    Hey, Bud Light is weak, but 18 of them will sure as hell take you down for the count.

    I've had that. I probably would have had like a $40 tab on my birthday but the bartenders on duty at my favorite watering hole decided to comp my drinks that night. Hey, you only turn 35 once! :p

    That might be me now as I have winded down my tolerence since college where, the night before my graduation, I spent $80 on jack and cokes all night.

    Interestingly enough, when I return to Augusta, scheduled for mid to late April, a friend of mine whom I used to drink with til the wee hours has said that the first night I'm back, the tab is on him.

    He should know better :D

    Quick story: My friend and I would drink one bar closed and then go across the state line to South Carolina and drink until the sun came up at one of the "not so secret" private clubs that are allowed to stay open that late. I remember several times trying to drag him out of there at 7 a.m. when I had to get up for work at 2 or so the next day. Fun times soon not forgotten.

    In my hometown or college town I can get schnokered for $12 bucks plus whatever I buy to eat after at Tbell... the bars I usually go to not so much. It can get rough. Sometimes when I go back home I laugh when I see my tiny bar tab after a full night of boozin.

    Oh, my tolerance has gone way up since college. Considering that it took me to graduate college to turn into the drinker I am today.

    I once had a bartender in Augusta ask me, and this was at $1.75 draft night, how many beers I could drink. This is after I had been there for three hours and was still not drunk. Mind you my tab at that time was more than $25 with no shots. It's at that time I began to wonder if I indeed had a hollow leg.

    Because I know you're a regular on the wrestling thread, I thought you'd find this interesting. I was reading Ric Flair's biography awhile back and he was talking about his drinking days with Andre the Giant. Flair recalled one night when Andre drank 112 beers. No joke.

    Sir, there is nothing wrong with Bud Light ... especially in the new aluminum bottles.

    I can believe it. It's also said that Andre drank like that because he knew he wouldn't live long because of his condition.

    You ever read Mic Foley's first book? Lots of funny stories in there.
