I discovered the perfect cure for a hangover today
Seven hours of basketball and street-hockey with ten-year-olds.

My cousins all got together for an early Easter and brought their small army of kids. We kept them out of everyone's hair by shooting hoops and playing hockey all day. I was the goalie (read: target) and the outlet pass for the outside hoop shot.

I was hung over like a dog when I woke up. I feel like a hundred dollars now.

1. Damn, sounds hard-core. I would be lucky to make it
through 2 hours of basketball. Our family does touch football for hangover relief... lots more down time.;)

10. Oh, make no mistake. My ass is kicked
I took a puck off the kneecap, and I think maybe every single muscle in my legs are pulled. I'm going to be gimping around tomorrow, but it beats the hell out of a sour head and stomach. I needed the excercise, too. Nice to be outside again without freezing.

3. I don't know about 7 hours
but you've got the right idea.

I used to be in a field hockey league, and we had games every Sunday. I'd party like a monster Saturday night, but after a game of field hockey Sunday morning all was well in the world. :)

5. Best cure for a hangover is----don't drink! Works every time.

year old while hungover

7. Never had a hangover, never been drunk
I get migraines if I have more than one drink...not sure I'm missing anything though!

Right before working out.

Relief and redemption at the same time.

15. You've gotten this all wrong, that's not a cure for a hangover.
You've been very, very bad and that was Hell. :hi:
