I survived a Hell's Basket / Worst Shots You've Ever Done

Last night was my buddy's big going away party, as he's leaving to teach English in Japan. Anyway we were partying at the bar on campus that he works at, and me and another friend decided to make him a going away shot. We used half whiskey/half Bombay, then topped with Creme the Menthe. We didn't think it'd taste that good, which was the point. I think the Creme the Menthe overpowered everything else though, so it probably just tasted like peppermint gum :lol

So we were laughing as he took it down, and he's like "all right it's my turn!" and he grabs us by the necks and takes us downstairs to the bar, and has the bartender make two shots for us. The first one isn't so bad, it's called a "Rocky Mountain Bear Fucker" or something like that, just 3 different things, I can't quite remember, but it wasn't bad, just a shot, so whatever.

Then the second shot - a Hell's Basket :-\

Maybe you guys have heard of Prairie Fires - a shot of tequilla topped with tabasco. Anyway a Hell's basket is similar, except it's a drop shot, like a Bottlecap. So him and the bartender are pouring bottles of tabasco into highball glasses, and then when it's full enough, they drop the shot of tequilla in. :S It ended up being 1 bottle of tabasco around for each of us, so maybe 2 ounces?

Needless to say, I did not puke, though my friend did (being brown conquers again! :p). But holy shit, I was out for twenty minutes rinsing my mouth out ^_^ After that I danced it off and was already quite drunk, so good times ensued.

So what's the worst shot you guys have ever had?

EDIT: All that tabasco did, however, give the shits later on in the night.

I drink Captain Morgan pretty much exclusively. So I havent had many other shots.

I did take a shot of tequila......I can now say I dont like tequila. It tastes like piss I could barely keep it down.

Not very exciting I know.

Interestingly enough, the only rums I've ever tasted are plain-jane Barcardi (white/dark). I'd like to try Mount Gay and definitely spiced rum.

I don't think tequilla tastes bad, but I don't think it tastes good either. Reminds me of gasoline :lol

Surfer on Acid is pretty bad, pretty much anything with Jagermeister is bad (Jager + Red Bull = fun + messed up in the head)

I had an Incredible Hulk the other day and was puking my guts out later that evening. I think it had Hennessey and some other crap.

Forget everything you know about Tequila, Aguavera Tequila is smothest shot I have ever taken...really good. Other tequilas make me gag.
 
I did once take a full shot glass full of Tobasco sauce during a night which I was drinking a lot, because of a dare.

The worst drinking experience I've ever survived was drinking 21 shots of Vodka as a Junior in High School. Amazingly, I didn't puke or get a hangover.

Whatever shot they use Yagermeister in.

But my favorite shot isn't a shot per se. Irish Carbomb. Those things are da bomb. *snicker*

Heh, this is the exact drink I was thinking of when clicking on the thread. My god the way the Bailey's Irish Creme curdles in the alcohol is downright revolting. Just trying to get past the visual is a exercise in fortitude and you still have the worst to come.

Irish Carbombs are delicious!

And I don't get the Jaegermeister hate. I can sip that shit all day long.

It's Henny & Hpnotiq, though I forget the ratios (it's not 50/50). I've heard mixed opinions on Irish Carbombs - some say they're awesome, but others think they're gross b/c of the curdling. Seeing as to how I'm a texture kinda guy, I'd probably hate them too :lol Plus I prefer lighter beers, not Guiness.

Cement mixer. BLEAH.

And ya'll best be STEPPIN off the Jager hate. Jager is responsible for me having sex sometimes.

I cant tell you the worst shots, because I was too drunk when I made them to remember... however I will add my favorite shots.

Incredible Hulk (its a sipper not a shot, and I make it 50/50)
Jager-bomb (The joys of red bull and the joys of jager... godbless)
Chocolate Cake Shot (teh tastee)

and my favorite drink

The Strong Bull - two shots of vodka, apple cider vinegar, red bull, and beer. Available at Hub Pub locations in Japan. http://www.pub-hub.com/menu/cocktail.html

My friend lined me up three vodka shots, and on the second one I coughed and it came out of my nose. After about 10 second of searing intense pain I took the third shot.

The prairie fire is a great shot to do when you want to screw around with your friends. You get a round for the group, and ask the bartender to put extra tabasco (a fair bit extra) in one of them. Then you all down'em together, and the one poor sap is wondering how all his buddies are so hard... :)

Three numbers: The 7-8-9

Pick a bottle on the bar, 7 left, 8 right, 9 left

Mix those three together and you've got your 7-8-9

For my 22nd birthday, I was 2 handing Prairie Fires, not knowing what they were.

I was messed up something fierce for a few days.

I'm gonna dare one of you guys to do a Hell's Basket :lol Where's all the big drinkers? Diablos?? :p
I think I'm probably the biggest drinker here, and as such will answer you: there is no way in hell I would befoul precious liquor with fucking Tabasco sauce. Just because you were dumb enough to drink it doesn't mean I am! Haha, +1 Drunken Triumph!

:lol it was more just a "proper" send-off for my buddy :D Otherwise, I would never had done it :p

They were probably using cheap-as-shit tequilla too.

goddamit, Griese!
Skol is flat out the worst shot you can take. Worst/cheapest/beat vodka ever.

After that, it was probably the Flaming Moe I had. Despite what people on The Simpsons say, the drink is god-awful.

The worst is "Three Wise Men."

One shot of Jack Daniels, one of Jim Beam, and one of Johnnie Walker all poured into a highball glass. Often liberally poured. Tastes like shit and will take a couple gulps of pain to knock back.
