Washington State Cougs Claim They Drank Auburn Bar Out Of Beer, Are Beer Drinking Champions

If you dropped by Quixotes, a watering hole in Auburn, Friday night and couldn’t grab a beer because they were completely out of it, it’s because the place was overrun by Washington State Cougars, and they drank every drop of beer in the joint — according to them. They also seem to fancy themselves as “champion beer drinkers,” and are now recognized “worldwide for their drinking prowess.” Worldwide? Interesting. This is actually the first I’ve heard anything about WSU students and alumni mentioned with other beer-drinking heavyweights.

Here’s the tweet that made the above claim:

After the obligatory “Pics or it didn’t happen,” @CougShirts followed up with the below visual evidence, showing Crown Royal bags placed over the beer taps to indicate they were empty.

At 10:19pm, just under four hours before Quixotes was to close, bartender Brooke said, “Your fans drank us completely out of beer. […] We are going to have to close the place down.”

The fans, students, alumni, and community of Auburn University have all been put on notice. The Cougs — from the PAC 12, mind you — came into your town like savage white men atop horses into a vulnerable and peaceful Native American camp, drank you under the table, out-tailgated you, and knocked up all your women. I made up the last two items, but they’re implied, I feel.

So, how accurate is all this? Fact? Flat-out lie? Partly true with some embellishment? Defend yourselves, Auburn.

    As a WSU fan who made the trip, here are my observations: Quixotes kind of blows, so it doesn’t shock me that they ran out of kegs…though it is still a pretty big deal to drink any bar out of beer. When I was there, it was packed with Coug fans. The best bar hands down is Skybar, and them running out beer there would be impossible (although they did run out of Fireball, according to one of the bartenders).

    As for my first and only SEC game, it definitely lived up to hype. Great atmosphere, great food, extremely nice and friendly fans. It definitely seemed like Auburn and WSU fans were drinking a similar amount (a shitload) and I think the fans got along very well.
