Columbia SC: Famously Crunk

drunk

By FITSNews || Columbia, S.C. is “crunk,” people.

That’s “crazy drunk,” by the way.

In fact according to Men’s Health magazine, Columbia ranks No. 13 in the nation on its upcoming survey of “America’s Drunkest Cities” – and is one of thirteen cities receiving an “F” grade.

Other “crunk” cities?

Fresno, Reno (where Johnny Cash once shot a man “just to watch him die”), Billings, Austin and St. Louis, which of course is home of Anheuser-Busch.

The rankings – which will be released in the magazine’s March edition – are based on a number of factors, like deaths from liver disease and frequency of DUI arrests, for example.  They are also consistent with state data showing an abnormally high percentage of alcohol-related traffic fatalities in South Carolina.

    So, 5 Points is one of America’s drunkest intersections? During St. Patrick’s Day I would rate it in the top three!

    If your First Lady is on 20/20 talking about her odd life with your Governor and the leader to replace is the human form of Foghorn Leghorn, well, you gotta drink.
