Pozzo, Lucky & Andre


Following up on Chris' post about Andre the Giant and his prodigious drinking - Andre the Giant was born Andre Rene' Roussimoff in France.

He got so large that he couldn't ride the school bus anymore and his parents were too poor to afford a car.

Luckily, a kind neighbor helped Mr. The Giant out and regularly drove him to school.

The neighbor? Samuel Beckett - the Irish Nobel Prize winning author of Waiting for Godot fame. Talk about random.

"Sorry, Inigo, I didn't mean to jog him so hard"


If you were to think back about the time where you threw back your highest total of beers in one sitting, what would it be? If you had to try it now, how high could you get? 20? 30?

Compared to one man, you would be a complete vag.

When it comes to getting a buzz, what does it take for you? Does it approach this answer: “It usually takes two liters of vodka just to make me feel warm inside.”

Who is the King Drinker of All Time?

Andre the Giant. Easily. I direct you to this marvelous article.

Wrestling star. Movie star. Drinking star.
