Slovak Handball

“Slovak Handball” (Slovenská hádzaná in Slovak) is a slang expression for getting blackout drunk by drinking an excessive number of shots. The fast tempo and the way the shots are ‘thrown’ into you resemble the pace and style of the sport handball.
This style of drinking is mainly popular in rural areas of Slovakia, where many so-called “professional” alcohol drinkers can be found.
