Drunk Minnesotan of the Day

Re: Drunk Minnesotan of the Day

Not drunk, but Minnesota.

This is the only time I have ever heard Mankato mentioned in a non-hockey context.

Mankato made national news a couple years ago when Phillip Nelson, the Gopher's QB, was home and got into a fight with the QB for Mankato State. He put the MSU kid into the hospital and ended up facing charges over it. The story made it onto both Fox News' and CNN's websites.

Your move, Minnesota. Maryland may come to the party late, but when we come, we come.

Tymann became agitated after an officer repeatedly asked him to leave the party. The fourth-year student is the President of Pi Kappa Alpha, an off-campus fraternity located at 5906 Walhonding Road.

The house is leased to 22-year-old Tyler Steinhardt. He now faces 110 counts of providing alcohol to minors.

When officers pulled up in front of the house, they saw two young men carrying an intoxicated 18-year-old woman to an Uber car. She was taken to the hospital to be treated for alcohol poisoning.

Sources told WUSA the inside of the house was trashed during the party, with beer seeping through the ceiling into the basement.

Police discovered 200 partygoers just on the first floor. Another 50 to 75 people were huddled in the garage.

Underage drinkers hid in closets, under beds and anywhere they could find when officers moved in, police said.

The house was so packed, investigators estimated the air temperature to be 100 degrees.

Alcohol was so abundant, a preliminary breath test registered .09, just in the ambient air. That’s above the legal level of intoxication for a Maryland driver.

The young lady on the bus next to me this past Friday created much the same effect. She either went at it hard Thursday night or started early Friday morning. Regardless, she was able to walk off the bus to her office building without detectable wobble in her gait. And, as expected in downtown Minneapolis, the drunken, pretty young thing, was headed into Target's corporate offices.

Well, back in the day, a certain poster I know woke up with a .16 (IIRC) and I woke up with a .22 (and yes, I then learned a lesson). No, didn't get busted by law. Had a breathalyzer, and a control subject to test the accuracy.
 
Re: Drunk Minnesotan of the Day

What was the control subject? A sober person? Because even the world's ****tiest scale is going to read 0 when there's nothing on it.

A very sober person. In fact, it was Painted Bandit (currently BIL of bbdl, although that was definitely not the case at the time). The breathalyzer we used has been true over time at other events. That was the "debut" weekend.
 
Re: Drunk Minnesotan of the Day

There's no way to test accuracy without readings above zero. You can tare it out but the slope could still be massively ****ed. You'd need a calibrated test to confirm the accuracy of a breathalyzer.

Over the years, after that weekend, and gained knowledge of ABV affecting BAC...we've come close, if not dead on, to the readings (compared to those stupid charts about weight/BAC you get in college), when asked to take a guess, before blowing into the breathalyzer.

There might be a slight variance, of course, but in general, this is (was? Dunno if it's still around) a good breathalyzer.

The scientist and analytical chemist in me says, "no, instruments do not work that way."
