Don't get into a drinking contest with 32-year old Willard Ashley III, who blew a whopping .69 after his arrest for public intoxication in LaPorte County, Indiana (where a blood alcohol measurement of .08 is legally intoxicated).
Using OnlineConversion.com's BAC calculator (and estimating Ashley's weight at 200 lbs), it appears one would need to consume 32 shots of 80-proof liquor or or 39 beers in one hour to hit .69.
This Bud's for you, Willard.
For comparison, here are some celebrity BAC measurements taken at the time of their respective arrests:
Tonya Harding (former celebrity boxer) - .116
Shannen Doherty (co-star of Judd Nelson's) - .130
Tim Allen (alleged comedian) - .150
Steve McNair (Oilers QB) - .180
Oksasa Baiul (what is it with these figure skaters?) - .168
Mike Lookinland (TV's "Bobby Brady") - .255
Bob Probert (legendary Red Wings and Blackhawks enforcer) - .310
Well, we always knew hockey players were tough, but how about Mike Lookinland? I'll bet even Sam the butcher would be impressed.
I'm betting it's a typo and it's a still-very-drunk 0.169
