Title: 41 MPG!
Post by: pandy on August 06, 2007, 05:53:43 PM
Stunning Discovery

A 2006 study by Texas A&M University found that the average American walks about 900 miles per year.

Another study by the American Beer Institute found that Americans drink an average of 22 gallons of beer a year.

This means, on average, Americans get approximately 41 miles per gallon.

Not bad!!!!!

The phrase:

"Your mileage may vary"

comes to mind.

Me thinks that the 22 gallon beer drinker is sitting down tipping a cold one more than the average walking American.   :)

22 gallons=2,816 onces
2,816 oz=234.666  12oz bottles
That's less than a beer a day..........LIGHTWEIGHT!

Yeah I'm surprised as well, I didn't think I'd ever be able to refer to a GSTwinner as above average. :laugh:

My problem is I like to ride too much. And having had a DUI in the past I don't care to repeat that experience. Drinking beer at home is really not any fun so I probably make up for the excessive consumption of the rest of you lush's. I probably had 60 beers all total last year.

The only trouble with that, is that you're about 10 times more likely to commit a felony after drinking tequila than beer. That is why it's called felony juice.  :laugh:
