Bob Hawke is a top Aussie. He was in politics and got to be
Prime Minister of
Australia, which is like being the Queen's assistant. However, he is not famous for this achievement. The reason he is famous is because he was
a champion
beer drinker when he was young. In 1952 he won a
beer skolling competition at the
University of Western Australia by
skolling three
schooners in 9.3 seconds. Then in 1954 at
Oxford he got a
Guinness Book World Record for skolling 2.5 pints in 12 seconds. After he finished pissing up at uni he became President of the Australian Council of
Trade Unions. He won heaps of wage cases and Aussies loved him because they got more money to spend on
piss. Bob had to be chauffered around lots because half the time he was too pissed to drive. After he finished pissing up at the
ACTU, he entered politics and ran the country for a while. Bob is Australia's favourite politician and a pisstank and he is a top Aussie.
