Friends Don't Let Friends Donate To Charity, Sober



I am very proud, and yet somewhat frightened, to announc
e:

The 1st Annual ANDREW & THE PRETTY PUNCHERS 1/2 Yard Beer Drinking Contest For Charity!

The show will be at South Park Tavern on Saturday, December 13th @10:00.

The excellent Dayton band Hospital Garden will open.

ANDREW AND THE PRETTY PUNCHERS will probably play at about 11:00
.


The beer drinking contest, open to anyone, but thankfully very much optional, will be judged on speed of consumption. Specifically, how long it takes each contestant to throw back a 1/2 yard of beer. A half-yard of beer is an 18 inch high glass that contains 32 ounces of "momma's milk" (i. e. beer).

The current record holder at the South Park Tavern is "Rocker," a good friend of the band and all round nice guy. Rocker drank a 1/2 yard of beer in 6 seconds flat. Ever since then chicks can't keep their hands off of him, and being a pipe fitter by trade, this seems to have worked out to everyone's general satisfaction.



The $2.00 cover charge and the beer drinking contest proceeds (uh . . . money, that is) will go to the St. Vincent de Paul charity.

See you on the 13th!
