Catholics should never make exceptions for what they are sacrificing no matter the holiday. Giving something up for Lent is not like getting a boyscout badge, it is a serious commitment made to bring yourself closer to Christ and God.
One must weigh the choice, which is more important? Your dedication to God? Or drinking with your friends?
