Oh, wait...
December 31st, 2012 at 9:58 PM ^
Lots and lots of fluids! Water, grape juice, apple cider, gatorade... fighting away the flu isn't exactly how I imagined spending my NYE.
December 31st, 2012 at 10:10 PM ^
Hang in there. I'm in the same boat. A Michigan win tomorrow would be soothing medicine.
December 31st, 2012 at 10:00 PM ^
Yappy Hew Near!

Not to be a pre-Madonna, but about time someone starts this thread! Drinking Tezon tequila, and for all intensive purposes, getting hammered. Happy New Year all, go blue Mañana!
December 31st, 2012 at 10:52 PM ^
but I am drinking beer until live football is over for the night and then switching over to cognac to ring in the new year with the ghost of Dick Clark
December 31st, 2012 at 11:04 PM ^
I was born in '65.
December 31st, 2012 at 10:08 PM ^
I have the Peach Bowl (using Seth-approved name) and some Strongbow cider at the moment. I made beef enchiladas for dinner - slow cooked the beef in salsa verde, fresh chopped cilantro and diced onion, with a smattering of diced serrano peppers. Turned out nicely, I might add.
December 31st, 2012 at 10:09 PM ^
after the girlfriends friends (we're in her hometown right now) said they'd be house party hopping in downtown Cincinnati, which I currently can't participate in due to a fucked up knee. Turns out her dad had the perfect materials for a BP table downstairs, so we're going to play some pong with her little brother and enjoy premium satellite on their very big TV. Not all that shabby, even if it is way more lame than being at UC tonight.
We're drinking champagne all night, with a few Yuengling's mixed in.
December 31st, 2012 at 10:25 PM ^
How big?
December 31st, 2012 at 10:39 PM ^
I think 60; maybe only 55 but I have a 43 and it's substantially bigger.
Also, that sounded every bit as dirty in my head as I'm sure it did in yours.
December 31st, 2012 at 10:44 PM ^
Sometimes you have to throw out a softball.
December 31st, 2012 at 11:47 PM ^
Oh justin, you say the funniest things sometimes <swoons>
January 1st, 2013 at 12:07 AM ^
I also swoon over your about 99% of your internet musings.

NOTHING CAN RUIN MY GOOD MOOD FOR THE NEXT 11 HOURS BEFORE KICKOFF WEEEEE
December 31st, 2012 at 10:10 PM ^
and Coke Zero.
December 31st, 2012 at 11:47 PM ^
Champagne from Costco. Get like me!
December 31st, 2012 at 10:13 PM ^
The first NYE I've spent at home since I was 17, and if feels STRANGE. The Mrs. got me a case of Miller High Life while she was out, and I'm going to have those in between shots of Crown. Happy New Year to all, and Go Blue, beat the Cocks!
December 31st, 2012 at 10:31 PM ^
Living the High Life tonight...

Bam Biere. Best. Brewery. Ever.
December 31st, 2012 at 10:34 PM ^
And am drinking my west coast IPA (Stone, enjoy by 12-21-12) out of a Jolly Pumpkin glass.
Switching to Cabernet, and making my famous "kid-mosas" for my kids, who talked me into staying up to the "real" midnight. We are on the west coast, and I like to celebrate midnight at 9 because I'm old.
December 31st, 2012 at 10:37 PM ^
It's my go-to any time I'm in California.
Jolly Pumpkin distribution is so spotty in Chicago that every time I see some in a Binny's I buy like 5 bottles because I'm never sure if it'll be there the next time. Any bar that has Jolly Pumpkin on tap immediately goes into my pantheon.
December 31st, 2012 at 11:13 PM ^
That Stone is typically meh for me. Except their special brews, and this was a good one. Lots of really good beer out here..to much good beet available to drink bad beer.
December 31st, 2012 at 11:16 PM ^
Is yummy too! I can find bottles out here and I'm more of an IPA fan, but I love that Ann Arbor connection. Enjoy!
December 31st, 2012 at 11:25 PM ^
Have now switched to Bell's Two Hearted, which I purchased at a 7-11. Yes, the 7-11s in Chicago carry Two-Hearted. Jakovsmirnoffwhatacountry.jpg.

White Russians. Just dudeing it up.

The Dude abides.

Red Label in Pepsi. Yes, I'm a high roller
December 31st, 2012 at 10:20 PM ^
Well I have had a lot of bus light, absolute, and wine so far. My makers mark is calling my name now. I probably won't remember this post in the morning.
December 31st, 2012 at 10:21 PM ^
Brought some local love back home to Pitt.. Dark Horse and Founders.. Finish off with a hopslam!
December 31st, 2012 at 10:24 PM ^
Hopslam I presume? Release not until Jan 8 per Bells website.
December 31st, 2012 at 10:51 PM ^
I have been holding onto this until tonight. Btw, its even better then the last one i had at thanksgiving.
January 1st, 2013 at 12:28 AM ^
than I. The last of mine did not survive past September, and I started with 4 cases. It was good aged, but I prefer it fresh. The hops faded and the malt took over a bit too much for me.
December 31st, 2012 at 10:21 PM ^
bunch of osu fans w/ miller lite
December 31st, 2012 at 10:23 PM ^
Which is worse.
December 31st, 2012 at 10:30 PM ^
At least it's not king cobra or natural ice
December 31st, 2012 at 10:32 PM ^
Milwaukee's Best Special Reserve. Or as my drunkass roommate called it, "Mikwaukee's Best Speed Racer."
December 31st, 2012 at 10:37 PM ^
My good man
December 31st, 2012 at 11:35 PM ^
That is a 3DO game isn't it?
December 31st, 2012 at 10:31 PM ^
fans are worse.
December 31st, 2012 at 10:39 PM ^
The fans are worse because you can likely tolerate that beer. Anyone over 40, hanging with 40+ aged Ohio fans would probably think the fans are more tolerable than that beer. 30-40 year olds....it would be a toss up.
December 31st, 2012 at 10:41 PM ^
the Miller Lite is worse.
December 31st, 2012 at 11:10 PM ^
I'm glad i was wrong..
December 31st, 2012 at 10:22 PM ^
About to try a Red Stripe. HOORAY BEER!!!
December 31st, 2012 at 10:23 PM ^
Wolverine Premium Lager. With some sparkling cider in-between.
And still pissed I'm not in Tampa right now.
December 31st, 2012 at 10:27 PM ^
Gentleman's Jack and some genny cream ale
December 31st, 2012 at 10:28 PM ^
Decaf and baily's. So good.
December 31st, 2012 at 10:28 PM ^
Blows... Just opened a 2008 bottle of Gamba wine ( it's a Zinfandel from Sonoma County) my wife is 8 months prego with our 2nd and I'm watching Hook the movie from 1991. Ya pretty sweet night especially since I'm only 32 and pretty use to going out but I guess that won't happen til 2014! Go Blue beat the old ball coach
