pony keg prop bet
 

not too many details have been ironed out, just the general gist of the bet.

two 24 year old guys, both pretty large and heavyweight drinkers. 4 hours to finish a pony keg off without throwing up.

a pony keg = 82 x 12 oz beers. it will be a light beer of their choosing.

this is likely going down next weekend. doable?

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

not in 4hours

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

No f'in way.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

Nope, not in 4 hours, not if you are right about it being ~41 beers each.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

41 beers each in four hours? Yeah, good luck with that.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

Put as much money as you can at any odds against them, sell stuff and take out loans.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

for the record i am on the 'no way' side of this bet.

bear in mind both of these guys are pretty big and huge drinkers.

there has also been talk of the bet being the two of them finishing a 1/6th-barrel keg in 2 hours. which is about 54 12 ounce beers.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

Unless these guys have a Kobayashi stomach it's not possible to hold that much in your stomach at one time.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

i think they assume they are going to be able to piss a lot out over the four hours.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

chuddo,

They are idiots and you are no better for making this post. Take the action [censored].

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

OK, lets figure out how they might do it. My guess would be to take laxatives before hand and just have the runs the whole time to get the stuff out of their bodies as fast as possible.

Also, can they puke right after the 4 hours?

30 beers in 3 hours 40 minutes MIGHT be doable ending with huge chugging of 10 beers in 20 minutes, bell rings they puke like hell.

I think you could mathematically work it out with the aid of google in half an hour.

What you need is avg volume of a human stomache, avg 'absorbtion' rate of liquids by the digestive system, quick bit of basic math and you should be there.

Im quite sure its impossible however.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

ken,

no puking immediately after finishing. i think there will be a 15-30 minute period after the final beer they will have to hold it down.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

I drank roughly a case in about four hours once, with a funnel. It all came right back up seconds before I passed out.

Wiki says a pony keg is about 85 12 oz. beers. You can lose a lot of beer to spillage with a keg, particularly if you aren't trying to be careful. Even if you lose 10 beers, you are still talking about the equivalent of 36+ beers each, or 3 12-packs in 4 hours.

That's like drinking 9 cans of beers an hour, less than 7 minutes per can. Take a bottle or can of beer and try drinking one in under 7 minutes. I'd bet against it.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

I just drank one, it took me about one minute. It was pretty tasty.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

I think they would have a lot of trouble drinking that much water, and couldn't even do it if it were pop.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

there's no way they can do this
the problem isn't stomach volume, it's alcoholic content.
it is possible to drink 11 beers in an hour, but 44 beers in 4 will send you to the hospital

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

Only possible if they are skinny Japanese dudes. They can do anything.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

drinking 480 oz of water in 4 hours will kill you. drinking 480 oz of beer in 4 hours will also kill you. they will not even get remotely nearly even close by a giant long shot. bet the bank.

where do u get this stat from?
i don't think the water would kill you. but i have no basis for saying that...i just don't see why it would.
I've drank 20-30 beers in 4 hours before (and puked soon thereafter)...i could def do 41 x 12oz water...no way that would kill me.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

you actually drown if im not mistaken. that or i remember hearing that your cells absorb too much water and actually explode. but its 720 in teh morning and i havent slept so thats probably not right.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

of course i thought it was impossible as well. very good chance this is going down next weekend. this thread has served as a primer for the results. pictures will be included of course.

i am curious as to how much water one person could drink in 2 hours.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

If you google "Water Intoxication" you'll find that when you reach somewhere around 1 qt. of water per hour you become in serious danger. Too much water and no salt throws your body out of equilibrium. Your cells start take on water and expand, causing problems with your brain and other organs.

It seems like some college kids died from this in recent years during hazing activities etc, from just water and not booze.

It is a common thing to happen to marathon runners, etc, who are sweating out all of their salt and drinking too much water without any. This is why Gatorade etc is much better to drink to replenish your fluids and your salt.

Take the action. Get them to lay massive odds by making you the beneficiary of a life insurance policy.

This is clearly wrong. You mean you never drank a quart (roughly 1 liter) of liquid in an hour?

He obviously meant 1 per hour over a sustained period of time (I assume like 4 hours or something)

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

me and a buddy of mine, we're not big...like 6'0 175 pounds..but we drink a hell of a lot...we're in panama city spring break one time so we were ready to drink..we got 2 cases of the beast and finished them by bonging them in about 6 hours..mighta been like a few stray beers bonged by some stragglers too...so id say 22 beers a piece by bonging and we were hella drunk..like barel walk drunk. With saying that, if they are big guys and drinkers like you'd say, if they bonged them (which is their best shot) theres no way in hell. They will definately throw it up, id say they can get down 30 beers in the 4 hours at best. Bet it all!!

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

only Wade Boggs could do this

if u dont know what i mean, ask around

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

I'd bet any amount of money against this actualy happening. I drink like a fish, and there's no way in hell I can finish 40+ beers in 4 hours.

I say the max they can get down in 4 hours is like 25.

edit: these guys are obviously not actualy hard drinkers like you say, because anybody who actualy drinks hard would know this is impossible.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

AEKDBets' stomache could hold the volume, not sure about the alcohol though.

I will drink 4 liters of water over 4 hours. Bring it.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

see you at the hospital...or more likely with a janitor's mop in your hand. Whatever you do, do not hold this event at your place because option one could present a legal issue, and option two is quite messy. No way this is accomplished.

This can be done, but no way they do the pony in 4.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

no chance, they could easily do it if they were allowed to throw up though.

Yeah if you're running a marathon, all the tread mill jockeys at your local gym will be just fine drinking water.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

This all sounds pretty impossible but they are so confident I am having my doubts. There stats are probaly 6'3 270 and 6'0 300. One of the guys drank a 1.75 of vodka in the course of a day back when we were freshmen in college and he only weighed 200 pounds.

He failed out of school for drinking too much and was forced to move to ashland,ky where we are from. There is nothing to do in Ashland except go to one bar attached to a hotel. Over the course of the next 2 year he went to this bar approximetly 5 times a week.

He also has a serving job that allows him to drink while he works.

The other contender in this bet has almost the exact same situation. Lives in Ashland and works as a bouncer at the bar that everyone goes to. At work 5 nights a week he drinks, and on his days off he goes to the bar and drinks.

I first proposed this prop bet after a group of our friends got a pony keg for a football game. I thought there was no way it was possible. But they are so confident that it has me worried. They can drink ridiculous amounts of alcohol.

They have been working towards this challenge their entire lives.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

Still no way this can be done and I dont really think it's close.

I think he means over a long period of time. However, I think this figure is for times > 4 hours, probably more like 8 or 9. Might still be possible then.

1.75 liters of vodka? that would be 0.7L pure alcohol.
unless i have my ounces and [censored] mixed up (WHEN WILL YOU PEOPLE START USING A REAL MEASUREMENT SYSTEM?!?!?), we're talking about 30 liters of beer here. even if it is of the pansiest variety, say 4%, which is so laughable that it wouldnt even be sold where i live, that would still be 1.2 liters of pure alcohol, nearly twice as much.
i vote that this cant be done, due to pure volume AND alcohol.
only way the guy can win is with some sort of shenanigan.
bet your bankroll.

Re: pony keg prop bet
 

The 1.75 was over the course of about 20 hours on a saturday of non stop drinking.

I will try to find some pictures of these 2 bulls and post them.

For the record I dont think it could be done either. I just think they have a chance.

10 beers an hour for 4 hours. Putting it like that, it doesnt sound that improbable to me.
