- lhbaker, on 10/31/2007, -4/+82I woke up in a ***** stall in Australia, covered in vomit, at 7:00 A.M. in a bar bathroom.The doors had been chained shut and I had to climb through a tiny window to get out, only to discover that my ship (USS Kitty Hawk) had already left port. I had to be flown aboard.

- inactive, on 11/02/2007, -0/+44My roommate got wasted on the first weekend of college, passing out on top of the drain in the private shower, flooding several rooms on our floor and rooms in the two floors below is still a pretty tough one to beat. I was also pretty drunk, when the RA came banging on the door at 3 in the morning I got up and answered it, walking through 6 inches of water, and then walked back to bed and fell back asleep.
I woke up maybe a half hour later to my roommate holding a broom with a story to tell. He had gone to the room next door to apologize and started sweeping the water out of these girls' room next door. One of them asked him a question that left him dumbfounded and he raised both his hands up in the air and said "I don't know". He had no belt on, and his pants fell down. - inactive, on 11/03/2007, -2/+39My pick: "A wall of 1.3 million gallons of dark beer washed down the street, caving in two buildings and killing nine people by means of "drowning, injury, poisoning by the porter fumes, or drunkenness."

I tied one on.....then tied it about 8 to 18 more times
I woke up naked and handcuffed to a pole on the second floor of a bourbon street hotel room at about 2 PM, covered in tossed beads. The bar across the street on the second floor, decided it was best to put bar bets on who could ring me with beads and got very good as the alcohol was consumed.
Apparently my friend was standing with the bunch and got a good picture on my inebriated naked self rising from the floor and staring dazed at about a 100 people cheering at me across the way with about 5 pounds of beads dangling from various parts. Worried I was going to topple over the side, she had actually slapped the cuffs on me after I walked out around 4 in the morning and passed out nude on the balcony. Took me 10 minutes of searching the floor to find the god damned keys underneath all the beads and hoots of 'WARMER, WARMER, COLDER' from the crowd and photo flashes.
Someone out there has some great action shots of me walking back in the room grabbing my junk and flipping all off with a stupid grin on my face. - Sliver85, on 10/28/2007, -0/+24From the article comments: "I am an alcoholic, and I find this article funny. All the Debbie Downers need to lighten up. As many before me stated, it is not alcohol that causes the problems, but the people (like me) who can't be responsible about it."
At least she knows she's not responsible. - salinemist, on 10/28/2007, -0/+22And the repercussions were?
- lhbaker, on 11/01/2007, -0/+20It dilutes the story somewhat, but I got off scott free.
- Plasmatica, on 10/28/2007, -3/+23CNN really turned "web 2.0". I never really noticed.
- franktank232, on 10/28/2007, -0/+19An elder once told me you are not drunk until you've ***** your pants.
- Bdog2g2, on 10/29/2007, -0/+18Can I get an invite?
- inactive, on 10/29/2007, -0/+17I would imagine a good cover-up since his superiors failed to take notice that they were missing a sailor.
- Bdog2g2, on 10/28/2007, -0/+14A really good story.
- loves2spooge, on 10/28/2007, -2/+133/5 are about brits... w00t! WE'RE NUMBER 1!! WE'RE NUMBER 1!!
- jeimus, on 10/29/2007, -3/+14If I could remember half of them, then I might be able to compete
- kevinmotel, on 10/29/2007, -0/+11or the name of a kickass bar
- superal1394, on 10/29/2007, -2/+11Even better read about drunken endeavours:
www.tuckermax.com
I've spent many hours doubled over laughing at this guys stories.
Just a heads up, Tucker is higly nsfw. - leif77, on 11/03/2007, -0/+9"Sadly, this incident was not deemed tragic enough at the time to merit an annual memorial service and/or reenactment."
too true... - arjie, on 11/01/2007, -0/+9They got wet.
- AxeSwinger, on 10/28/2007, -0/+9You know an Australian is just an Irishman that got caught right?
- upnorthman, on 10/29/2007, -0/+9good read!
Harumph! - Bravecombo, on 10/28/2007, -0/+8Drunken Elephant eh? Could be a good drink name....
- barandon0D9, on 10/29/2007, -0/+8Animal Crossing?
- MonarchWastxD, on 10/28/2007, -0/+7...You got seriously pissed, got lost, ignored commands, missed your ship... and they still let you go onto the boat and command some small part of it?!
- inactive, on 10/29/2007, -2/+9You didn't. You got whiskey dick and the girls went down on each other after you passed out...which means you missed it and you're still a virgin.
CONGRATS! - sagat, on 10/28/2007, -0/+7Slightly amusing but nothing compared to a quiet Tuesday night in Dublin.
- inactive, on 10/28/2007, -0/+7I have to say that I was truly impressed by that first story. That Admiral was a straight up pimp.
- inactive, on 10/28/2007, -0/+6They were probably too drunk to do anything with 'em once they got their corsets off.
- nreynolds, on 10/28/2007, -1/+6today in Iraq: it's ***** up.
there. - chibimmy, on 10/28/2007, -1/+6No, not really.
- kakwakas, on 10/27/2007, -1/+6You puke, then you trip balls. Seriously. It does take a long time to kick in, then lasts for an excessively long time. I've never been stupid/brave enough to try it.
"In amounts of 5–20 g (~1-4 teaspoons) it is a mild to medium hallucinogen, producing visual distortions and a mild euphoria. "

http://www.tuckermax.com/archives/entries/date/the ... - crugg, on 11/03/2007, -0/+5The fountain sounds like a great party.
- inactive, on 10/29/2007, -3/+8*****, I'm half Irish and half American Indian. I have a genetic predisposition to being a complete ***** drunk. :)
- badenglishihave, on 11/01/2007, -0/+4And what happened after his pants fell down?
- inactive, on 10/29/2007, -1/+5I was about to say...
TuckerMax has some of the best drinking stories I've EVER heard...but it's mainly the way he tells them. To be completely honest, I have some (from playing in a national touring band for 11 years) that even dwarf some of Tucker's.
Sad, but true. NOW, off to read the article. Will comment further later. - bigdoof, on 10/28/2007, -0/+4Pretty much a ton of AJAX and the ability to write your own comments.
- theragu40, on 10/29/2007, -0/+3Ok, we all know you were fishing for it...what band?
- Humptydank, on 10/28/2007, -2/+5Oh for heaven's sake, there is no evidence that being an alcoholic or a drug addict has anything to do with responsibility. There is no evidence that staying sober has anything to do with re-discovering your responsibility. The only thing that has been firmly established is that everybody (alcoholics included) has their own pet theory as to what the "real" cause of addiction is, and it usually has something to do with how the addict is ever-so-slightly ethically, constitutionally, or intellectually deficient as compared to, say, them. These theories are often proffered with a drink in one hand, with the implicit moral being that it could never happen to them.
Until science finds something, anything, that is a predictor for addiction (which it hasn't), I would ethically, constitutionally, and intellectually request that everybody (including my fellow addicts) keep their big yappers shut. - inactive, on 10/28/2007, -1/+4Okay...after reading the article...yeah. Not a single one of my insane drinking stories can touch ANY of those. Hell, just after reading number 1. Wow. I'm speechless.
These are even better than the "Tucker's first buttsex" story...and that is CLASSIC.
/serious - zerolaw, on 10/31/2007, -0/+2two words, one man, Wade Boggs
- schnitzi, on 10/27/2007, -1/+3They left out a famous recent one -- David Boon's 52 cans of beer on a flight from Sydney to London:

My favorite footnote to the story is that after he landed, he apparently went out to a party and had a couple of pints. - kernel16, on 10/28/2007, -0/+2What I got out of that story: befriend a British Admiral.
- askjeffro, on 10/27/2007, -1/+3What exactly is your definition of "web 2.0" out of curiosity?
- essjay, on 10/28/2007, -0/+2I want that on my tombstone - "Died of drunkenness, 2007"
- nallelcm, on 10/28/2007, -0/+2yeah because it couldn't be the process when corpses become stiff...
obviously he MUST have stole his name from some band that nobody has heard of. - karlhouser, on 10/27/2007, -1/+3Thats nothing! One time I got so smashed.....
I got nothing.
Damn, I want to go to a fountain drinking party. - MonarchWastxD, on 10/27/2007, -0/+2That means that that unfortunate elephant will always remember what he brought home last night...
- Squidly1, on 10/31/2007, -0/+2Read the whole article in a previous Mental Floss. I love that magazine - kek.
- itsameericle, on 10/28/2007, -0/+2"tommy isn't here"......LOL
