Drunkest City in Each State

1. Alabama
> Drunkest city: Auburn-Opelika
> Pct of MSA adults binge or heavy drinking: 17.8%
> Pct. of state adults binge or heavy drinking: 12.2%
> Pct of driving deaths alcohol related: 26.1%

Nearly 18% of adults in the Auburn-Opelika metro area report heavy drinking or binge drinking — defined as more than five drinks for men and four drinks for women on a single occasion — in the past 30 days, according to the CDC. This is the highest proportion compared with the other 10 metro areas in Alabama, where 12.2% of adults report such heavy drinking habits. More than 26% of all driving deaths in the Auburn area are associated with alcohol consumption. Unlike most of the metro areas on this list, this percentage was actually lower than the national proportion of 31%.

If you lived in Opelika, wouldn't you drink heavily too?

And what's worse, the next morning they drink coffee in plain red cups and don't even wish each other Merry Christmas.

Sinners.

It usually happens when the ball and arse licking leghumpers are coming to town. It's the best way to overcome the shitty smell of their UGA breath.


Other than that sorry for partying

I know statistics are hard, but I'd imagine that is a product of a large percentage of the town being college students relative to other adults verses other cities like Tuscaloosa and Birmingham.

that was a eye bugger outter for me but then i clicked the link and it's not really that high compared to some other ones i saw.

hot springs was our city- and holy hell 40.8% driving deaths are alcohol related. granted, it's our closest thing to nola so there is more partying and drinking and craziness there but dang that just shocks me it's that high.

I just was under the impression that social life at Auburn consisted of Young Life camping trips and Tuesday night bible study potlucks.
