If the measure of a man...
 

...is the pace at which he drinks beer, then IndieMatty is truly a King among men.

Re: If the measure of a man...
 

I thought the measure of a man is typically height, but I could be wrong.

Re: If the measure of a man...
 

what does that make u?

Re: If the measure of a man...
 

excellent. I would also add in another qualifier: when does he order the next one. The fuller the glass, the better the man.

omg dude... you're missing out. Drinking beer without a beer bong is like trying to eat minute rice with chopsticks... you'll finish eventually, but there are much easier ways....

My first beer bonging experience was enlightening.

Re: If the measure of a man...
 

Our rugby team used to have "The Inebriator," which could hold 11 beers. It was basically a huge beer bong made from a lot of plastic piping and a huge dump valve and four lines. It has made many a man drunk.

I'm not sure if its still in existence or not.

Re: If the measure of a man...
 

that's it?

No real trip report or anything?

Just: Matty can snarf some beers?

I'm in the sixer club as well. I've only ever met one person who could also do that. My best attribute however is speed.

These were gentlemenly pints of Newcastle, there was no funnel.

Yes that still counts.

Re: If the measure of a man...
 

I worked in a medical bar where they had some big jar=thing called a 'tardis' that held 2 3/4 pints. You had to drink it in one was teh game. The rugby team used to come in, strip naked (completely) in a public bar, and drink these in front on a rubbish bin, so they could heave straight into it after drinking, and still carry on drinking.

Cool huh.

Met IndieMatty and 2+2 legend DrSavage for dinner last night. Paluka was supposed to join us, but he bailed at the last moment claiming he had "stuff to do." Weak. Anyway, that was all the better for the rest of us, since we no longer had to worry about going to a place that would cater to Paluka's pain in the ass vegetarian ways and could actually go someplace sweet.

Savage suggested a great Korean BBQ place near Penn Station. It was excellent.

We then proceeded to Tonic to watch baseball and have some drinks. I was drinking Stella, Matty was drinking Newcastle, and Savage stayed true to his Russian heritage by drinking vodka (and cranberry). I am embarrassed to say that in the course of the game, IndieMatty lapped me not once, but twice. I tried to save some face by challenging him to outdrink me on a weekend night, but it backfired as he confidently and dismissively mocked the challenge.

Almost an accurate report. Three laps though. You missed one when you were you in the bathroom (presumably puking).

Re: If the measure of a man...
 

In my defense the state of my kidneys doesn't allow me to drink beer and that has affected my choice of alcoholic beverage.
Good times were had by all.

Re: If the measure of a man...
 

Were you guys drinking bottles or pints? Draught Newcastle is notoriously smooth (low carbonation?), so the odds may have been stacked from the start. Well-done, IndieMatty.

So basically you went for quality and Matty went for quantity.

If you were a stranger I would put you on ignore. Newcastle is an amazingly tasty beer. What are you talking about?

Re: If the measure of a man...
 

This is incorrect. Newcastle is quality as well.

As well!?!? It's heads and shoulders above a Stella. (A fine beer in itself, but you can't even compare it to Newcastle)

Re: If the measure of a man...
 

What was the place and how'd you like it? I was just at a KBBQ place (I forget the name now, it's co-owned by Tarantino, in the West Village) that was very subpar IMO.

Did you have the bulgogi?

Agreed. Good times. Also, Santana Moss was filling those glasses with vodka, I think you got the better end of the deal.

I somehow doubt this, but whatever, i'm not going to get in a pissing match about this.

my funnel only holds 3-12oz beers, or else i would be putting more in it.

on a side note, it's good to see that one of my posts is being quoted [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]. i thought i was being ignored by a lot of people, which would be sad [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
