5280: Hotter Than July

Drunk as hell but no throwin up
Half way home and my pager still blowin up...

As week Numero Ocho descended on the Slushy Gutter Summer Mission, the crew rallied a bit but not quite enough to get back on the positive side of the ledger. It might have been the 100 degree heat? The mid-summer blues? The cries of the liver?

Needless to say, two time Slushy Gutter Winner Juck was the anomaly of the posse, as he posted 73 beers over the stanza. Among those were a steady diet of Blue Moons and an 18 pack of smooooooooth CLs over one long night. Broz continued his ascent up the ladder, as he downed the pace number of 37. Although his week was sullied by a trip to Fox and Hound, where he railed through some ice cold Tecates but had to endure the short bus collection of imbeciles known as the F&H waitstaff. The Commish didn't fare all too well over the week, as he hit the 25 mark; a few CLs, a couple Tecates, and even managed to sneak in a Lefthand Pilsner on a trip to Nederland.

The Goat faction of the SG Crew: Current Slushy Gutter Winner Jeez Steve, former two time Slushy Gutter Winner TDub, former Slushy Gutter Winner Pickles, and Slick Rip conquered the oppressive heat and a host of flag football teams over the weekend. They also managed around a 30 beer average, the equivalent of a 10 yard gain in the SG Summer.

Trav took one for the team, downing 11 Milwaukee's Best on Friday so he'd "have some numbers for the week." The "Beast" number 12 still sits idly in the fridge. The week's big winner though is JBiz, who managed to drink a paltry 23 beers. More importantly he, along with Mrs Biz, welcomed a beautiful baby girl into the world. Ahhh, how proud she'll be at her wedding when old DadBiz tells the tale of the Summer of 2007 when he swilled 528 beers. Slushy Gutter, indeed. (2882)
