Evaluate this drinking prop bet - Page 6

I weigh 190 and have had a few 4 day binges where I had more than 20 drinks each day. For 800 bucks + free alcohol I'd just make a long weekend out of it and have a great time.

If your friend didn't specify what proof the vodka had to be then you should forget popov and just get the highest proof vodka you can find. I'm not sure how high vodka goes but it goes up to at least 100proof and even that has him drinking 10% more alcohol pershot.

I think it is more of a battle of will, because come the 3rd day of doing absolutely nothing but drinking for awhile, Id find it hard to keep going

didnt read the whole thread. did you say how big the shots are? 1oz, 1.25 is standard, 1.5?

I forgot to mention that throwing up over 3 times in 1 day= failure. Also to those saying take 5 shots and throw up, each shot adds 30minutes to the *throw up queue* i.e if he takes 5 shots the throw up limit goes to 2hrs 30minutes.

To be honest I think a lot of people are underestimating the will required to continue drinking constant when no one else is drinking with you. Also as mentioned the amount he loses if he chooses to give up is not a large amount to him by any means and I feel the *[censored] it* thoughts will get to his head by day 3 or so and he will choose to just end it rather than push on.
To the people mentioning remedies and things, while this is a bet he is also my good friend and he is also lazy, so 1. I think he wouldn't try to search out ways (such as those herbs) to overcome the alcohol. 2. He understands what the purpose of this bet is and would probably feel that using something like that is a pussy way out.

Does he have to do them as shots? If not, seems easy. Wake up with a few double screwdrivers, a two martini lunch, and a few vodka tonics with dinner and a nightcap. Thats a easy day of drinkin if there is no work or other responsabilities to attend to for the 4 days. If you go with 1.5 oz shots...you are looking at about a fifth a day. Def not an out of this world accomplishment, as me and one of my friends can destroy a 1.75 liter of smirnoff in a matter of a few hours.

He will own you. We used to do 20+ shots during/after football games in college. He'll need to train, tolerance > just weighing a lot.

If you space it out, stay hydrated and eat, don't go to class or whatever, plus you can sweat some of it out of your system by exercise, etc. You are laying 8-1? LOL.

Popov makes this a great bet for you. If he drank grey goose it would be an easy win for him.

any restraints on eating while drinking? also, can he use a chaser???

You got it. Grey Goose is consistently slaughtered in blind taste tests.
