What else would you do if you thought you were going to die, lol.

drink something better than XXXX.

 

[pinefamily]

True, but he is a Queenslander.
Me? I'd be straight for a cold Coopers, lol.

 

[critterguy]

Coopers are too watery, a crown lager would be my premium one I would down, normally just XXXX, Sol and different international beers and ales when they are reduced.

I love how the article doesn't even mention that having alcohol is a bad idea after being bitten by a snake. The whole article is a hoo - har about how macho he was not how stupid he was.

I would think it would be a silly idea to have a beer, doesnt alcohol thin your blood? Would that speed up the reaction at all?

Get to a hospital?

 

[Shotta]

lol pretty damn lucky considering he also had an allergic reaction to the antivenine

I would have had a Hop Hog or a decent IPA of some description.

 

[rockethead]

I would prefer the snake bite over a four x

 

[Umbral]

Maybe he was trying to make himself feel better, you would forget about the bite and just complain about the beer.

On a side note, it's called XXXX because they can't swear on the label to inform you what it tastes like.

I don't know..... I think the poor snake deserved a beer or something a little stronger :twisted:

This bozo was interviewed on the channel 7 morning show earlier today. He showed his finger that was bitten, and indeed his beer fridge... full of XXXX Gold.

 

[Drazzy]

XXXX ... not quite ?!
