Ok who can run the math and figure the BAC of this guy. Figure he weighed 100kilos and downed 1.5liters of vodka.

I don't understand why God did not give some people the ability to recognize sarcasm.

I guess I believe in free will and the fact that I can sin....the good God does allow us to sin, so we can learn from it. Obviously these guys didn't learn very well. I know it sounds simple, but I don't believe we are here on earth to live a protected life.

The bottom line is that 3 Liters is 96 oz., or 3 Quarts of booze in 30-40 minutes????

That is pure poison at those levels.

I don't understand how a supposedly good God can allow things like this to happen to people.

Taht was probably sarcasm, BUT .. God doesn't stop people from being stupid ;-) ...

Whoops! He actually drank 3 half-liter bottles which means he drank 48 ox. or 1 1/2 quarts of booze in 30-40 minutes. That's still outrageous.

And I used to think 2 Martinis in 2 hours was bad.

So, did everybody have a good time? And were the prizes awarded as advertised? Smells like a reality TV series in the making.
