Here are some liver blowing statistics about the notorious 7 foot 5, 500 pound wrestler/pile of shit:
Andre the Giant drank 7,000 calories worth of booze every day
According to Hulk Hogan, Andre drank, at a minimum, a case of tall boys during each bus ride. When he finished a can Andre would belch, crush the can in his dinner-platter-sized hand, and bounce the empty off the back of Hogan’s head.
Andre the Giant holds the world record for the largest number of beers consumed in a single sitting. These were standard 12-ounce bottles of beer, during a six-hour period. Andre drank 119 beers in six hours. That’s a beer every three minutes, non stop.
On another occasion, Andre was touring the Kansas City territory and went out for drinks after a show with Bobby Heenan and several other wrestlers. When the bartender hollered last call, Andre, slightly annoyed, announced that he didn’t care to leave. Rather than risk an altercation with his hulking customer, the bartender told Andre he could stay only if he was drinking, imagining, surely, that he would soon be rid of the big fella. Andre thanked the man, and proceeded to order 40 vodka tonics. He sat there drinking them, one after another, finishing the last at just after five in the morning.
As you can see, it's not easy to be a complete piece of shit, but Andre the Giant was determined, committed and belligerent with an unquenchable thirst. He achieved his goals and he wasn't a little bitch about it, setting several world drinking records in the process. Some say he had a terrible drinking "problem," but I disagree, it was a drinking solution. As you can see, this oversized goofy bastard solved alot of drinking issues in his lifetime. Our hats go off to you Andre, Rest in Peace.
