Hot tubs! - Snowboarding Forum

mojo maestro · 02-12-2011, 01:43 PM

Anyone know why I get so hammered after soakin' in the hot tub? Couple beers or what not at the hill and no tub, I'm up late, drinkin' and everythings good. Same amount of alcohol and a tub soak, I'm a drunkin' Irishman at a St. Pattys Day parade. I've seen warnings about alcohol and hot tubs but I have no idea why.

I don't know the science behind it, but it's true. The problem isn't being in the hottub, it's getting out. You don't feel it until you get out then realize you're HAMMERED!

hmm googled it. seems like it doesn't really make you more drunk its just heat has some of the same effects as drinking.
dehidration, dizzyness, increased bloodflow.

Do you not understand that beer/alcohol is a dehydrant, that a hot tub is a dehydrant, and that heat is a dehydrant?

Until you or someone you love drowns to death.

Water and alcohol are not something to joke around about.

Eh, natural selection... it can be a bitch.

I don't mean to be harsh, but sometimes the truth is.

Not as much of a moron as you would be for actually drinking "shitloads of booze" in a hot tub in the first place.

i hope nature selects you.
