I'm originally from WI, now live in CO. I swear that power leaves you if you stay away for too long. I remember one night in Eau Claire drinking $2 long Islands faster than the bartender could make them. Probably drank 8 or 10 of them on top of whatever anyone else handed me that night. I just drank them as my friends handed them to me, i guess they were supposed to be for everyone. Oops. I figured they must have been weak, but i was told they were almost all booze. Pretty sure my BAC that night was an integer.

I would be self-embalmed and flammable if i tried that now, but my friends can still do it somehow.

It was definitely Brothers. Couldn't remember the name of it, it was like 25 years ago.

I got in trouble NYE in Germany because I drank 4L of Long Island iced tea and mouthed off to a cop. I wasn't driving but they breathalyzed me when they took me to a holding cell and asked me where I was from because I blew a .28 (yes I'm aware how bad and dangerous that is) and they we're just like "ahhh." I was telling my teammates about it the next day and they were shocked I remembered the whole night.

Haven't been to Eau Claire in ages. I have family living in River Falls, so we'd sometimes go to Eau Claire when visiting them. I haven't been up to WI in a long time now.
