Any of you have kids or know kids that went out last night? I remember doing this back when I was in college and would come home for Thanksgiving: go out with local friends, hang one on and then be hungover for Thanksgiving, lol. They call it 'Blackout Wednesday' now I believe. Sometimes it progresses to your 20 something/early 30 something kids going out together and meeting friends. etc. I'm trying to remember when I stopped doing it....I think when I got married and started my own family and you just can't conduct/host a Thanksgiving hungover. Its brutal.

Never heard of Thanksgiving Eve or Blackout Wednesday, but found myself out late in Mexico last night with a couple of 18 year olds drinking legally for the first time (mine). Woke up this morning to a mild hangover and the headline "Denver drops to coldest temps in 265 days."


Very nice, a rite of passage for sure. Who ate the tequila worm? ;) What kind of shape are the kids in? Yeah, my son in Denver is like WTF?

I'm surprised a few aren't aware of Thanksgiving Eve drinking. I know my Mom would be pissed at me the next day, lol. But she wouldn't rip me a new one because we always had family over and she didn't want to make a scene. ;) Hair of the Dog Day is an alternative name for Thanksgiving back in the day.
