Really. Seems like some kind of screening software for multiple pings might be in order yes?

Isn't alcohal cheaper in Wisconson?

[MikeA]

I would think whatever city Ted Kennedy happens to be in would automatically become the "drunkest city."

[RubyCosmos]

I read somewhere that in hell, you're dumped in a vat of all the alcohol you've ever spilled and forced to drink your way out.

Its probably due to the high Illegal alien population and their cheapo "Colt 45" malt.

I feel for Lake Michigan.

Only ONE Southern town on the top 10? I'm calling BS. :)

Pittsburgh at 8 and Tampa / St Pete at 25 BULL. I've lived in both. The tourists alone in St Pete should have us higher (pun intended) than that!

Reminds me of my days at Marquette University...

I especially remember Happy Hour on Friday afternoons/evenings, which consisted of 25-cent drafts of Miller at The Gym and 10-cent drafts of Old Style at Good Time Charlies.

Milwaukee was probably the drunkest city back then, too!

I remember visting a high school buddy that went to Marquette. I was just going for the weekend, and his dorm was having a party. They loaded up just about every type of liquor imaginable in this big vat, they called it some kind of "Punch". All I know is that I have almost no memory of the rest of that week. Maybe even the rest of that year!

And if I hadn't quit drinking, I'm sure St Louis would have made the top ten.

Yes, but they're only listing major cities. The worst are those medium-sized college towns (50,000-250,000 people). And man do I love travelling to them.

True story. A group had a fund raiser at the Milwaukee Art Museum. It was an all you can drink Martini Bar for 30 bucks. Guess how THAT went.......

Pittsburgh at 8 and Tampa / St Pete at 25 BULL.

Coors never launched an entire product line named after the state Tampa is in. The makers of Keystone know where the beer drinkers are.

. . .a new convention center and baseball park . . .

Probably need the alcohol to overcome the cold. Didn't Russians used to drink large amounts of vodka so it didn't seem as cold?
It's either that or there are some very ugly women in those cities.

I read the title as "drunkenest." And, alas, I am sober.
