    For all familiar, you the know the gallon challenge is man's perpetual struggle to drink a gallon of whole milk in under an hour. The trick is, you have to keep it all down(no throwing up). I want to assure you all now, without personal details(maybe some later) that IT CAN NOT BE DONE. DONT BE SUCKERED INTO IT!

    Posting your own gallon challenge stories would be appreciated and entertaining.

    Screw that. I want to know if anyone's been able to accomplish the Century Club. I got to 55 about 4 years ago, but I couldn't go on.

    I've been to parties where 2 people accomplished it. Of course they were sick as dogs the next day.

    My college goal was to do it, but I never did.

    Ahh, how priorities change as we get older!

    I've done it twice. 100 shots worked out to be around 7.5 pints.

    My friends, who it should be noted were so into beer they brewed it, used to try it all the time, and there were a couple of them who'd do it with regularity...We used to do boat races all the time, and that I was ok at, but the century club guys would leave me in their dust.

    Or ten 12oz cans. Hmmm...10 beers in an hour and 40 minutes? I can do it if it's Coors Light.

    The rule when we did it was that you weren't allowed to use the bathroom. That was the toughest part.

    I had a really cool mechanical clock that used a number of ball bearings and tracks to show you the time. An arm would sweep down and pick up a ball every minute. When the clock picked up, you had to down a shot.

    It's quite frustrating actually. The first 25-35 minutes seem to go very slowly, then the next 35 go at a nice pace. The last half an hour it seems like the clock is picking up a ball every ten seconds!

    I thought the Century Club was something you did with the ladies.

    I never did 100 shots in 100 minutes but I always used to do Power Hour back in college which was 60 shots in an hour. That always had me pretty wasted so I don't think I could do 100.

    Something that won't get you sick and that's funt to try is to eat 6 salteen crackers in 1 minute without anything to drink. Impossible to do and always easy money when you bet a drunk person that they can't do it.

    This thread reminds me of that Malcom on the Middle episode where Francis ate like a 100 marshmallow duck things. ( I think it was 100.)

    As for the milk thing, I'm not a big fan of milk, at least for drinking. I'd be doing good to get a glass of milk down in an hour. :)

    done several times

    you need good company and good conversation and also try not to drink in between each shot (if not things can go horribbly wrong)

    I did this at least once, sometimes twice per semester while at Rice. It really conditioned me to be the binge drinker that I am today.

    You will get it down, but it will come back up. the milk will currdle from the acid in your stomach, making you puke. There is no way on earth you could do it.

    I never made it to Century Club in college, but I accomplished Power Hour (60 shots of beer in 60 minutes) several times...
