makes me forget whole nights? Ok we all have our vices, I usually go out drinking one sometimes two nights a week. I went out last night and the last thing i remember is taking shots of patron. I woke up in my bed this morning not knowing how i got there. I had to walk to work still f*cked up because my car is still at the club. One night this summer i went out in belmar (jersey shore) and again the patron was flowing like water, and again the same thing happened, but, that time i woke up on the beach in atlantic city (which is like 2 hours from belmar) and had to call my brother to pick me up. This only happens when i drink tequila. Can anyone explain it?

Same thing has happened to me on occasion. For me it's because the only times I've ever drank tequilla it was usually preceded by a large quantity of other types of alcohol. Tequilla just tastes too bad to drink socially. So if I ever have it, I've already had too much.

I hate to get drunk. It's like the "sane" part of my mind shuts off and instead of blacking out I have the ability to remember every stupid thing I did or said right up to the point of passing out in the toilet...*sigh*...good times.

God do I LOVE Tequila!!! The only time I lose track of events or feel like total shit the next day is when I mix-and-match a bunch of different liquors. My worse night was a night of Margaritas, beer, red wine, vodka shots, and finishing the night with a giant whiskey shot. Needless to say I was DONE the entire next day.
I have no less than 13 different bottles of premium tequilas in my bar right now!! Yum-Yum!!! [img]smile.gif[/img]
BTW, one of my 'tequila stories' had me dive head-first, in my underwear into a spa filled with about 10 people. I hit the seat with my mouth and did some damage that made my dentist a little richer.

Now that I think about it, I think every one of the (few) blackouts I've ever had involved tequila. It's a tough choice for best tequila story though, probably tied between the disappearing cigarette one and the karaoke singing one.
Wait a minute...those both happened on the same night, the night of my 21st birthday
I have eaten the worm (so ive heard the next day) and on my 21st (at kat man du in trenton) one of my shots was a sweaty mexican (tequila w/ a teaspoon of mayo). Anyways this past Saturday
i headed to atlantic city with my mind set on getting the better of the tequila. I started out drinking jack and cokes playing black jack at ballys. At around midnight i headed over to the cas bah, which is the nightclub at the taj (as a side note i highly recommend this place because the women are unbelieveable to say the least). This was where the patron started flowing and the night became a blur of women, body shots, dancing, and falling confetti (and we lost my friend tank). Anyways, somehow I ended up at the borgata again drinking jack and cokes and playing black jack until 10am where i befriended an asian man in his 70s who gave me his account of WWII (which i do not remember at all). On this night i think i got the better of the tequila. Next weekend im heading to u of delaware for homecoming so ill see what happens then. By the way i find stories involving alcohol to be very entertaining so post yours if you feel like it.
I have had too many tequila stories to fit into one post. Here's one of them though. Tequila does seem to have a cumulitive effect on one's judgment. A few years ago I spent 5 days in Cancun at a resort that was all inclusive, and I drank tequila from the moment I awoke till the moment I passed out for 5 straight days. On my last night there going down into Playa del Carmen and getting a tatoo seemed like a pretty cool idea! Thankfully I managed to avoid getting Hepititus-C (feel like I dodged a bullet), so I am thankful for that at least. And in retrospect, I kinda like my tatoo because there is a funny story behind it.
That takes you to one of the classic "morning after, now what DID I do last night" stories of all time, Dorothy Parker's "You Were Perfectly Fine," from The New Yorker in the 1930s sometime.
The worst story I can think of involves one of my brothers. He woke up in a motel in Durant, OK, with a woman he ddn't recognize next to him. When he went in the bathroom he found a wedding certificate on the sink.
He's been clean and sober for 17 years and now runs a group of drug and alcohol treatment centers.

I'm sure that I've got some tequila stories, if only some of my so-called friends would remind of them!
One thing I can recall was on my 21st birthday, my fraternity brothers took me out barhopping and I had tequila all night long. I remember 10 pm that night and nothing else until 10 am the next morning when I woke up on the front lawn of my fraternity house in my boxers and a "dew" covered blanket.
Hmmmmm......I probably shouldn't share this, but what the hell. Another tequila binge I started out drinking in Columbus, OH and woke up tied to some strange woman's bed in Dayton, OH. I still believe it was a "setup" created by my "so-called" fraternity brothers. UGH!

I went out drinking with work buddies for my 21st b-day. They got me totally trashed that night (everything went blank at around 12:15 am), and I apparently had quite a time after that. I made it in to work around 10:30 the next morning, and everyone in the office just kinda looked at me and grinned as I walked by. Took me forever to find someone who would tell me what I did the night before!
Oh yeah, and for those wondering what the hell I was doing at work at 10:30 the morning after my 21st, my roommate's dad was staying with us the night that all that occurred, and I really didn't want to hang around him while reeking of alcohol. Did I mention that he's a Baptist preacher?
My first shot of alcohol ever was tequila. I did two shots of Jose Gold in a Senior Frogs in Mexico. I hate tequila. The worst blackout I have ever had was with 40s. Me and some buddies decided to play Edward 40 hands. For those of you who haven't played it involves duct taping a 40 of malt liquor (people who play with beer are losers) to each hand. You can't take them off till both are gone. I showed up 20 minutes late and proceeded to slam them as fast as possible. Ended up vomitting all over a friends futon that night. Worst part is that my friends have most of it on tape. It sucks when they bring that out.

Danny, I just learned about the 40-hands game from my neighbor's kid. I thought he made it up, I had never heard of that before. Sounds like a REAL fun time.
We've played the 40 game before, but we call it "80 oz. to Freedom". What sucks it when you have to pee, which is often.
