Is there a better supply of free drinking water downtown these days?

The common has a nice water fountain that sprays far (so it run N be clean). If I recall, its near the fountain and/or on the pathway toward the public garden. There might even be one closer to the ball fields.

Bonus points, the esplanade has a few bubblers too.

I wish we would have more of them. I know some are ewww gross idea but when you are thirsty.. you're thirsty. Plus we have some of the best water in the country coming from our taps.

ruined public water fountains for me. Not really, but I can't help but to think of this episode every time I use one.

You can say that again. I wish we had more public fountains too, especially the newer ones with the bottle filler since I usually carry one around.
