The Top 10 “Drunkest” Cities In Indiana!

Well, I'm not sure how prestigious a honor this would be, to be one of the top ten drunkest cities in your state.  Although Evansville, once made the list of "Fattest Cities", an equally unflattering.  I also feel like we have the most strip joints and tattoo parlors by capita.  All those are saved for future writings, but the criteria for being one of the "Drunkest Cities" in our state was created by the website "Road Snacks"

So, how do you decide which city drinks the most? By the number of available places to buy booze, and by how often people are talking about drinking, that’s how!  Add in one more piece of criteria...the divorce rate. Oddly enough, most of the cities on this list are some of the smaller ones in the state.  I was amazed that Indianapolis wasn't on the list.  So here we go, with the top ten cities in Indiana that drink the most.

Considering we also once made the list of one of the best places in America to “live, work, and play, that fact seems to be fairly shot in the ass considering we're also fat and drunk.
