One tequila, two tequila, three tequila... DRUNK.

Ah, Road Snacks, you've done it again. You've created another amazing list, this time highlighting the drunks of Illinois.

Top 25 Drunkest Places in Illinois, List

Right off the bat I have to mention that I'm very disappointed that Aurora didn't make it in the top 25. Especially after the city announced that they were coming up with a Habitual Drunkard list to not allow certain people to purchase alcohol.

How Road Snacks came up with the ranking is actually quite comical. The factors, including the number of bars, pubs, wineries and liquor stores per capita all makes sense to me...

  • Number of bars and pubs per capita
  • Number of wineries per capita
  • Number of liquor stores per capita
  • Each city’s drunk related tweets within the last week
  • Each city’s divorce rate

But the divorce rate!? I see how alcohol could play a factor in a reason for divorce, but I feel like it's not the MAIN reason why people get divorces. I assume it would be money. People always fight about money. But what do I know?

Here are the rankings of the Top 25 Drunkest Places in Illinois:

  1. Loves Park
  2. Alton
  3. Libertyville
  4. Geneva
  5. Grayslake
  6. Blue Island
  7. Chicago
  8. Springfield
  9. Lisle
  10. Schaumurg
  11. Kankakee
  12. Villa Park
  13. Belleville
  14. East Peoria
  15. Rock Island
  16. Lombard
  17. Crystal Lake
  18. Bloomington
  19. Quincy
  20. Carbondale
  21. Champaign
  22. Niles
  23. Des Plaines
  24. Westmont
  25. Rockford
Way to go Loves Park! You made it to the top of the list! You beat out the entire city of Chicago, college towns across the country and even my home town, which I thought for sure would be number one.
Be safe out there Loves Park!
