Boston Not As Think As You Drunk It Is: Least Drunk City in America

According to a new list created by Men's Health, Boston is officially the least drunk city in America, blasting the stereotype of the drunken Masshole into oblivion. Drunkenness statistics were compiled based on liver disease death rates, alcohol-related car accidents, DUI arrests and penalties, and binge drinking frequency. NYC accompanies us in the 10 least drunk cities, so perhaps public transportation lowered our DUI stats and overall rankings. Car-bound California and Texas each took three of the ten most drunk spots, with Fresno, Riverside, and Bakersfield imbibing for Cali and Austin, San Antonio, and Lubbock doing the Lone Star state not so proud.
