I've got a fever...

    When I was in college, we always went for a "Power Hour" or a "Century Club" when we wanted to get tanked quickly. Ahh...my frat boy days. Yes
    Ah, The Century Club. If you do the full 1.5oz shot, that works out to 12.5 beers in an hour and 40 minutes. Good times. We had a group of us that did The Century one time, and as a measure of our progress, we each signed our names after every 10th shot. It was fun to watch the signatures get more and more unintelligible as the night wore on.
    day boil: the act of getting pissed up between sunrise and sunset, generally a day boil continues into the evening unless the dreaded mid-afternoon nap kills the momentum.

    On your deathbed, you won't wish that you'd spent more time at the office.  But you will wish that you'd spent more time running.  Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.

      Jeebus guys, power hour has gotten kids killed. Of course the way kids are so heavy these days they're probably ok. Not that I didn't almost kill myself (more than once - and one time, almost took some others with me) back in college. Gads. It's amazing I survived my youth. Arla

        Keg stands anyone? doing a handstand on the keg while drinking from the tap. we were really stupid back then beer bongs were really hard on my lungs but I agree w/ OP the simplicity and beauty of shotgunning

          I remember once we were shot-gunning and beer bonging 16 oz coors lights before an Ozzy concert - Bark at the Moon tour...anyway, one guy I guess was getting pretty full and took a 16oz silver bullet in record time with a funnel. when he turned to burp, up came a frothy gush of coors. The guy turned to us and said "Whoa, that was weird. liguid going down, froth coming up, and cold both ways, awesome, load me up again." Funny, I hardly ever remember hangovers back then.

            I never did either. All I need is an attentive bar keep and let nature take its course... Shocked Some of the "kids" at the fraternity were using the beer bong but we "elders" stuck with the standard methods of just pounding them down. Anyone here play "Beer Hunter"? Someone shakes up a beer and puts it back in the tub with 4 others and you put it up to your head and pop the tab (or pull the tab in my case...). If you guess wrong, you get an 'ear full of beer'. Man, I am old. Cry TC

              Beer Bong.........definitely. 2 or 3 beers in a millisecond and not a drop spilled!

              Short story about my Century Club membership. Almost 20 years ago exactly, I gave up drinking for lent during my freshman year in college and at a time when I was struggling with my religion (long ugly story not worth telling).........anywho, Easter Sunday afternoon a couple of friends of mine and I started playing. A little more than an hour later and a 12-pack down, I was feeling no pain. With no pain and lots of liquid courage, I made a move on a girl that I had had a crush on for a while. Fast forward 20 years........that girl and I have been together for 20 years, married for 17, and have two amazing kids to show for it. I love beer!

              Keep the running and fitness up and keep the weight from coming back.

              Run more miles than last year.

                That's way awesome! I was a wee bit tipsy when I met my hubby. I was 17 and 3 Bartles & Jaymes Black Cherry wine coolers were good stuff. That was almost 18 years ago. We've been married over 11. Smile

                  I was hammered when I met my wife, too! It'll be 24 years on April 13. Big grin GO BEER! TC

                    Shotgun = all you need is a good set of keys and you are in business most anywhere. Interesting how this group meets mates. My wife and I met over a keg (I was keg master that night). Fast forward 21 years and three great kids. BTW - we still love keggers.

                      Well, I was only 17...underage drinkers can't be choosers. Evil grin

                        I would go for the bonger. Although, if the holes are small enough in the can after shotgunning, it can serve a dual purpose as a pipe. At least, that's what I heard. Beer hats rock! I can remember waking up after a particularly hard night with my "animal beer" hat on.

                          In college I avoided things like beer bongs, shotgunning, shooters, shots, trashcan punch, clear liquors in general, because it would mean - evening over too soon, and unpleasant memories if any. Just stuck to cheap - the beast (scraping bottom) in cans, Busch or Natural Light was the cheapest kegger. Then in 4th year we spent a summer in Europe and came back as certified beer snobs.
