No Kennedy Jokes Please

moddrunkardMen's Health magazine has issued its list of the "drunkest" cities in America and the apparently booze-happy citizens of Fresno, California, get top honors, edging out several other cities in their own state and the rest of the Wet and Wild West. Boston was deemed the "least drunk" in the nation in findings that also highlighted a national schism. Western states tended to dominate the top 10 drunkest states and eastern states were more prone to be less drunk (with the exception of Salt Lake City -- go figure).

The magazine said it will publish the full list of 100 major cities in its March edition. The list compiled data such as death rates from alcoholic liver disease, drunk-driving car crashes, binge-drinking information, and drunken-driving arrests and penalties.

The Top 10 Drunkest Cities, according to Men's Health:

  1. Fresno, California
  2. Reno, Nevada
  3. Billings, Montana
  4. Riverside, California
  5. Austin, Texas
  6. St. Louis, Missouri
  7. San Antonio, Texas
  8. Lubbock, Texas
  9. Tucson, Arizona
  10. Bakersfield, California

The Top 10 Least Drunk Cities:
  1. Boston, Massachusetts
  2. Yonkers, New York
  3. Rochester, New York
  4. Salt Lake City, Utah
  5. Miami, Florida
  6. Newark, New Jersey
  7. Durham, North Carolina
  8. New York City, New York
  9. Fort Wayne, Indiana
  10. Manchester, New Hampshire
