Where did Drunk City come from? |
| Drunk City is a historic movement dating back to prohibition. Organized crime artificially set ridiculous prices for alcohol, making it difficult for serious drinkers to enjoy their favorite pastime. On August 25th 1930, several enterprising individuals in a Saskatchewan town began collaborating on a plan for an underground club to produce and distribute alcohol to select members at reasonable prices. By that October, the first ever Duketoberfest took place the title named after one of the founders who was simply known as the Duke. Long past the end of prohibition, Drunk City underground bars proliferated and members enjoyed quality untaxed drinking. During the mid-80s, railroad lines were conglomerated to larger municipalities and Drunk City became a virtual ghost town. New memberships dwindled and eventually, the last underground bars disappeared. |
What is Drunk City now? |
| Before his death, the grandfather of Dan Bowler revealed the names of several remaining Drunk City members. From his discussions with them, Dan Bowler learned the depth and potential of the drunken secret society that had slowly slipped into oblivion in the decades before his birth. Armed with this information, and a new enthusiasm, Drunk City society would soon be resurrected in tribute to those who had passed. |
| Several years after his discovery, Dan Bowler bestowed his knowledge of this society upon his closest friends, who now form the core of the Drunk City high council. The extravagant rituals and ceremonies relayed to him only in stories were codified and guarded with the utmost secrecy in hopes of once again reviving the spirit of the past. |
