The British, Alcohol and Rugby. The Connection
Created | Updated Apr 20, 2002
The British drink the most alcohol than any other race on the planet. Also we play some of the hardest games on the planet. Rugby, for example...
A game where essentially, you chase the man (or woman) who is carrying the inflated pig bladder. You chase him and he tries to run away and get the bladder across the line at the end of the pitch between a big H.
The Americans took this game, put on 30-35 lbs. of protection and called it "American Football". However, in England, we play it with nothing harder than a sheet of cotton between you and a football stud through the chest! They usually play this game before or after consuming large quantities of the afore mentioned alcohol.
So there you have it, The British, Alcohol and rugby (any sport in fact) are usually connected!
