Reblogging this: 1.) Cuz it’s rad. 2.) I received a message from ek-ans (adult oriented blog) that was pretty interesting and I wanted to share it with you. Love hearing your stories! Especially when they relate directly to a fact ٩(^‿^)۶
“Andre the giant went into my pop’s bar. Said shaking the man’s hand was crazy because it was like a bear claw. Also said they chopped it up, and he is a nice guy. He used to make money with a lady bartender in France from out-drinking people so much.”
Dude, are you serious? That’s wicked cool. Do you mind if I share this?
“Of course! Andre said there was a Lady Bar*owner? in France who would invite men for a drinking contest for money. She knew Andre, and they would win every time. My dad is at the Sacramento Hyatt. London Hyatt said he drank $40,000.”
That’s insane. I mean if you walked into a bar prepared to outdrink someone and you saw Andre, would you not just take a bow and walk away right then and there?
“No kidding, I’d be like no way! But, I think they ran it sort of as a scam and would have people hold their word. I doubt it happened a lot, I’m sure townsfolk would talk too.”
No different than WWF, right? A nice, fake fight for making $$$ cash moneys. But with beer.
