Arrested Man: 48 Beers Was About 10 Too Many
WTSP ^ | Jun 17, 2011

A man told Pasco County Sheriff's deputies he had about 10 beers too many as he celebrated his birthday.

Fifty-eight-year-old James Taylor says he drank 48 beers on Thursday evening, prompting a stern lecture from a deputy for causing a disturbance at Hudson Beach.

Officials say Taylor, a transient, left the beach. But he came back, and officials say this time he caused such a ruckus that he scared a woman and her young grandchildren.

An arrest report states that Taylor exposed his genitals and "urinated in the middle of the sand."

He also continued to shout profanities.

A deputy returned to the beach, arrested Taylor and took him to the Land O'Lakes jail. He is charged with disorderly intoxication in a public place and causing a disturbance.

Was he drinking O’Douls?

Seriously, I’ve heard of hard drinking guys polishing a case, but two cases? Damn.

I'm 58, and I have no earthly idea how that guy got that many beers down his gullet in one evening. I'd be more than good after four, and ready for a serious nap after eight.

In my 20s I could knock back 18-24 cans of beer during an entire Saturday. Sure, I'd be pretty damn drunk by the time I passed out but it was doable. I'd wake up the next morning with barely a dry mouth.

Now, two decades later, I'm too buzzed to drive after a single can of beer, stupid drunk after three cans and any more than that and I'll be sick as a dog for the entire next day. Hard liquor? I won't even consider it.

In the wisdom of Hank Jr., hangovers hurt more than they used to. This is the absolute truth.

You know, I’m old enough to remember when the society recognized winos and other misfits for what they were. And you’re right about their ability to imbibe. I’ve known a few who had ridiculous tolerance levels for alcohol.
