Boston - Least Drunk City in US !!!

Photobucket


In a recent Study done by the Health magazine, Boston was found to be the least Drunk city of US while Fresno, California was found to be the most Drunk.

The Study considered various factors for its results which included no. of cases of crashes due to drunk driving, no. of arrests in drunk driving case, death rates from alcoholic liver diseases and the severity of penalites given for drunk driving. 

Do you believe this report. Can you believe Boston can be the least Drunk city in US. Have you not seen youth drinking all night at Fanueil Hall. A city with most no. of Universities and thousands of Students cannot be least drunk. They may be 'Safe drunk drivers' or somehow resistant to Liver diseases of the alcohol but least drunk is completely unacceptable. 

More surprising thing is Miami and NYC being in the 10 least drunk cities. Its kind of demoralizing people of Miami when you tell them you don't drink enough. But anyways you have to check out the results to find out your cities ranking and comment on whether you agree with your city's ranking.
