Hard Drinking Guys

 


I thought this was probably fake, but according to this fact check it was true. But they also let the servants and musicians drink and eat.


"The Washington Post reported the night’s tab to be estimated at about 89 pounds, four shillings and two pence –  the rough equivalent of $15,400 today. In addition to the drinks, the tab included dinner for all 55 guests, fees for broken glasses and meals and drinks for musicians and “servants.”
