Earlier this month skiing phenom Bode Miller told 60 Minutes:

There's been times when I've been in really tough shape at the top of the course. If you ever tried to ski when you're wasted, it's not easy.

Now the folks over at Noobsports have taken Bode to task, scientifically speaking.

According to the noobsports site, yesterday, a test subject apparently ski'd three runs  of varying difficulty at Crested Butte Mountain Resort first sober, then wasted (defined as six drinks in two hours). The site promises to post digital photos as well as a detailed answer to their thesis: Is skiing wasted hard?

noob claims there is ample opportunity for a "Sonny Bono moment" if skiing wasted does turn out to be that hard.

We are still waiting for the results to be posted, then we will know once and for all if skiing wasted is a good idea or a bad idea--um, wait, we think we already know the answer to that.

Next question.
