When I first heard about the “World Series of Beer Pong” I thought to myself “Sweet!! I should drive to Vegas right now!” But then it occurred to me that I really suck at beer pong. I just use it as an excuse to get really drunk at parties. And what a great excuse it is.

The 40cozy team has a special bond with Beer Pong. Its a little known fact that a 40 fills up one team’s cups perfectly and playing with Mickey’s or Colt45 definitely ups the stakes a bit. Anyway, check out the site and the contestants. Maybe next year you’ll be competing.

We all know the old fashioned method used by many malt liquor drinkers to keep their hands relatively dry: the brown paper bag.Hell, we even used to use them before we were sent a vision from above to create the 40Cozy. While some believe this adds some mystique to your malt liquor swilling, most agree it just makes you look like the guy who lives behind the 7-11 (who is a good guy, don’t get me wrong). I’m not sure how the laws work, but someone convinced me at a young age that concealing your alcoholic beverage in such a fashion makes it so you can drink it on the street. I can’t imagine a cop merrily strolling by someone sipping from a 40 shaped brown bag, convinced it is anything other than booze.We’ve made a pretty good start this year at providing America’s drinkers with our 40Cozies this year, but we’re still new on the block. Our huge sales spike around the holidays tells me that many a stocking was stuffed with a 40Cozy, but apparently Santa didn’t get the memo: Oh well, maybe next year. I think the big guy will definitely switch over to a 40Cozy when he checks out our designs and realizes the functionality of the handle. And who can argue when your hands are warm and dry and your beverage is still nice and cold?

As we all prepare for New Year’s, I’d like to share with you a great article on CNN retelling some of history’s greatest drinking stories. Consider it inspiration for tomorrow evening. My favorite one discusses the ongoing battle of an Indian army outpost that constantly has to deal with a herd of elephants raiding their base and drinking their rum. Plastered pachyderms are much funnier in theory, I’d imagine.

According to the Guiness Book of World Records, Steven Petrosino is the Beer Chugging World Champion. On June 22, 1977 he drank 1 liter of beer in 1.3 seconds at the Gingerbreadman in Carlise, PA.

Check him out 26 years later, showing how he can still throw’em back:

Being a business major, I for some reason had to take 2 statistics classes and 3 accounting classes- not sure why, since I haven’t used that stuff once since being on the outside. That stuff is for squares as far as I’m concerned.

There was this kid that always ended up in my biz classes. He’s the typical wanksta white kid with his ears tucked into his hat (stickers still proudly left on), wearing a Sean John jumpsuit and Timberland boots. You know that guy. The one with a single ipod earpiece in during class, so that you can hear 50cent or some other top 40 hip-hop blaring out the other. Yeah, well I used to clown this guy until the first midterm got handed back. Apparently, this cat is a mathematical genius. The point of this nonsensical story is twofold:

First, don’t judge a toolbag by his cover, because he might be a great kid to sit behind for exams. Secondly, I wanted to bring to your attention a bad ass website that must have been created by the aforementioned douche.

The site provides mathematical charts and graphs to represent rap songs. Here are some good samples:

Solid site, I’m going to pour some out for that kid from stats class- never should have underestimated him.
