Honestly, I'm surprised they all didn't fuckin die. 54 bottles of wine and that's the first item on the bill lmao. The 2nd item? 60 More bottles of wine.
So everyone was pretty much staggering around double fisting wine bottles
Amazing
Someone should do the math on what the average standard drinks per person is.
Wash it down with a little whiskey, some beer or cider, and a few glasses of alcoholic punch.
That's a pretty respectable amount for a young man, much less guys pushing 60 like Washington et co. Though, to be fair, considering the First Horse of Philadelphia served as Washington's bodyguard during the war, at least some of them were probably still young. Late 20s, at least.
