Wisconsin Man Drinks Seven Bottles of Alcohol in 15 Minutes at Wal-Mart

by Jennifer Hoffman

We’re no Florida, but we certainly get our share of weird news originating from this State.

A Town of Eagle man went on a binge at the Mukwanago Wal-Mart, drinking seven bottles of Jack Daniel’s Lynchburg Lemonade straight from the shelves in a span of about fifteen minutes. Although he initially denied the retail theft, Wal-Mart security cameras caught him on tape and he confessed. He later told police that he was a recovering alcoholic, and his actions that day broke a sixteen month dry spell. GMToday has the full story.

Seven drinks in fifteen minutes seems like an awful lot, but I’m a bit of an amateur when it comes to drinking. And who hasn’t wanted to crack open a cold one (or seven?) in Wal-Mart? I suspect it would greatly improve the overall shopping experience.

About Milwaukee, WI

Forget what you learned from those Laverne & Shirley reruns. Long gone is the factory town that unleashed Harley Davidson and Pabst Blue Ribbon upon the world. In its place, you'll find one of the most exciting metropolises between the coasts. The motorcycles and beer are still around, but Milwaukee also has a cutting edge art scene, festivals for every occasion, a palette of architectural curiosities, a thriving night life, and some of the most driven and diverse people in the midwest. In Milwaukee, boredom isn't even an option.
