Considering where it happened, my money's on Kokanee.

CP rail personnel grabbed this gentleman and seemed to rouse him out of his state of intoxicated unconsciousness. And he got up, grabbed his beer, and was on his way," said Dubnyk.

The man wandered to a nearby campground, where he was picked up by RCMP and put in detachment holding cells for the night to sober up.

Ahhhh......May two-four. That guy is invited to have a drink in TarpTown.

/declared myself lord mayor of TarpTown on Saturday night

I'm guessing Kokanee wasn't the only think he was drinking that night...

I'm thinking he came upon a case of Extra Old Stock.
 
Inconceivable!

"whatever doesnt kill you simply makes you, stranger"

After his train ride he must be a major weirdo

The train ran over him but it didn't run him over, if you know what I mean.

I don't get it. Now, I'm no stranger to alcohol. I love beer. I love bourbon. And, occasionally, I've probably had more than I should. And, on some of those occasions, I've managed to sleep heavier than normal. And, on some of THOSE occasions, there's been some ambient noise (party downstairs, music, sirens, the occasional monkey knife fight) that I slept through.

But how drunk do you have to be to not wake up TO THE SOUND OF A TRAIN ROLLING OVER YOU?

I thought that guy on America's Got Talent last night was awesome for being kicked in the nuts on purpose

But being run over by a train?

Only by drinking Canadian beer could this gentleman have done something like this and live to forget about it.

26 train cars? That's nothing. I bet you a drunken Nova Scotian could survive more than that
