Another good one. I was in Boston in June 2006 at Microsoft TechEd for a week. Met 5 coworkers there. One of them was a recovering alcoholic, in from Denver CO. One night, we were all out drinking (he fell off the wagon). We all got back to the same hotel around 11pm or so. Found out the next morning that he had went back out drinking, got lost in downtown Boston and paid a homeless man $20 to help him find the hotel. Lucky he didn't get jacked.

Most I've ever drank...we were playing having a house party at my house and my band was playing in the basement. It was Christmas break, and I think it was that golden week between Christmas and New Years, so there were a lot of people ready to party. We bought a handle of dark Puerto Rican Rum for the band to drink on for the show, but since I went and got it, I started early. It was still daylight when I started drinking and we starting playing around 11. I remember toting around that handle with me as we bounced from neighbor house to neighbor house until the party finally came back to my house for the show.

About halfway through the set, I just lost it. I toppled over backward, taking out a lamp and hitting my head on the wall. I was out for a few seconds then came to and tried to pick back up where I left in the song. Everyone started cheering. Not long after that, I vaguely remember running up the stairs and the rest is black. I woke up in my bedroom, with puke stains on the floor, in a new set of clothes. My friends said I locked myself in the bathroom and they had to break in to see if I was alive.

I was pretty close to needing to go to the hospital level. I drank almost an entire handle.
