The Eigth Wonder of the World 'Andre The Giant'... jobbed to Hulk Hogan in Wrestlemania III (That sucked!!!) :x
Truly a legend of the squared circle if ever there was one!
I recently watched the DVD released by WWE to celebrate the French Behemoth's career...
King of the 'Battle Royal' the man was a freak!
Those with Foxtel, check out his biography on the odd occasions when it turns up on the History Channel,
well worth a look, it delves into his alcoholic intake prowess in great detail!
But like that other famous Frog 'Eric Cantona' (who used to drink wine at half time in Man U. games)
to quote the angry Red Devil striker "I'm French therefore I drink wine!"

Speaking of legendary drinkers & getting closer to home...
Former P.M. Bob Hawke held the World record for necking a yard glass!

Ronald Belford 'Bon' Scott though he was pissed at the time of his untimely death in 1980.
The coroner's report says he passed away due to Hypothermia.
Over in London, Scott got shitfaced on the turps & then passed out in his car...
The cold British climate is what wiped him out, but the grog would've contributed to it!
Choking on his chunder's just an urban myth!
Bon Scott R.I.P. :cry:
