Fans of the Chicago Cubs and Milwaukee Brewers converged on Miller Park today not to watch their wretched baseball teams, but to finally determine which franchise has Major League Baseball’s drunkest supporters. Decades of misery and generations of alcoholism have led Cubs and Brewers fans to unbridled binge drinking, especially when baseball is involved.
With Bud Selig and members of Stats, Inc. present, the beer-swilling began a full 8 hours before game time. Stats, Inc. compiled the following Tale of the Tape to officially determine whether Cubs or Brewers fans are the biggest booze hounds.
Reasons For Drinking — Cubs Fans
–Over 100 years without a championship is enough to make anyone not want to face reality.
–Because their team plays so many day games, they are used to being completely plastered by 2 PM.
Reasons For Drinking — Brewers Fans
–Wisconsin law dictates that anyone over the age of 13 must drink at least 12 beers per day.
–Their team is called the Brewers, duh.
