The drunkest you've ever been at a game

Man, I was so snapped at a Leafs at Buffalo game. I'm not a Leafs fan, but I went on a bus package with some of the hardest drinkers I've seen. You couldn't even walk down the aisles for all the styrofoam coolers..piss all over the place. The border was a joke. The guy stepped on the bus...took one look...stepped right off.

I barely remember the game. Flutie was big in Buffalo at the time, so they brought up a case of Flutie Flakes..and used them as confetti.

When TO would score, the Flutie Flakes would rain down from the stands..and 40 guys bellowing out Argo fight songs. Complete mayhem.

Security didn't even try to maintain order.

You sure you guys weren't sitting behind me at the Bills-Pats game back when Flutie was playing for the Bills? Bunch of crazed Argo/Flutie fans on Canada Day at Rich Stadium. It was a blast.

It might have been the same guys. They were hardcore drunks & sportsheads. All in good fun, of course. The Buffalo fans around were laughing their asses off.

I got REALLY drunk on a similar bus tour to go see a Montreal/Ottawa game a few years back. The bus left Ottawa around 9 a.m. and the ailes were filled with coolers of beer. Everyone on the bus was just starting to get buzzed as we arrived in Montreal around 11 a.m. I can't remember where the bus dropped us off, but we must have hit at least 20 pubs and strip clubs on the walk to the game. Needless to say all of us were pretty loaded before they even dropped the puck.

It was great time. Of course I wasn't a fan of the Visa bill I got a month later....

I'd tell you all about it, but I don't remember anything... :P

I've been pretty gooned at a lot of Flames games, but one that sticks out is when we went to a Flames-Senators game in the Corel Centre. We don't have those Big Gulp sized beers out west, so my eyes bugged out when I saw them. Having already consumed a few pints at a (relatively) close watering hole, we challenged ourselves to drink as many $14 Big Gulp beers as we could.

I did pretty well, and I know we pissed off a lot of people that night. We were on the front row on the 3rd level, and when the Flames scored, we made sure people knew... heh. One older couple asked the usher to be moved. Here I thought the Saddledome was usually a reserved crowd!!

Anyway, looking back on that night and the amazing feat that it was that it was that we actually made it back to our hotel rooms in one piece, I'm glad to say that I've matured since then.

The drunkest i've been was at the Canada/Sweden game at the Salt Lake olympics. We got off the plane at 9:00am and drank until the game started at 5:00pm. Of course it's impossible to order a beer at a pub or restaurant anywhere in Salt Lake, so we picked up a few flats of beer and had to drink at our hotel

If that's the only game you managed to see during those 2 weeks, that's a shame. :lol:

I like the kind of drunk where you stand up for an exciting play and when you sit down, you either end up on the arm rest or in the seat next to it. I'll do my drinking in the pregame and the first period and hopefully I get out of my haze when the third period rolls around.

This one's easy. '99 Western Finals Game 7, Stars vs. Colorado. Had about 3 or 4 in me before I set foot in Reunion Arena. Our seats were great...on the aisle, last row of the lower bowl, a men's room and beer stand right by the exit. Both saw a lot of me. Oddly, it was the only "easy" win for either team of that whole epic series, Mike Keane with two big goals. Loudest/most intense/drunkest sporting event I've ever been to.
