A Long Overdue Drinking Story

January 12 2009

It’s been awhile since I’ve had a good drinking story to share with everyone. Luckily, this past Saturday was a great time that is worth sharing.

The Beginning

My Saturday started like any other day, with a bowl of cereal and some orange juice. Little did I know, I would end up consuming like 8,000 calories after that. The drinking started when my girlfriend and I decided to go to a Mexican bar and restaurant here in Phoenix for some fajitas and margaritas.

Of course, we order a pitcher of Margaritas instead of small ones. Might as well get the best bang for your buck. After drinking those I already had a little buzz going and I was stuff from the fajitas.

The Cardinals Party

From there, we went to Cadillac Ranch for the Cardinals viewing party put on by Buweise. I was jacked up for the game because I knew the Cardinals could win. We got there around 2:30 so we could get a seat somewhere by the TV. Unfortunately, this gave me 3 and a half hours of drinking time before the game even started.

I started with the 2 dollar bud lights and probably had like 4 or 5 of them before kick off. At that point, I was starting to get a little drunk but I was too occupied with the game to notice.

Weekend Drunkfest

May 5 2008
by Justin Wright

Myspace GraphicsHappy Cinco De Mayo to Everyone!

This weekend was…well, pretty eventful. Saturday was a drunkfest like no other.

It all started with volleyball around 2 pm, which is when the tequila first made its appearance. It was all down hill from there. We played for a good 4 hours and drank a few pitchers of Margaritas before we decided to call it quits. By the end of it, everyone was so drunk it was nothing but bitching and complaining about teams cheating.

So did everyone go home and call it an early night after we were done? Of course not…and this is was happened.

Friend 1:

He got kicked out of the bar for no apparent reason. He tried wearing my hat to…

Beer Pong Invades CVS Stores

April 29 2008
by Justin Wright

So I was wandering around a CVS Pharmacy here in Phoenix yesterday, when I managed to find something interesting. I was checking out the liquor section (of course) and saw some plastic cups and ping pong balls.

My first thought was, Beer Pong! And then I thought how convient it was to put these items near the beer. I have never seen a store, other than liquor stores, put items like this near the alcohol.

What I found to be even more interesting, was the fact that the price tag said table Ping Pong balls/beer pong right on it. Check out the pic:

So I guess drinking games are finally becoming recognized as real games, lol. Whats next? I am guessing…

Parking Lot Drinking at USC

April 15 2008
by Justin Wright

Me at USCOne of the things I did while in Los Angeles was hang out at the University of Southern California. One of my roommates was originally supposed to attend a seminar their but we were not able to find it.

So what did we do instead?

Well, we walked around for a little while and took a few pictures. As we were walking back to our car on the top of a USC parking lot, a guy asked if we wanted a beer.

Of course, being who we are, we decided to accept. The next thing I know, my roommate and I are drinking tall boys of Coors Light on top of the parking ramp overlooking the courtyard they have on campus.

Not So Average Easter

So yesterday was Easter Sunday and I must admit mine was anything but ordinary. There was no Easter Egg hunts or Easter Bunnies in this story, just booze, partying, and some bad decisions. From the beginning of the day until 12 am, my Easter was out of control.

It started by waking up at 9, about as hungover as you can possibly be. My friend walks in and invites me to church and I agree to go since it was Easter.

So the next thing I know, I am sitting at church with my 3 friends. One of them is whispering in my ear that this would be a great place to meet girls. Probably not the best thing…

5 Reasons You Should (And Shouldn’t) Party On Weekdays

March 13 2008
by Justin Wright

Last night was another interesting night to say the least. It started with a roommate spilling a drink on his pants and getting accused of pissing himself at the bar. And ended up with 6 people riding home in a mustang, which involved one person riding in the trunk (not me!). So this morning when I woke up, it got me thinking. What are the pro’s and con’s to going out on the weekdays versus the weekends?

Here is what I managed to come up with.

5 Reasons You SHOULD Go Out on Weekdays:

1. Drinks Are Dirt Cheap

Last night at The Vine, in Tempe, it was a $5 cover and 1 dollar u-call its. That is a deal that…

The Best Hangover Cures

March 9 2008
by Justin Wright

Hangover CureIts 12:21 PM and I figured it was a good time to slide off my bed and crawl into the living room. Then run through the day-after checklist:

iPhone, Check. Wallet, Check. Keys, Check.

Looks like everything is intact. Last night was a tad rough, considering I feel like I got hit by a bus. I am in search of a miracle cure to help get me over this hangover. Now that Airborne is no longer an option, what other hangover cures are available?

Well, I turned to my trusted friend Google to find some answers. I found a ton of websites and scanned through a ton of them and decided to make a list of some of the best (and…

Blowing Minds One at a Time

Well its officially Sunday, the crappiest day of the week. This weekend was another long weekend of booze, bars, sun, and live music.

It was 85 degrees yesterday so we hit up Dos Gringos at like 5 and drank a couple buckets of Corona. It is an outdoor bar and they had a live band playing all night. After that, we hit up an Irish Pub and drank New Castles all night.

What I enjoy about going out and talking to new people everyday, is the conversations I have with people. It seems like every conversation starts with the two question: Where are you from? and What do you do?

Here is one I had last night with a woman from…

Malibu Beach Bash

Paddle!!Well let’s see, I paddled a boat, deflated a few beach balls, and ate a ton of food. That is the recap of last night’s Winter Beach Bash sponsored by Malibu in Scottsdale.It was a crazy party for a couple reasons. First off, there was no cover charge which vary rarely happens here in Phoenix, especially Scottsdale. And second, drinks were complimentary. Yeah that’s right, all you can drink and eat until midnight.

They had like 100 bottles of Malibu to use for the night and I probably drank 3 of them.They had a few different drinks to choose from. As you can see in this picture, I crossed off the different ones I tried and put how many I…

More Partying…And A Free Pancake Breakfast

Last night was yet again another night out on the town. We hit up Margarita Rocks for like the 10th Friday in a row. It’s always a good night when you walk in the door and order a fishbowl Long Island Iced Tea for your first drink.

Today my apartment complex put on a free pancake breakfast from 9 – 11 and I somehow crawled out of bed to go get some free food. I made it there around 10:45 just in time to eat and take home all the leftovers to eat later.

Tonight were planning on heading back down to Tempe…not sure where yet. Tomorrow is the Trillium volleyball tournament which I am signed up to be in with…
