I'm talkin' moonshine. Since moving from New England to the South I've been wondering where all the stills are at. I don't think I can fully assimilate until I've experienced the White Lightning. Finally, some bona fide homemade moonshine is coming my way. Can't wait to see what ol' Willie's band was fueling up with, what Uncle Jesse used to run through Hazzard County, and all those guys like George Jones sang about. I hope it comes in a jug with three Xs scrawled on it ...

Modern Drunkard Magazine Online - Andre the Giant: Simply amazing.

Another time, in the ‘70s, Andre was holding court at a beach-front bar in the Carolinas, boozing it up with fellow wrestlers Blackjack Mulligan, Dick Murdoch, and the inimitable Ric Flair. They’d been drinking with gusto for hours when Flair goaded Mulligan and Murdoch into some slap-boxing with Andre, who had poured over 60 beers down his gullet. One of the two “accidentally” sucker-punched Andre. The Giant became enraged, grabbed both Mulligan (6’5”, 250 lbs.) and Murdoch (6’3”, 240 lbs.) and dragged them into the ocean, one in each hand, where he proceeded to hold them under water. Flair intervened, and Andre released the men, assuring them he was only playing around. Murdoch and Mulligan, who had nearly drowned, weren’t so sure, but neither messed with Andre the Giant again. They also picked up the tab.
