UNDERWRITER RESPONSIBILITY

Underwriters are responsible for their guest’s actions and should be sure that their guests do not drink too much and then try to drive.

We try our best to provide a safe and fun environment, but we need everyone’s help to do so. The members of Third Coast Cookers, along with all Underwriters and their guests, will not be held liable for the actions of any other underwriter or that underwriter’s guests.
