    Anyone watch It's always sunny in Philadelphia? The premier episode of season 10 tonight revolved around this ridiculous feat. I must believe that it is true! On PTI he did not want to reveal the true number...but while filming the episode for Always Sunny, Boggs told Charlie day the number was actually 107 over the course of the entire day.

    Charlie Day is hilarious, Jimmy Fallon is a dope.

    I can never tell if Jimmy Fallon is fake or if he is just a happy toddler that thinks everything is amazing.

    Charlie Day is great.

    On time when I was 21yrs old some friends and I were camping, ended up bringing way more beer then we could drink. We were camping down at Honeyman state park in Florence, I drew a giant clock in the sand and the drank 1 beer every half hour for 12 hours straight, using the clock to put my empties on so I could keep track. I thought I had accomplished a great feat!

    107 beers?!? That is just wrong.

    I dont think 107 beers in one day is even possible.

    I would say the true number is roughly half of that. Still insanely impressive though.

    Andre the Giant drank that many in one sitting.


    Boggs would've had to drink one every ten minutes for 18 hours. Impossibru!

    This story of Dock Ellis' LSD no-hitter makes me happy. He was "high as a Georgia Pine." This shit is funny.

    At the height of my beer drinking youth, I used to down 48 Little Kings over the course of an evening (3 - 4 hours), but they're only 7 oz. each, so it takes quite a few to get a good buzz on.

    I'm a real lightweight now. I limit myself to two or three 16 oz. stouts or porters, and I STILL feel hung over the next morning.

    I tried to reach 107 yesterday, but I fell a wee bit short.

    Yep! I did a whole case a Blitz singlehanded one night way back. I was fuck up sick for two days. Lesson learned, never more than a half rack after that.

    David Wells pitched a perfect game hung over. Yankees fans recall him falling off a bar stool at his favorite bar the night before. Mickey Mantle was a known drunk and one of the best players of all time.

    My best game as a high schooler came on a night after I was out drinking and smoking bud the night before. Pitched a complete game shut out and was 3-4 with 2 triples and a double.

    Weird how shit works that way.
