Drinks are a lot easier to justify than a finger-licking food like a hamburger. Like Springmom says, sometimes it's too hot to *not* have a drink on hand! Keeping it in a covered container under a barrier I think mitigates enough of the danger to make me feel just fine about it, really. (I would not want to eat fried chicken from a bucket I'm using as a forearm support while firing, though )
I think you did the right thing there, though. You said your piece politely, and he took it poorly. I agree with your assessment -- some people shouldn't be at the range. (Many of the people who I mean by that could be fine at the range with minor training in safety, courtesy, etc -- like the fellow who inadvertently swept me a few times with his .44 magnum. Not malice, just not thinking hard enough.)
