San Antonio Tops List of Drunken Cities

[The1calledTKE]

FRIDAY, April 2 (HealthDayNews) -- In San Antonio, they remember the Alamo but forget when to say when.

The metropolitan area around the historic Texas city has the highest rate of binge drinking -- imbibing till you're drunk -- in the entire United States, according to a new federal study. Other hotspots for booze consumption include the Midwest (particularly the Dakotas and Iowa) and Nevada, while teetotalers rule the roost in Mormon-dominated Utah as well as Chattanooga, Tenn.

Swell, LXA has two Chapters there, soon to be a third!

Well, that cannot help with the situatin!

I oftened wondered what in the Hell is there to do there in S A? Well besides the bars on the funky river that was built to be nice!

When I was at PSU, Ks, it set the most Kegs tapped in one day and Playboy said it was in the Top Ten of Schools, That was when I was there!

Wonders never cease!

I was very quiet as a College Student!

Hahaha.

But it's not just the natives down there. Lots of you touristo types get smashed along the RIverwalk as well.

Most of my drinkin in Texas was done in the College Station area, but i am glad to see that 2 of my residences have been named(SA and South Dakota) I'm sensing some discrimination.

At least for Madison, because the population of the town is miniscule compared to Milwaukee, and the drinking is WAY worse in Milwaukee for everybody (not just the Marquette, UWM, MIAD, MSOE) students. Milwaukee is a former brewing town, for those of you who did not know, and in addition to our segragation problems, we definitely also have the Irish/German/Polish alcohol problems.

And since my comrades and I turn 21 this year, we will be taking out North Dakota on that list.
