LOL....I don't believe so. But what the hell?
Beer swilling will soon be an Olympic event, and I'm told I can put a dent in a keg....so I guess that makes me an athlete.

There was a study many years ago that said drinking a can of beer was equal to running a mile, in terms of its health benefits (we won't talk about the detriments).
The obvious joke coming was when a friend of mine (I was in college - a fraternity, no less!) was sitting in front of the TV with a case of beer. When I asked what he was doing he replied, "running a marathon". He ran it in record time, too.
