Let's see....working on a new total today. Apparently I need to start a continual beer bong if I expect to reach 60.

There was a freshman from Lake highlands in Davis Gary in 1986 who did the Double Daves Around-the-World beer drinking tour when they first started it in 3 days. Thats 33 beers a day for 3 days straight....and some were more than 12 oz, and some were pretty nasty and very thick. Cant remember his name, but the plaque was still there last time I checked. He is the first name. I was like the 12th guy to finish. It took a few weeks and all i got was free pizza , a t-shirt, and a lot of crappy grades.

I know that i have consumed well over a case in a day, and also have no interest in repeating. Not real proud of it. OK...maybe a little.

Oh yeah...the guy mentioned above failed out after 1 semester.

I drank a keg by myself, I basically had the draw going the whole time. I don't know how many beers it was, but it took about 20 minutes.
16 gallons by 12 oz= a little over 170.
So what do I win?

I am ashamed of what I have done in the past as far as my drinking is concerned. This is a true story because I saw it with my own eyes. There was this dude that passed out at a party and we drug him to a bedroom for him to sleep it off. When we went in to check on him the next morning he had pissed and crapped all over the bed. It was one of the most disgusting things I have ever seen. How he got out of his clothes I will never know. Maybe a girl went in there and tried to take advantage of him in his passed out state.

Anyone ever hear that story of Wade Boggs drinking 78 beers on a flight from New York to Las Angeles? Rome used to talk about it all the time. Now there is no way a person could live through that. No way.

Yeah, that 60 might be a stretch. By about 8:00 I was so wasted it was not even funny. I am just reporting what my friends told me the next day. Maybe they exaggerated in order for me to stop drinking all together.

Something over a case (I can't remember how much over, just that we had to go to the store for more beer) in about a 12-hour period.

That was a nasty little hangover.

you drank a whole keg by yourself in 20 mins?

I"d have to ask the wife as she seems to be the self appointed statistician. I have tried to convince her I don't really need help with the first sixpack, but that she can count from that point on if it amuses her!

Typical beer consumption discussion with the MRS:


MRS FXST: "You know that's your third beer?

FXST: " No sh t!"....... Baby, just help me when I get to the big numbers like seven or eight!

Right around a case is prolly the norm for a lot of people. It seems I am able to put the most beer away when i am floating the river (but standing up the end sucks).

60 would be tough to do in a 12 hour period - that's five beers an hour. However, if you stretch it out over 18 hours, that's only just over 3 beers an hour. Now obviously, that's not as easy as it sounds, but by no means impossible.

A friend and I once damn near floated a keg by ourselves Christmas break of '98 or '99. My kegerator was empty and we were bored, so we got a keg with plans of having a couple of friends over and getting drunk. We got the keg, but that's about as far as it went. He and I had a few 32oz cups full, but no more than three or four apiece. We called it a night - he went home and I went to bed.

We both woke up thinking the same thing (god that sounds gay), though - because he called me at 8am and said "I'll bring the pancakes if you supply the beer." Within the hour, we had our first beers and were sitting down to pancakes. We proceeded to drink and play some Crash Bandicoot racing game on PS all day. Sometime after dark, two of my neighbors came over and started drinking with us. Not sure when it ended, but we woke up the next morning to an empty keg.

IIRC, a keg is 128 pints. That's a little over 2000 ounces. Taking out the beer we drank the night before and the beer my neighbors drank, that puts my buddy and I at about 64 12oz beers each for a day. That's averaging 4 an hour, but I'm sure we drank a lot more than that early on, and less than that by the end of the night.

Looking back, it was one of those "how did we not die" situations. However, that was at our "prime" (we all partied way too hard for those two years) - no way I could pull a stunt like that, now.

Last thing I did like that was about a year ago. I drank 9 quarts of Bud Light in right at two hours. That's right at a case. Better than that, though, my wife drank 6 quarts in the same amount of time. She had a little rougher go with it (she puked not long after), but impressive, as she didn't drink at all until she met me in December of '01.

FXST - Have you noticed how much better their math is when calculating your consumption than in estimating the monthly cost of their cosmetics?

Dub,

Or calculating the consumption of their calories after they turn thirty?
