I think some of you will find this pretty funny

Boonie Facts

My fave:

In drinking competitions, David Boon has been known to take swigs from his competitors glasses when they aren't looking :

When a Danish newspaper published a cartoon of David Boon without a moustache, Tasmanians from around the world started rioting.

David Boon once knocked a huge six into the VIP box at the MCG, hitting Chuck Norris square in the forehead and turning him into a fundamentalist christian washed-up lamewad who thinks he's a cowboy.

In games of skill, an inexperienced player may be referred to as a NOOB, meaning he is the complete opposite of David Boon.

For every one of his famous cans of beer he drank on his way to England, David Boon made love to the flight stewardess twice.

If you re-arrange the letters in 'David Boon', you get the words 'vido bonida' which is latin for 'could somebody please bring me some beer and nachos, or just the chips if you can't find any salsa.'

Boonie doesn't read books. He drinks in front of them until they pass out. Then Boonie shakes their hand, rearranges his box and gets on with business.

David Boon uses ripped up VB cartons as toilet paper.

David Boon was the original lead singer for Bon Jovi. Of course, back then it was known as Boon Jovi.

David Boon is known for spirited singing of team songs, the Australian national anthem, and Andrea Bocelli's Con Te Partito.

In very small print on the last page of the Bible it reads, "On the 7th Day, before resting, God created a Moustache and gave it to David Boon".

Followers of Boon, known as 'Booners', are required to kneel towards Launceston and pray 5 times per day.

Boonie's tears don't cure cancer, but they do cure a hard earned thirst as they are 4.9% alcohol.

Scientists once said that challenging Chuck Norris to a fight is the stupidest thing you can do. This is wrong. The stupidest thing you can do is challenge David Boon to a drinking contest.

This "fact" was refuted by Doug Walters (the original title holder) on the Player of Year awards last week, Doug claimed Boonie didn't do it one continuous sitting, he had a number of connecting flights and lounge sittings to do it. To claim the record it must be done on a non-stop flight Sydney to London, current title holder is Rod Marsh.

David Boon never played cricket - he Defined it. Before his existence, it was known as 'generic ball&stick game'.

Boonies so called drinking record is a myth, he even said it himself. No person could drink that many cans on a plane and survive. One can feels like 2 cans at high altitude. They interviewed him in the Herald Sun before the boxing day test and he said it was just a myth that went on for so long it became true in people's eyes. Something for Mythbusters maybe.

In 1998 the Australian government required David Boon to register his beer gut as a dependant, for tax purposes.

David Boon does not stare into your soul... he squints. But he does it so well he can tell what you had for breakfast. If it wasn't beer, he'll kick your *** for being a fairy.

Now thats what i'm talking about!

And weren't they the little 250mL cans anyway? Still a big effort (if true) but not quite 375mL

If you have a Talking Boony, you can ship it to Mongolia, a country that is flat out having radio let alone a TV in whole county. Hide him under 10 blankets, 3 pillows, beneath a table and lock it in the basement and still hear "Got any nachos, I love nachos" at 3am in the morning :P
