At 71, he may be telling the truth. Most people aren’t aware that the bodies ability to metabolize alcohol decreases considerably as you age. Knock them back fast enough in a short window, and it builds quickly. All the more reason it is imperative to not drive afterwards. People always want to try and remember the old charts saying 1 drink an hour is okay, but that is for a young, healthy person.
