We had 250 lb guys and 110 lbs ladies. The drink # was less important a factor than you'd think.

The smallest girl drank 6 and the biggest guy drank 9. The BAC range was like .07 to .15 IIRC

In how long a time?

So if I drink one drink and feel buzzed, I'm not legally drunk, I'm good to go??

But if someone who drinks on a more regular basis does not "feel drunk" after say 3-4 drinks, but they ARE legally drunk, he/she is screwed?

Is that correct? Did they cover that ground too?

Based on how much I drink, and my performance today I'd say frequency of being drunk means nothing compared to the physical condition of the person slurping.

Good Luck to you Jerry, its really not all that easy to hold good balance. My Wii Fit makes me very aware of that!

I challenge all to do A simple balance test, stand on one leg and hold your balance with no assistance for 1 minute. Go ahead dont cheat and report back how many seconds you make it.
