Is The Beer Garden at Western Days Necessary [POLL]?

Western Days was fun! I enjoyed the parade, some awesome lemonade and I personally had a good laugh at everyone that was STUCK in the beer garden. I understand that there is a good reason for keeping the beer separate from the rest of the crowds but it struck me as funny when I saw all of the beer drinkers stuck behind a fence...almost like a cage. You could tell that everyone in the cage felt a little awkward and wanted to just drink there beer and leave. I can't say that I blame them.

I don't remember beer ever being at Western Days, and I certainly don't remember the beer cage. Maybe they should just get rid of the beer all together if they are going to make you stay in cage to drink it.
