As some of you know, my beloved Carolina Hurricanes - after blowing a 3-1 series lead - will play the decisive Game 7 of their Eastern Conference semifinal tonight in Boston, against the top seeded Bruins, who will now be undoubtedly favored to defend their home ice and eliminate my Canes. Needless to say, it's gonna be a stressful night...

And I have no alcohol at the house. Thus, I have a conundrum.

Help Mikey decide what he should go buy to help enjoy (or numb the pain from) tonight's huge hockey game.

[Fire-Babe]

Other - Jameson's or Tullamore Dew. And GO CANES!

[The Canadian Content]

Dude, you'd never make it as a Canadian. One "beer" on the list and it's Light? Man up and get yourself some imported Canadian beer.

[Mikey]

The one time I tried Molson it tasted like moose piss. Labatt's, on the other hand, is pretty good. For beer anyway - which I'm not a huge fan of in the first place.

Bud Light's on the list because it's cheap and I don't have to search up and down a half dozen stores to see if they carry it. I'll look tonight though.

[Pun]

I don't even want to know why you know what Moose's piss tastes like. Maybe that's something you and Solly need to talk about?

[The Jewish Cunthead]

It's an acquired taste.

You should put a pic of Staal over this guy's face and pray like hell he does something tonight.

[punk/core]

Hard Lemonade? That's a girl drink.

I know... but it's good.

Sweet Jesus - you like that too? Now I don't feel like a giant pussy.

MTA: If the Absolut is for every Boston goal, you could be passed out 10 minutes in if Ward repeats his performance from Games 5 and 6.

That's one I can blame on the ex-wife. And one of really only two things I carried over from that relationship. (That, and ham and bean soup.) Yeah, it's way lame, but they're at least trying to branch their market out now via their silly commercials, so maybe we're ahead of the curve.

Or goes all Brodeur in the final 90 seconds, yes?

[salmonjunkie]

all of the above. you need the bud light as your chaser

[Deadly]

Absolut? You should rock the Hangar One.

[Byrntrigan]

When I do shots I'm a fan of Rumplemintz.

Also, one of the guys I used to manage got me into Malibu and Cokes.

That is quite tasty. And Hard lemonade and other Hard "drinks" are generally quite tasty. Not like that Smhrinoff (sp) asswater.

[Mikey]

OOH! I haven't had a Malibu and Coke in awhile, and you are correct - those are fantastic.

[Angle]

Can't go wrong with the Jameson's

[Tommy]

Bud Light, Mike. Not only are you going to be drinking a lot, I fear, but you have to drink for me too.

At least he can cover his 5-hole.

I was thinking the same thing. Add everything in a blender with a little ice. Drink fast. Chase with the BL.

Or for a more affordable way that you would enjoy, go with what you know.

[Jack Quinn]

if you are going to go with Bud Light, get the Bud Light with Lime, that shit is good, I don't give a shit what anyone says.



And Mike's Hard Lemonade is not bad either.

Agreed. I like the Cranberry flavor.

[Lucky]

You drink beer with sports. Not only is it the proper social drink for the occasion but its also the right amount of alcohol for 3 hours of drinking complete with the ability to chug if the situation calls for it.

[Habs]

So Bud Light is not an option.

Go with Burt Reynolds i.e spiced rhum and butterscotch schnapps (just a splash). Chase that with something better then bud light (please)

[Lucky]

Bud Light is perfectly acceptable sports beer. It goes down easy, you can drink it for hours without getting wasted or full, you can get a proper buzz on if you want, the taste is unoffensive if not exciting, its nice and affordable. Bud Light is a working man's beer for the game.

Beer snob.

Round these parts, we call those Bitch Pops.

[Mikey]

Byrnie namedropped the Malibu and that's what I ultimately went with. Byrne, I now have a new lucky drink! The bottle has been drained.
