My uncle worked for the Tuscaloosa-based airline that Bryant used to fly to and from places. He had to help him off the plane more than once due to how intoxicated the Bear was.

Dye would drink the Buhr under the table.

The two were actually drinking buddies, especially during hunting season ...
Obviously this was during the era when there wasn't a rat-bastage sportswriter narc waiting to tweet every negative they could find on anyone ...
My father hunted with both men on more than one occasion. Dye preferred to do his drinking around the fire, while Bryant liked to take a bottle with him to the stand.
I would imagine that both men enjoyed the opportunity to temporarily forget the pressures of the day ... cheers!
