Why do they call it a beer run when people rarely actually run to go get alcohol?

3. I actually did run once in college
this was in Conn., where, at the time, package sales ended at 8:00. Sharp. Actually, being (perpetually :grr: ) underage, I served merely to set the pace for the woman actually making the liquor run.

The result? Let's just say we got the Cuervo Gold medal, by a couple of minutes. :beer:

4. Go hang out at a 7-11 parking lot at 1:50 am in CA
and you'll see why.
