Do you avoid all large social gatherings, as well as concerts? Yes, at this point in life. As a younger man it wasn’t as big of a deal.
Sporting events? Yes. Much easier to watch it at a local watering hole and avoid the crowds, traffic and trouble.
Would you skip a wedding reception because people? I’d show up to be seen and have a drink and then haul ass and actually enjoy myself.
What if said reception was open bar? Can’t recall anyone I know that didn’t have an open bar. But I’m not poor.
Would you skip a wake? Never been to one. Is that the same thing as a viewing? If so I will only go if I have to and even then only long enough to be seen. They are dead and life is for the living. I value the people I care about and they know it in life. I am certainly not going to a funeral unless they are within two degrees of continuity.
What if said wake was open bar? See above.
