24 beers in a day, 24 beers in a case..

When Paul Newman said those words, he couldn't have anticipated the tradition at Princeton that would follow. On 24th April every year, students at Princeton go on a drinking spree of 24 beers in as many hours. Apparently, it's common to come to classes inebriated, and also to slip in a few drinks to try to get through the day successfully. Newman's day as it is called is probably not the best legacy Paul wants to leave behind, especially after his son Scott died of a drug overdose in 1978. Sanctioned or not, it's a great excuse to get drunk!
