Almost every snake-bite case that used to come into the ER where I worked involved alcohol...seriously
Getting plastered and dancing a jig on a copperhead was a sport in the Ozarks...
That must be some mighty strong alcohol you folks drink in the Ozars. We don’t have copperheads in CA, but we got all sorts of other rattlesnakes, and I have never seen anybody drunk enough to dance a jig on one.
