Everything's bigger in Texas....
....including the hangover.
So the Texas Mickey Massacre went down and I'm proud to say that I'm still alive. As was expected, the night was a showdown between the teams of Cake, Joe Kennel, Shitko and Stiffler vs. Myself, Moose, Disgrace and Jay Dietrich. Our two bottles stood beside each other while all other teams watched in awe at the falling levels of rye in each. I may be embelishing this a little, but not by much as there were reports of other teams shocked at the progress reports of our rye. We were the only two teams to finish all their rye. This of course was not without cost as both teams defaulted in the end. I believe (according to other's accounts and video evidence) that I was responsible for our team's default as I came to rest on the lawn and was missing my consciousness at the time. Luckily however, Shitko, who was recruited from London, happened to be praying to the porcelain god around the same time. It was a shame that no champion was declared, because as Moose mentioned earlier in the night... everyone (who lives...) will be a winner.
On a side note, I'd like to thank Jay for joining the team. He stepped in when needed and gave his 110% effort. I hope that in his time spent down at the drunk tank he was the big spoon cause he certainly deserved at least that much for the great show he put on.
All I can say is that the video speaks volumes more...possibly because cameras are always sober. Toss your stories this way cause I would love to hear them.

Well it was quite an evening. I am happy to say that myself (Cake) and joe were the only ones to not puke, or pass out or get arrested. We did our team proud, and are looking into forming a new team for the next showdown with Moose and Disgrace. Other than that, I loved the party. I can't believe I drank that much and was still able to make conversation with the police, and sober enough to colour the right half of Clellands body black with white board marker. Sorry about that buddy, but soeone had to do it, and it is best that it was me, at least now next time we are drinking together and I pass out you can get me back. The Texas Mickey showdown, what a great night. Not something you see everyday, and hopefully I don't ever have to participate in another one ever again, even thoguh I would jump at the chance. Thanks to Fedy and his boys for hosting it. Can't wait to see the video, because I guess I talk alot about boobies.

For the record, I didn't puke or pass out either. I tripped over Clelland a few times trying to rescue him off the lawn when the cops showed up... but that's it. People said we looked like we were in the middle of a warzone - I was trying to drag Clelland's injured and damaged carcass toward safety. But alas, I was seeing triple. I didn't need to get arrested for the team, because Jay already took care of that.
While waiting for a cab, my roommate challenged me to some football on the front lawn. While seeing triple, I pictured Mick from the Rocky movies in my head yelling "hit the one in the middle, Rock!" Hit the one in the middle I certainly did. My roommate now has a broken ankle in two spots... and I remember nothing. I'm glad to hear that the Booze Gods kept everyone's livers functional for the night. I don't know rye we didn't win, and don't really care. Remember, there are no losers in these contests... It's an honour just being nominated.

The video turned out magnificently. I can't believe I got virtually every stumble, penalty shot, arguement... kristen and I also got all the lawn action on tape. Plus exclusive interviews and team coverage. As soon as I can get it transferred onto videotape everyone will get a chance to watch it!
It's wild how quickly these boys turned on eachother once they were wasted! holy shit i've never seen so many best friends/roommates get furious at eachother out of nowhere!
My favorite parts were towards the end... at 10:45 everything was under control... at 10:50 all hell broke loose and sloppy punches were being thrown, pants came off... some refused to pull their pants back up... etc.
All in all it was a great party and it's allll on tape!
