I lived in Galway, Ireland last summer... I think it should top the list. Drinking in Ireland is nuts... Needless to say, I loved it!
Cities ranked by drunkest!

Help Support Homebrew Talk:
The study should be described as the cities most unable to handle intoxication.
The northern states fair much better, it seems...list makers seem to be p*****....
Don't try this at home- we are seasoned experts!

To clarify:
The list is made up of the DANGEROUSLY drunk cities. These are the places you are most likely to do harm to yourself or others as a result of your dinking either through drunk driving or drinking yourself to death. The grades are the grades given out by MADD to those cities.

Least Dangerously Drunk
2. Miami, FL
I think it has to do with the fact everyone who drinks and drives tend to drink from 10PM-5AM then drive home at 7AM.. **** never closes out here.
Did you guys see this? Look at the generalization under the "Deputize Yourself"..wide turns..you're drunk!

Studies show that state laws that put strict limits on where and when alcohol can be sold help cut the number of booze-induced trips to the E.R. — and the morgue. That's because self-destructive drinkers tend to buy alcohol impulsively and at late hours. Go to alcoholpolicy.niaaa.nih.gov to see if your state could use a stronger stance.
Deputize Yourself
Roughly 1.4 million people are arrested for DUIs each year, but Mothers Against Drunk Driving estimates that for every driver cuffed, another 88 are never pulled over. Use your cell phone to lower that number. Besides the obvious indicators of intoxication, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration also cites subtler signs, such as someone making extra-wide turns, going straight through a turn-only lane, or driving with his or her face close to the windshield. If the clues accumulate, make the call. (In many states, 311 is nonemergency dispatch.)

No doubt on this one.sause said:
- When I bartended in the early 90s in a south side blue collar suburban bar, it was fairly commonplace to give customers their last drink in a "go cup".
-We would serve mixed drinks in a regular high ball glass and for 10 cents extra, you could get a mixer in a beer mug instead. Yea, not a lot of high ball glasses getting used.
-When the drinking age was 18, it was fairly easy to get into bars at age 15 or 16. I was a regular at a place that my best friend's uncle owned at age 16. His cousin was bartender there and one night after we had been going there for almost two years, he was looking at my driver's licence and said, "you just turned 18 two weeks ago? I have been serving you for almost 2 years!!" I said, "you are the same age as me and you have been bartending and serving me those drinks, plus shooting pool in the traveling league."
-There was beer at our high school senior picnic which I believe came out of the student council fund. You had to show an ID and get a hand stamp, but the stampers were other seniors (not a lot of IDs getting checked).
Unbeleiveable the way it used to be - those stories are not really that unusual for that time period in Milwaukee. It slowed a bit when the drinking age went to 21, but not by much.
96. Fargo, ND F WOOT!
But I think its because of the cops and all the DUI's that are written. They will set up stops "sobriety checkpoints" where they pull everyone over and check them. Lame-o!!
This actually made the front page of our newspaper!

Too bad DUI checkpoints are a major violation of your constitutional rights.
