Miami Dolphins’ fans get no respect. Not only is their team not that good, but they can’t even get properly drunk.
 

The Westword, a paper in Denver, created the “Cities with the Drunkest Football Fans Tournament” based solely on a random collection of YouTube videos of hammered hotheads. Much to their dismay, Miami just didn’t make the cut.
 

But Riptide 2.0, The Miami New Times Blog, is indignant. You can insult their city’s football teams, but you can’t insult their drinking ability. Besides, it’s simply not fair to base the entire city’s fan intoxication level based solely on the Dolphins. You’ve got to look at the big picture, and the big picture includes the University of Miami.
 

As the blog’s Gus Garcia Roberts points out:

Only judging Miami's football-related drunkenness by Dolphins' fans is sort of like judging Michael Jordan's athleticism only by his baseball career. As any Sugar Bowl romantic can tell you in between gulps from his green-and-orange beer bong, University of Miami football attracts and breeds some of this nation's finest drunks.

He even provides the lovely video above as proof positive of University of Miami’s superior boozing skills.
 

If that doesn’t make you proud to be a Hurricane, what will?
