St Patty's Day & The Beer Mile

Happy St. Patrick’s Day to all! I already started the celebrating this past Saturday night by visiting a local Irish pub & consuming many delicious Guinness beers & a few Irish car bombs while listening to an authentic Irish band. Good times were had by all...except for the people who had a few too many car bombs way too early in the evening…you know who you are.

So last night my family was discussing the fact that we are of Irish decent & that we should really celebrate this years St. Patty’s day in some sort of incredible fashion. You know not just your boring green beer kind of celebration. So my sister suggested the Beer Mile. Which I thought was a spectacular idea. We then spent the rest of the evening tying to figure a way to get my parents to participate. We came up with some possible options for the people who might not actually be able to complete a “true” Beer Mile, but still want to combine sport & drinking. One idea was drink a half beer for every lap, another was to have a two person relay team and the last was a 100 yard dash, drink a beer followed by the ol’head on the end of a baseball bat & spin around 10 times. We’ll see if any of these ideas actually get put into action…I can only hope. Happy St. Patty’s Day & be safe.

There are many good reasons for drinking,
One has just entered my head.
If a man doesn't drink when he's living,
How in the hell can he drink when he's dead?
