Packers Fan Announces He Will Return To Drinking For Another Season
Chris Lukawski, a longtime devotee of the Packers and beer, is confident his battered liver and family can handle another NFL season of unrestrained alcohol consumption.
00:00:03.900,00:00:04.640
Speculation is over.
00:00:04.830,00:00:06.960
Wisconsin resident and Packers
fan, Chris Lukowski
00:00:07.150,00:00:10.160
has announced that he will return to
drinking for another football season.
00:00:10.310,00:00:13.650
Following his wife's off-season threat
to leave him if didn't get help,
00:00:13.840,00:00:16.250
many expected Lukowski to
give up drinking for good.
00:00:16.440,00:00:19.450
But he held a press conference today
to announce he's not done yet.
00:00:19.600,00:00:22.010
The Packers are my life.
And drinking is my life.
00:00:22.240,00:00:24.830
I think I have another couple
thousand beers left in me.
00:00:25.080,00:00:26.980
Can Lukowski push through
with another good season
00:00:27.120,00:00:29.160
or are his best drinking
days behind him?
00:00:29.260,00:00:31.950
If you're going to need something in the
next two minutes please grab it now
00:00:32.140,00:00:35.100
because you will be unable to find it once
you have entered the Steam Room.
00:00:38.450,00:00:40.670
Welcome to the Steam Room,
I'm Tim Devannon and alongside
00:00:40.870,00:00:44.110
OSN sports analyst Marcus Kelly.
Marcus, there is no "i" in steam.
00:00:44.300,00:00:46.710
I know that Tim.
- Then the Steam Room begins now.
00:00:47.650,00:00:49.590
Marcus, no question in anybody's
mind that Chris Lukowski
00:00:49.830,00:00:52.100
is among the all time greats of
alcohol consumption. - Absolutely right.
00:00:52.290,00:00:54.420
What's he got left to prove?
- Well, questionably nothing, Tim.
00:00:54.800,00:00:56.600
The guys done it all, lost jobs,
destroyed property,
00:00:56.890,00:00:58.040
all in the name of
Packers football.
00:00:58.240,00:00:59.860
And his lifetime stats
are incomparable.
00:01:00.050,00:01:02.690
A .43, career high,
blood alcohol content.
00:01:02.880,00:01:04.590
And six women punched.
00:01:04.780,00:01:05.980
The man just, flat out, loves
to drink. - That's right!
00:01:06.180,00:01:08.910
We've got some footage up of the 2005
Packers victory. Let's take a look.
00:01:09.150,00:01:14.300
Go Pack, go!
Go Pack, go!
00:01:15.140,00:01:16.710
I remember that game. He was
a monster. - That's right.
00:01:16.860,00:01:20.430
He was really the last man standing from
that incredible drinking class of 1974.
00:01:20.620,00:01:23.170
Those were great... - Now Lukowski never
drank as much as Brian Pardville .
00:01:23.360,00:01:25.020
In one sitting though.
- Yeah, but where's Pardville now?
00:01:25.170,00:01:27.070
He's in an AA meeting. Getting
his five year sober chip.
00:01:27.310,00:01:30.180
Lukowski's still sitting in front of his
TV, drinking his weight in beer,
00:01:30.370,00:01:32.640
Week after week. -Can he keep
up this high level of play?
00:01:32.830,00:01:35.100
Of course he can! -He's a far
cry from the '97 Lukowski
00:01:35.250,00:01:38.210
we all knew and loved, who celebrated
the Packers Superbowl victory
00:01:38.410,00:01:40.310
by falling face first into
his backyard barbeque.
00:01:40.540,00:01:43.460
And then being unable to remember why
he had grill marks on his face the next day.
00:01:43.560,00:01:44.850
Let me tell you, the man
has got good form
00:01:45.050,00:01:46.530
and he's been drinking straight
through the off-season.
00:01:46.760,00:01:49.680
Just last Thanksgiving he awkwardly
broke his son's 14 year old girlfriend.
00:01:49.830,00:01:52.660
And then threatened to kill himself by
jumping off the roof of their ranch house.
00:01:52.800,00:01:54.140
Time for the Final Sweat.
00:01:54.340,00:01:56.280
I'm a little bit worried about you.
- Well your concern is insulting.
00:01:56.420,00:01:57.670
Very well.
00:01:57.860,00:02:00.730
Since Chris Lukowski's time
on this earth is limited,
00:02:00.930,00:02:01.900
who's the future of drinking?
00:02:02.140,00:02:04.780
I wouldn't look any further than
the Lukowski household. -Wow!
00:02:04.970,00:02:07.840
Alex Lukowski has shown a
tremendous potential for drinking
00:02:08.040,00:02:10.220
since age three, when his father
poured beer in his bottle
00:02:10.400,00:02:11.370
to keep him quiet
during the game.
00:02:11.520,00:02:13.370
He's already accomplished so
much at such a young age.
00:02:13.560,00:02:15.040
That's right, he has.
-He got wasted out of his mind
00:02:15.230,00:02:16.890
for his job at Gumby's Pizza.
-Absolutely.
00:02:17.090,00:02:18.430
Losing his tooth in
somebody's milkshake.
00:02:18.620,00:02:20.890
And routinely peeing blood.
-He's got the best coach there is.
00:02:21.180,00:02:24.290
If the Packers are still playing, this kid
will be drinking. -He's got a real future.
00:02:24.430,00:02:26.740
Marcus Kelly, I can't tell if we've
survived the Steam Room
00:02:26.940,00:02:29.530
or died and gone to some sort
of warm, steamy purgatory.
00:02:29.770,00:02:30.970
Either way, it's been
an honor, Tim.
00:02:32.790,00:02:35.200
Thanks guys, you will live forever
in our steamy memories.
00:02:35.390,00:02:38.820
Moving on, the Milwaukee Brewers Polish
sausage has admitted to steroid use
00:02:39.010,00:02:40.680
and sausage race fixing.
00:02:42.220,00:02:45.280
