Five times I've had huge drinkings sessions that passed ridiculous:
1. Fake Frat Initiation
For a fake frat, the initiation was to drink the three warmups with hazing between and then finally a pitcher. The warmups were terrible beer to begin with but these were also generally months and months old left sitting in the sun and then finally in boiling water before served to make as disgusting as possible. You were timed on each of these (8 seconds, 12 seconds, and 8 seconds for me) and you had a total of 3 minutes combined to finish all three.
In between warmups you also generally had to eat various disgusting things or do other general hazing activities.
Finally, the main event-- the pitcher. You had a pitcher of the same above nasty beer (just not as old and not hot) filled to the point of just before overflowing. If you dribbled a drop or spilled anything you had to pause your time, refill the pitcher, and then continue (and they were horribly and cruely strict about this rule). The goal was to drink the entire pitcher in under 15 minutes (my time for the pitcher was 1:16
, second fastest in the history of the frat).
During the night you're graded on two things-- your times and how many times you vomit. In fact, you actually have a coach throughout the whole time and his sole job is to hold a trash bag so you can vomit in it because you will vomit. A lot.
At the end of the night, you get a horrible nickname which you have to proudly wear on your jersey. I really don't know why I joined other than the pleasure of hazing people the next few years.
2. The Taco-C Experience
I really don't remember the specifics of this one, I just remember I ended up pass out on the floor of a Taco Cabana. Yeah...
3. The Beer-Olympics
Not much to say here other than a variety of drinking games, speed drinking games, and traditional games with drinking rules. All in all I had about 40 beers.
4. The Side of the Road Experience
So when my then girlfriend, current wife, were dating we went to one of her friends houses. I started playing some drinking game and just got hammered. She was driving back and I just couldn't hold it any longer, I had to vomit. She pulled over and I made it to the median and vomited in the grass and then passed out. The Wife didn't know what to do, just that some guy she had been dating a few weeks was passed out on highway 75 at 3 in the morning. She called a nearby friend to bring towels and some muscle because she's small, I'm not, and she couldn't pick me up if she had to.
I don't really know what happened, I just know she had to introduce one of her long friends to her then boyfriend, the drunk guy passed out in his own vomit on the side of highway 75 at 3 in the morning.
5. The Ballad of Lil' Pinky
So in a real fraternity at the big brother party someone made trash can punch was 50% Hawaiian Punch and 50% everclear. We put this stuff in traditional liquor bottles (1 liter) and my buddy and I finished off two, so I had about .5 liter of everclear.
If that wasn't enough, they also had jello shots where they used, you guessed it, everclear instead of water. I had like five of those. Finally, I had three or four bears.
Needless to say I was beyond trashed and almost had to be taken to the hospital.
All I remember is standing on the balcony of the shitty apartment we were at talking to some chics and then waking up half naked in a bath-tub. I pulled back the shower curtain and there was some other chick peeing and so I started talking to her. Over the next few years I found out more and more I did that night like dance half naked in the living or vomit all over the place outside and then falling over in it and rolling around in the vomit (assume how I ended up half naked in the bath-tub).
-edit-
Oh yeah, then there was also this.
