There’ll Always be a Germany – Chapter 22

GERMAN MAN FOLLOWS RULES

BERLIN – A man nearly died from alcohol poisoning after quaffing a liter
(two pints) of vodka at an airport security check instead of handing it over
to comply with new carry-on rules, police said Wednesday.

The incident occurred at the Nuremberg airport on Tuesday, where the
64-year-old man was switching planes on his way home to Dresden from a
holiday in Egypt.
