But you don't drink water like beer.

[lafinfil]

It used to be customary in the early days of baseball for players to drink heavily before the games.
I'm sure you've heard the stories about Babe Ruth. He used to go drinking with a lesser know pitcher
by the name of Mel Famey. Mel like to have a few snorts in the bullpen during the warm up.

Mel was a pretty good pitcher when he was sober, but not as good when a little snockered.
Once Mel had a really bad game (they lost) where he couldn't get anything across the plate
and managed to let the opposing team walk in more runs then they hit.

At the end of the game he was walking off the field and pulled a beer bottle out of his back pocket.
When the opposing teams manager saw it he couldn't believe his eyes.
He turned to his assistant and said "what the hell is that?"

His assistant said .......




"That's the beer that made Mel Famey walk us"
