Drunk British Tourist

A specific type of English tourist. Latin name: Homo Ebrius Brittanicus (Drunk British Man)

Drunk British Tourists are mostly comprised of men, but women can be Drunk British Tourists too. Young DBTs are almost always found in single-sex groups called stag/hen parties for men and women respectively. They also have a tendency to wear the dumbest costumes imaginable as if it were Halloween. DBTs over 50 years old are almost always some flavour of obese. Due to the fact that their skin isn’t adapted to the high UV levels of their destinations, DBTs always turn lobster red after a while in the sun.

DBTs mostly restrict their drunken escapades to specific cities on the Southern European coast such as Benidorm in Spain and Albufeira in Portugal, where they gather in “strips”, though they have been known to terrorise other cities in Europe such as Krakow in Poland and Amsterdam in the Netherlands. They always travel via budget airlines such as Ryanair and EasyJet.

As the name implies, Drunk British Tourists have one goal on their travels and one goal only: Get wasted on cheap alcohol. Said alcohol is usually procured in British pub-style bars specifically catered to them in the aforementioned strips; DBTs refuse to visit the local pubs, try the local cuisine and learn the local language yet complain about immigrants in England doing the same.

While wasted, DBTs do stupid shit that makes life hell for everyone in the area. Look up Drunk British Tourist and you’ll see what I mean.
Last week in Albufeira, a group of Drunk British Tourists started a bar fight, injuring dozens.
