This post needed more love. Nothing like brothers posting drinking records on a garage wall
I highly doubt this. My vision is that EG finishes his last pint, and enjoys one extra one while eating a large pizza at his same bar stool. The crowd is cheering his conquest and random coeds that he's never even seen are flashing their breasts in awe of his accomplishment. There will be no passing out. Just pure euphoric celebration.
this thing will be 400 pages long by then

I truly regret that statement. I'm now starting to understand the sort of man EG is. You bring up a great question too. The one we should've asked off the bat. Are pints 17+ free?This post needed more love. Nothing like brothers posting drinking records on a garage wallI highly doubt this.

I would love that. What I instead envision is cajoling the Ox to grow a pair and go out there with me because all my Orlando friends bailed out after they realized it was an hour drive home. After 3 hours of pleading, he finally gets shaken loose, but has to wait until his kids get to bed first because his wife won't allow him to leave before helping her get them settled. He arrives at my place at 8:30 and we get to the pub by 9:00, giving us 4 1/2 hours to complete the challenge by last call. I proceed to drink a pint every 15 minutes trying to get to the finish line. By pint 11 or 12, I'm so bloated I want to throw up. I sack up and get the last 4-5 pints down just before the bar closes. Drooling and farting, I'm handed a low-quality t-shirt and my $50 back as the few remaining coeds look at my distended belly and hear my wet belches and back slowly away, their faces contorted into a rictus of horror and disgust. My ghastly visage is of course captured on film for me to look at on the wall every time I walk into this place from here on out. The 53 year old cougar with the bolt-ons and the skin that looks like cheese sliding off a slice of pizza right out of the oven and held upright gives me her best come-hither glance, but I steamroll her in an effort to get to the door and hurl onto A1A. After doing so, I stagger the four blocks home, but accidentally go north rather than south, and get lost. I pass out on the beach and wake up the next morning to a cop on an ATV writing me a ticket for sleeping on the beach in a puddle of my own piss and barf.This post needed more love.

This is wonderful. We must have video.

You want live, streaming video for 4+ hours? Not sure how to accomplish that, I don't have the hardware.

ask the bar owner if they can do it- may be good for publicity / marketing?

I can ask, but this place doesn't seem like the type of joint that would have the gear. Hell, they don't even have their own web page, they have a Facebook and MySpace profile, and that's the extent of their web presence. Googling the challenge brings up something like 3 hits, 2 of them on some Brevard County metromix page.

I'd wait for football season and do it on a Sunday, nothing like slamming on a spread to get you to forget what your doing....well besides beer.

YOu have a laptop with a webcam? Voila. I'm sure they have WIFI.

if you webcam it and word gets out, might be way more viewers than FBG, who doesn't like rooting for this type of thing?

.30% Stupor - Likely to pass out involuntarily (as opposed to lower BAC's where you may decide to stop drinking and go to sleep); if pass out, may be difficult for others to wake you; possible to die from alcohol poisoning or choking on vomit at this level and higher.35% Equivalent to general anesthesia, breathing may stop.
.40% Coma likely, breathing and heartbeat slowed to dangerous levels due to slowdown in nerve activity.

how about 9 hours?

My thought on streaming is this: IT will be boring. Watching a dude drink beer will be funny for the first 30 mins or so when he's plowing through them. After that it will be a bit dull.
NOW: Having EG shoot little 1 minute videos at the tail end of every beer giving updates and saying a few words, then posted live to facebook or twitter, THAT will be gold. Especialy when edited together and posted after the event.

At a company function (tradeshow in Orlando) this january a VP in our company got so bad off that a couple of us had to call an ambulance. Vomiting, Completely unresponsive. Couldn't wake him. He was admitted with a BAC of .32. Hospital wouldn't release him to us until about 7am the next morning.

EG, do you or any of your buddies have an iPhone? VERY easy to shoot short videos and post to twitter and facebook with one. I'm sure android has a comparable setup as well.

Must be the creamy texture. I am pretty sure I could do 16 pints of a lite beer in a long day, I am positive I could not drink 16 pints of Guinness.This tastes-great, more-filling formula defies nutritional expectations because Guinness is so low in alcohol, a source of empty calories. Guinness is 4.2 percent alcohol by volume, the same as Coors Light. Budweiser and Heineken check in at 5 percent.Not really.

Interesting idea. I think the timeframe may end up being established by when I get the Ox out there.IMO you really need to get this account set up:http://twitter.com/2gallongauntletThen tweet updates/pics as it goes on.

So the calculator suggests possible death, but the average FBG thinks he would have no problem doing this?
how about you run that calculator again using a longer time frame? He's got 14 hours here. No reason to pound the beers in 5.

so at how many hours does this go from impossible/difficult/easy? the no food thing becomes more of an issue the longer its stretched too.

There will be if I can't get anyone out earlier than 8:30 to start, which is a possibility if I don't want to go it alone.

It's all about tolerance. Again, I did this Wednesday NIght (2 nights ago) and was just fine. Walking around Beale street checking out bands afterward. Got home and watched an hour of Walking Dead. Popped another beer to sip on while watching the show but barely got through half of it. I certainly didn't feel 100% the next day but it wasn't that big of a deal. EG72 and I are a lot alike in a lot of ways... one of which is our constitution. I'm 100% confident he gets through this and is quite lucid at the end.

How is that "quite over the top"? Have you guys never heard of Chaser? That's pretty much all that stuff is. And If you can drink 16 pints and not have a hangover, then good on you I guess. I certainly couldn't, but I wouldn't take 8 hours to do it either.but an experienced drinker like EG should be able to do this anytime he wants. he doesn't need charcoal tablets or the most watered down beer there is.I can't do this. :shurg:it's 21 12oz beers. how does anyone fail at this?

I think you are bumping up against a value issue here.
It's true that the challenge would probably be easier to complete using Bud Light. But a pint of BL can't cost more than, what, $2.50 at the bar? That's $40 in beer. And, c'mon, what's the shirt worth, $5 maybe? Which means you are basically throwing $5 away, which brings a distinct air of flippant irresponsibility to an otherwise dignified and intelligent challenge.
Now, with the Guinness, you are probably topping out at over $4 or so, which gets you to $64 of beer. Tack on the $5 for the shirt and you make almost $20 on the deal. Now that's thinking with your head! At the end of the challenge, the whole bar will look at you laying on the floor, barely coherent and say, "Now, THERE is a smart fellow! Someone who really knows the value of a dollar!"
As an aside, for your weight, I'd definitely make it an 8 hour visit. That puts you at one beer every half hour, which seems doable. Shorter than that you probably put yourself in jeopardy of finishing the challenge and/or of living through the experience.
Overall, I'd do 2 things:
1) Maximize your profits, drink the most expensive beer they will serve you for the challenge.
2) Call a cab, you are going to be wrecked.

Great post, but to your two points :1) They give you your $50 back if you finish. They keep it if you don't. Finishing is of paramount importance if you want it to be a profitable evening.2) I'm going to be living 4 blocks away as of April. No cab needed. That's why I'm doing this then and not in the next week or so.

What will you do with the airport conveyor belt between the bar and your front-door after you finish this challenge?
