17yo when I got blasted for the first time. I had been at parties and drank before, and hosted them myself, but I was always too paranoid to get too drunk. I had friends that would get faced and do stupid shit. Usually that would destroy stuff if they didn't have a babysitter.

When I got seriously drunk for the first time, I had just left my high school job for the evening and went a party being thrown by a hot female I knew. I got there after the party ended, but we just chilled and drank and drank. The only thing left was 2 liters of wine coolers.. So I chugged one. Straight down. Kinda funny to get obliterated on wine cooler! :) Certainly did the trick for me...

Here's a goofy story.
The QUICKEST I ever got drunk... In college, this hot girl invites me to a house party. She asks me to bring a bottle of Everclear. (Like a knucklehead, I'd do shots occasionally to show what a stud I was. (Read: Stupid)) Anyhow... This girl is barely 5' and had to be well under 100lbs. She'd usually match me in Everclear shots, with no problem. I show up to the party with a buddy. The host drags me into the kitchen, grabs the bottle, pours a shot, and hands it to me. Ok... *Chug* *shudder*. She takes the bottle pours another shot, hands it to someone else. They shoot it, she takes the bottle, pours another shot, hands it to me. *Ulp..* *Chug* *COUGH COUGH* She takes the bottle, pours another shot, hands it to someone else. They shoot it. She takes the bottle, pours another shot, hands it to me... "Oh shit..." *Chug* *COUGH COUGH* "Ok, I'm done..." I stagger out of the kitchen, after being there for no more than a minute and a half... I see my buddy, who still saying "Hi" to the first person he ran into, and I say, "Hey, err... Brandon... I'm... DRUNK... Erg"

Didn't puke or anything... But it was funny getting a night of drinking done in the first minute that I had been there!

(Kids, don't do this at home. I'm not bragging. I just thought it was kinda funny.)

13yo. Same night as the 1st time I smoked pot. Went to my friends house and his high school aged brothers were having a party. They thought it'd be cool to give the middle school kids beers and bong hits.

Haha! This thread brought back memories and made me post, grats!

I was 11 and my dad and a friend of his who had a boat went to a lake to camp out and fish for 3 days on a small island in the center of the lake. Well, they bought me 2 6 packs of Mountain Dew and them 6 cases of beer (24 per case = 144 beers). It's easy to see that in the first hot day I had drank all of my Dew by that night. So for the next 2 days or so all I drank was beer. I must have drank at least a case and a half myself in 2 days (36 beers).

And the odd thing was, I never really felt all that drunk after all those beers or even barfed. But I was eating a lot and sweating a lot, too. I also spent most of the time driving the boat around the lake while they fished and drank. In fact, my dad and his friend were so drunk finishing off the beers the last night, I had to drive the boat back and get it on the trailer myself. Then they sat in the truck and slept off their beers for a few hours before they were both sober enough to drive us home.

Ahh, the fun times of childhood.

The next time I got seriously drunk I was about 16 at a friends house and drank him under the table with Vodka and beer chasers.

Ahem... never. And I am 3 years over the legal drinking age here. Something about being loaded on a form of drug that bothers me....

Ok, I'm just too cheap to buy some liquor that I like.

I think 14 years old, maybe 13, Wisconsin used to be like that. Tip for newbies: Strawberry Quik doesn't calm the stomach. Last time I got drunk was maybe 17-18 years ago.

Shit faced drunk was 14. Actually got alcohol poisoning and barfed all over my room. I was messed up for a good week.

Parents were out of town and my (older) brother had a few friends over and we busted into the parents liquor cabinet and apparently I didn't know you were supposed to limit your intake :p

I totally blacked out not to long into it but I heard I did some pretty crazy shit. I still to this day (14 years later now) cannot stand the smell or taste of vodka. Every time someone says "you can't even taste the vodka in this drink!!" I can.

Wow. A non-drinker (non-drunk?) on this forum who doesn't think people who get drunk are dirt? Amazing! :laugh: Seriously, I agree with ya though. :)

First time I got drunk, I passed out and don't remember anything, so I'm not sure. Seriously I think I was somewhere around 15. I remember once I stole a 1.75 litre of SoCo from the old man. He obviously didn't like it and/or didn't care, otherwise I probably wouldn't have been able to sit for a while. Anyway, I was in a stage of low self esteem, and figured, fuck it, I'll drink the whole thing. I did and puked my guts out a few times. Like a previous poster has said, I can't smell SoCo without feeling like I need to empty my stomach.

Senior year of high-school over spring "break." Tequila, lots of it. I survived with only a splitting headache the next morning, but a couple of my friends were praying to the porcelain gods that night.
