Toni Kukoc Says He Remembers Needing 7-10 Days To Recover After Partying With Dennis Rodman Because He Ordered 40 Shots Of Vodka And 10 Beers
[Source] - It’s a special type of story, and I couldn’t keep up with him. I partied only once with him because, after that, you need a 7 to 10 days recovery period afterward.
There were four of us out, and the first thing he ordered for a drink was 40 shots of vodka and ten beers. I asked him if there are more people coming, and he just said it’s important to keep the bar open. Everybody who was at the bar that night, he had free food and drinks on Rodman.
First thing's first, needing 7-10 days to recover seems way too low. I don't care who you are, there are maybe 10 people in the world that can handle partying with Rodman. I'm talking guys like Tommy Lee and old school rock stars and like Diego Maradona. Other than that, you're out of commission for a month. The cliche of never drinking again feels like a truth when you get done with Rodman.
Second, what a move by Rodman. It's important to keep the bar open. Truer words have never been spoken. Whether he's literally talking about keeping the bar afloat and the lights on or just keeping the bar flowing with drinks, both are true and accurate. If you have the money, ordering 40 shots of vodka and 10 beers when you walk in is just smart. Also love that's his reply to Kukoc asking if anyone else was showing up. You think Dennis gave a shit? I don't think so. Now personally I'd go more than 10 beers. Go at least 5 buckets and maybe back down on the shots. Feel like 25 shots and 25 beers is the order here vs 40 and 10. I'd rather sip on a cold bottle of Bud Light than rip shots of Vodka. I know, that's the old man in me.
I'll say this too. Rodman has reached the point where any story is believable. You can tell me he partied like this and then went and got 20 rebounds and I'd just nod along. That's the Worm. Probably walked out of that bar with Carmen Electra
Rodman really is one of the most interesting athletes and people of all time. From growing 13 inches and turning into a basketball star. From going from being a janitor to college hoops player. His jump from non-Division I to the Pistons. His transformation from the Pistons Rodman to the Worm. His dating history. His WCW experience. His relationship with North Korea. Everything about him is interesting. Shit just listen to him on KFC Radio
There's gotta be nothing more terrifying and exciting than getting an invite from Rodman to go party. Fucking 10 day hangover is not worth it though.
