Anti-Freeze and Beer

2006 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

Ok, so I don't know if you can actually put this on your site, but nonetheless, this story HAS to be repeated. I am taking a shot, because in my opinion, this is literally the stupidest thing I have ever heard in my entire life.

(Texas Tech University - Lubbock, TX) So, the stage is set at the fraternity Sigma Alpha Epsilon's Annual Chili Cook Off. As it is with most Greek organizations in college, they love to drink and be drunk. So some group of guys decided that it would be a good idea to mix one part ANTI-FREEZE to one part beer, because they believed that it would get you drunk faster and keep you drunk longer. There are no ideas on HOW THE HELL they thought this would work, because most people past the age of about 10 know that you shouldn't DRINK anti-freeze, because it will KILL you.

So, they served this beverage to people at the cook off, and consumed some themselves, and then people (non-surprisingly) began to fall to the ground in convulsions. When those that WERE NOT aware that they had consumed anti-freeze arrived at the emergency room, the only way they found out was when they had a blood test done, and the doc came in and said, "Well, we figured out what's wrong. We found anti-freeze IN YOUR BLOOD."

I mean, wow. How stupid do you have to be to consume anti-freeze as a means of getting drunk?

I doubt the veracity of this. There IS an alcoholic beverage called "antifreeze" consisting of, among other things, vodka and blue curacao (which might taste nasty in beer but would do the job), but it is FAR different than automotive antifreeze. The methanol or ethyl glycol is generally fatal, and if such an incident occurred, it would have made the headlines (nothing found on the internet). Even if it IS true, you couldn't mix beer and AF in equal parts. What say my fellow mods?

I agree with James


Sheryl said:
Definitely Toss: Bystanders Hurt
I also agree with James - also some of those people didn't know what they were drinking.
