Post by: Joe442 on July 08, 2008, 11:58:05 AM: LOL....I feel compelled to weigh in on the "cider" or "scrumpy" as MB calls it. Last year while tailgating at the ND-Michigan State game, a buddy who is a regular at our tailgate produced a milk jug of "cider" and said..."try a glass of this!" Now I had consumed about 7-8 beers at this point which is a pretty normal intake and was a bit S&*! faced so I tried it! Went down smooth, it looked like cider...smelled like cider....tasted like cider....but about 10 minutes after downing that glass I was FUBAR!! BIG TIME!! Never did make it into the game that day...sat in a lawn chair and tried my best to keep the parking lot from spinning and I needed assistance getting home! Haven't been that gassed in awhile and I swear to this day that that "cider" was the culprit!
