Great point. You all can help us out by letting your friends that are going to Omaha know that each Ames Lager consumed helps the portal season fund!

Will there be any place to buy a six pack? If so, I will likely buy several to take back home as live in a state where we have none in sight.
It's available at most Omaha Hy-Vees that I've seen along with quite a few other West O options.

do something like Djs (omaha bar) does for the CWS (shots per team). divide the state into quadrants and keep tally on how much each drinks during the week
Think you're thinking of Rocco's Pizza and Cantina, right across the street from the baseball stadium. The owner and his son are CB natives and St. Alberts grads.

Hate to be the Debbie downer but I don't think you can assume every Cyclone fan will drink Ames Lager. As much as I love it I know most of my friends that are Cyclones don't like anything but Busch Light and Coors Light.
