Happy Cuatro de Mayo!
Cuatro de Mayo, the alcoholic’s Cinco de Mayo, is upon us! A number of the OC staff will be at Sixth Street Bar & Grill at around 8:00 tonight quaffing down Margaritas of various sizes. Will anyone be able to trump the current record of Four El Dorados in one night? Will the Sixth Street staff have enough glasses for all of us to drink at once? And which significant other will have the hardest time dragging their passed-out partner home? You’ll have to come by and see for yourself!

The El Dorado record is a tie, however there was one participant who also quaffed a beer back and a jaeger shot, making him (to my mind) the winner.
He is knurd!

Man, I remember that. Is this anonymous drinker with a liver of solid gold also a recent law school graduate?

I actually only had three that night. Olly is the champ atop the El Dorado mountain. But yes, as Tim says, I did beat him that night.

Was that only three? God, man, I can’t even keep up anymore.
I wasn’t even really drinking and I’m senile, what’s that say about me?

I believe Olly and Michael both have downed four in a night. I do not recall who was the more lucid of the two.
As sad as this is to say, my personal best is only two… and I was in pretty bad shape afterwards.

Ian: Don’t feel bad, I’ve never attempted the El Dorado Challenge, I am simply not and never was man enough for it.

In my defense, I did drink the Jager shot. I did not drink the beer back. Who the hell orders a Jager shot with a beer back?
However, I did not subsequently vomit.
Wish I could be there to observe, but I’m sure you’ll all keep the dream alive in my absence. The dream of… El Dorado.

I don’t know how in the hell I’ve never seen the movie.

It’s burgers and Budweiser at the Looney household. Return the favor- boycott Cinco de Mayo!

I did match Olly, but olly did have the extra booze - all I had was the El Dorados. So he has me edged out.
For the record, I had 3 El Dorados and some sort of martini (I think) last night. Woke up with a hangover… that hasn’t happened for a long time.

On my right I have pissed off white-trash redneck conservative…… And on my left I have aging hippie liberal douche………

Michael: Dude, it wasn’t a martini, it was a cosmo.

GAAAAYYYYYY.

To Michael’s defense I ordered it for him.
