    After hearing many peoples stories of Paddy's Day, I was shocked to hear how many people got absolutley skull ****ed. Pretty much every single one of them blacked out at some point or didn't remember how they got home. I'm obviously aware of the fact that Paddys Day is just a day for drinking, but it really seemed like this year was beyond a joke. I myself remembered nothing past 5 o clock and ended up at home by 11 with no idea where I was. Another friend of mine got arrested for just being so drunk. I'm interested to see how other people around the country faired on Tuesday.

    I was buzzed but my friend threw up 3 times in Croker and fell asleep during the two club finals. He was a noob to alcohol :pac:

    public poll huh?

    Ah no, Paddy's day is over. Even the Metrald has (probably) moved on from the horror stories at this stage.

    Started at 12, lasted til 11.30 and managed to walk home. That said, when I went out for a smoke about quarter to eleven (was starting to sober up at that point) I was genuinely suprised to discover it was dark. In my head it had been about 20 minutes since I was last outside and it was bright. And that must have been at about 6 :D

    I had a few cans watching Arsenal v Hull then a few more while on here bitching about Phil "what a cock" Brown.

    No more than any other match day really.

    Had 2 bottles of wine here throughout the day ,possibly got mildly tipsy for a while.

    I went for a game of golf paddy's morn and took my oh to the cinema in the evening, wow im exciting, still though had a nice day. Spending the day on the lash cause its paddy's is a bit cliched imo, a random all day session works out the best.

    Wow I'm actually shocked by the poll so far. I was expecting a lot drunker tbh. Maybe its just everyone in my extended circle of friends are just a disgrace. Although I heard the entirety of Tralee was like a jungle. Any people from Tralee here?

    Went "Knacker Drinkin" for old times sake with a couple of mates. Just a spur of the moment thing. Drank half to 3/4 of a bottle of Southern Comfort. Walked home, and remembered most of it. My memory is bad anyways, so its ok.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,391 ✭✭✭Captain-America


    Got a bit tipsy but nothing over the top. Decided it'd be a great idea to go drinking in town. Evidently, it was. Had a good laugh.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,208 ✭✭✭✭aidan_walsh


    1 drink on the evening.


  • Registered Users Posts: 787 ✭✭✭yellowcurl


    Didn't drink because i had a huge meeting the following morning. Knew i'd be convinced into drinking into oblivion so stayed away. Had some nice non-alcoholic wine tho!! :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,160 ✭✭✭✭banshee_bones


    I had one bottle of miller


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,568 ✭✭✭✭Frisbee


    Was in work 2-10 and then in again at 8 the next morning, so no drinking

    Poll no longer public in the interest of those of us who got hammered.

    Sober as a judge, blame medication and studying.

    I was running a bar on Paddies day. Expected to finish at 8pm, but we were so crazy busy I didn't finish until 5am. Started work at 11:30am, long bloody day. I spent the last few hour of the night kicking out drunk people.

    My turn to get wasted was the day after :)

  • Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 23,221 Mod ✭✭✭✭GLaDOS


    Quite a bit :D Remember everything and no disgracful behaviour so it's all good :)

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Only consumed 8 cans of dutch, but in fairness the night before it I had well over 12 cans I'd say and had been drinking on the trot a few days in a row, Wednesday morning woke up, zero hangover, no issiues, went to college, felt fairly crappy, went home after a half an hour and got sick :o , Suppose though, its the tradition :pac::pac:

  • Registered Users Posts: 5,563 ✭✭✭connundrum


    I flitted between pints of Erdinger and Mojitos, which turned out to be quite a sexy mix.

    We were out from about 12.30 till 9 or so. Didn't think I was too bad tbh.

    Small bit of a headache and dry mouth the next morning :o

    I may or may not have soiled myself at some point

    I got through 23 cans over the whole day and ended up passing out in a ditch. Got up for work the next morning, drank some dehydrating gravy and lyle's golden syrup mixed with sand and ate some jacob's cream crackers and got no hangover.

    23 cans?!
    The reason you've got no hangover is you're probably still drunk :P

    Epic amount.

    Dont worry, I'm only messing! I assumed the ridiculous things i mentioned consuming after my nights boozing would have led you to that conclusion!!

    I had 13 cans though!!

    Not a drop. Spent most of the day 'fixing' the old Ford Fiesta my sister passed on to me. Turns out that spanners are not all that useful to turn a bolt hidden behind the alternator drive belt, even after an hour or so of lying beneath the (unraised) car angrily slapping the spanner about and shouting.
    I hope the socket spanner set I ebayed that evening arrives today...

    Of course, the Gravy Creme avec le Syrup de Gaineamh, the standard hangover cure. :pac:
