Map shows which counties are home to the highest number of excessive drinkers in the United States
Look at Wisconsin, LOL:

I’ve seen excessive drinking on Lake Winnebago too
More than the authors of the study think is appropriate.
That having been said, I'm not certain how accurate the map is, since I can't imagine there being such stark differences between counties once you cross a state line like between western Indiana and eastern Illinois. (Utah, with all the Mormons, would be the exception here.)
Of course, with the number of boyfriends you have, one for each baby is going to get you mighty drunk.

You have clearly never been to western Indiana
Western Indiana has a bunch of tee-totaling Christians compared to eastern Illinois?
Or downstate Illinois is drinking heavily to deal with being governed by corrupt Chicagocrats?
Mike Pence told them smoking was fine and beer led to strong feelings about your mother. They took it seriously

It’s good to see the meth industry can still control their territory.
I never was very good at drinking tons of beers. But Peppermint Schnaaps, it felt like I could drink it endlessly and never get hung over. I’d take a bottle of it to parties and polish most of the bottle off by myself.
That makes me feel like puking just thinking about it.

Not a big fan of the peppermint flavor, but one brand makes a 101 proof Peppermint Schnaaps. So if I have to put up with that taste, might as well get schnockered ASAP.
I love the root beer flavored schnaaps, FWIW. GREAT taste!
Back when I joined the military and got stationed overseas I became friends with a couple of other guys from Wisconsin. People from other states would ask us where we learned to drink like we did. We looked at each other with a "what the hell are you talking about?" look on our faces.
Then the first time I set foot in a state with a drinking age of 21 I couldn't believe they actually enforced a drinking age. This was during the days before Wisconsin was the last hold out for a 21 year old drinking age.
