Beefeaters act as personal warders for the royalty, guard the treasury, and most important, keep watch over the queen's bedchambers. A true Beefeater looks good in tights. It is unknown exactly where the term beefeater originated. Another theory is that during an English renaissance depression the yeoman were paid in sides of beef. But, it is a fact that the man came before the drink.
Most Beefeaters prefer a good stout ale over a swig of gin.
No outside food or beverage, not pets, no refunds, no Participant passes through the front gates. Each entrant must have a ticket of the current year, and yes, you may take my photograph. Between photo opportunities, fast talking, and flagrant flirting the Beefeaters also maintain the dubious honour of manning the exit gate and patrolling the courtyard. Each welcome approachment will gladly guide you to the nearest money-changer, pub, or privy. Be wary of their advancements, though.
