Beer as a Recovery Drink
Those of you who know me well...or read this blog ever...know that I am OBSESSED with activities involving booze and sports/games. For instance, a few of my favorite things:
Check out Alkoholfrie Erdinger. Or Erdinger Alkoholfrie. Whatever. By way of ESPN the Mag- Google- Newser. According to this company, beer is a terrific post-exercise recovery drink. Forget what the experts are saying, I love where this company's think tank is going. What a great fucking idea.
From AP:
Beer: It's not just for couch potatoes anymore. A Bavarian brewmeister is touting its non-alcoholic beer as the latest sport drink for athletes, handing it out at the finish line of sporting events and touting its regenerative benefits. Unlike Gatorade, Erdinger Alkoholfrei is served up with a frothy head, and it comes in one color—a golden hue.
The company touts the beverage as an isotonic, vitamin-rich, no-additive beverage with natural regenerative powers that help athletes recover from a workout. In other words, it's carbohydrate-loaded refreshment without the alcoholic buzz of beer or the jitters caused by some energy drinks. "It's a very healthy product," says the US manager for Erdinger. But note: Alkoholfrei still contains less than 0.5% alcohol, making it a no-no in some states for anyone under 21.
Look I don't really give a shit if this stuff works. I'm buying it. Or O'Douls. Which is cheaper? The fact of the matter is I really don't care that at $10 a 6 pack it is more expensive than a gatorade, a thing of chocolate milk and a water bottle combined. Can it quench my thirst? Yes. Do I like beer? Yes. Will I probably add a shot of liquor because I don't really know what the point of "nonalcoholic" beer is? Of course. Will you be healthier with your compression socks and gallons of water? Decidely so. But I will be drunker. And there for much more fun than you.
- Tailgating football. Pro or College. With Booze.
- Watching football. Pro or College. With Booze.
- Beer Pong. Yes, it is a sport. In the pool or on land.
- Sloshball. If you don't know what this is, google it. I don't have time to educate.
- Beer leagues. Softball and kickball.
- Shuffleboard. The awesome kind. Not that bullshit- you're old and shouldn't really be moving kind.
- Running half marathons that involve booze. For instance- the Wine Country Half Marathon. My upcoming Vegas 13.1.
- Races that involve booze. Like the Skirtchaser which comes with 2 drink tickets that you redeem at the finish line. And also lots of single people.
- Shots and Ladders
- Cornhole
- Golf - driving range, putting, drunk driving the cart. Pretty standard stuff.

Thirsty Thursday!
Whoop Whoop! You know I love a couple of things in life and I'm going to list them in no particular order:
1. Drinking
2. My family
3. My friends
4. My bed
5. Alliteration
6. Games
Yeah, I love all those things. And I love that Thursdays can finally be alliterated since I've FINALLY figured out how to handle that alliteration. Thursdays alliteration has been around, I just haven't known how to approach it until AisforAwesome and I were shopping on Sunday and I stumbled over this:

Shut. The. Fuck. Up. God, I am such a damn dork but I love Sudoku so now you are telling me I can drink while playing...this is AMAZING. Anyway, you can click here to order it online for $9.95 plus shipping, handling, tax and all that shit. Or you can be lucky like me and stumble upon it in Marshall's for $4.99. I love my life.
The premise is simple- fill the puzzle out until it's complete. The last person to put a number in, wins. Everyone else finishes their drink. Bing. Bang. Boom.
Standard rules apply (can't have the same number in any row, column or square) but since you essentially MAKE the puzzle, anyone wins. You can also make it tougher by grabbing a sudoku book or puzzle from online and building it that way(you damn overachievers out there).
How does the drinking occur? Well my friends, the number tiles are double sided ( I love doublesided/reversible things too). Each turn you can play 4 tiles. Flip the fourth tile over and follow the directions which include: performing a gesture and the last one to do it drinks, making rules similar to kings cup, skipping a turn and taking a drink, assigning drinks to other players, social drinks and the arrow points out someone to drink. All in all pretty awesome and great for a small group of pregamers. Definitely something to do at the beginning of the night because as you get drunker I have a feeling this will get harder :)
