Spring Weather Thaws ‘You Honk, We Drink’ Guys

Well, spring has officially sprung, which means longer days, flowers blooming, and, of course, the ‘You Honk, We Drink’ Guys. Nothing says the end of the semester like a group of ten dudes getting drunk in their front lawn on a Sunday afternoon. 

To get the full scoop on the annual tradition, we sat down with Tyler McGreedy, who runs the ‘You Honk, We Drink’ group on Dubuque Street. 

“Seventy degrees means only one [two] things to me, taking my shirt off, and getting drunk outside”. McGreedy says that the group brings the community together. 

“Me and the boys’ passion is to demolish a pack of Bud Lights in the span of an hour. And for the last three months, we’ve had to hide that passion away, staying inside and getting drunk. Now, we get to share our passion with the community. I mean YOU get to decide when I drink, and when I’m lame and sober. Sometimes the community supports us so much that they get to see us puke it all up on our lawn, which I think is pretty great.” 

Nothing says a warm midwestern, spring day, like watching a bunch of 20-year old white guys get drunk. So, go out, support your community, and honk so Tyler and his friends can drink without guilt.
