Butt-Chugging: Students, Experts Recoil At Alcohol Enema Case
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Before an unruly Tennessee party ended with a student hospitalized for a dangerously high blood alcohol level, most people had probably never heard of alcohol enemas.
Thanks to the drunken exploits of a fraternity at the University of Tennessee, the bizarre way of getting drunk is giving parents, administrators and health care workers a new fear.
When Alexander “Xander” Broughton, 20, was delivered to the hospital after midnight on Sept. 22, his blood alcohol level was measured at 0.448 percent – nearly six times the intoxication that defines drunken driving in the state. Injuries to his rectum led hospital officials to fear he had been sodomized.
Police documents show that when an officer interviewed a fellow fraternity member about what happened, the student said the injuries had been caused by an alcohol enema.
“It is believed that members of the fraternity were utilizing rubber tubing inserted into their rectums as a conduit for alcohol,” according to a police report.
While Broughton told police he remembered participating in a drinking game with fellow members of the Pi Kappa Alpha chapter, he denied having an alcohol enema. Police concluded otherwise from evidence they found at the frat house, including boxes of Franzia Sunset Blush wine.
“He also had no recollection of losing control of his bowels and defecating on himself,” according to a university police report that includes photos of the mess left behind in the fraternity house after the party.

As time goes on it seems that young people are getting more and more stupid, reckless, and dangerous in their persuits for a buzz. Whatever happened to just drinking? What could possibly be the appeal of getting alcohol pumped into your rectum over simply drinking it? Maybe, at thirty, Im already just thinking too old-fashioned to understand.

What a waste of a good drink. Part of the pleasure of having a drink is the actual drinking, enjoying the taste and the aroma. What a waste stick it up your rectum.
