Kilkenny man comes home after a few drinks, sleeps on top of the wardrobe thinking it’s a bunk bed

Sure, when you’re in need of a kip.

After having a few drinks, Peter Griffin from Family Guy pretty much nailed the idea of needing a little snooze during this conversation with his wife Lois.

Lois: “Peter, you’re drunk again.”
Peter: “No, I’m just exhausted because I stayed up all night drinking.”

Yeah, see how far that excuse will get you!

Anyways, after a few social beverages, the majority of us are more than happy to hit the hay and if you’re being totally honest, you probably haven’t always slept in the most comfortable of places.

We’ve all got stories of friends – or maybe it’s yourself – nodding off in taxis, chairs, bathrooms, sofas etc, but this story from JOE reader Michael Kearns is a little bit special.

He tells us “Stayed up in a hotel in Dublin for a few nights. Went up with a friend and hit the town, came back to room where he convinced me that I was staying in a bunk bed. Was fairly shook with the drink so just happy to get the head down. Couldn’t move my legs the next next morning though and I had to be lifted off it.”

To Michael’s friend that’s simply known as the “Hacker,” we salute you for convincing your mate into believing that he was actually sleeping on top of a wardrobe.

To be fair, Michael might also be Spider-Man because we’d wager that very few people could scale a large wardrobe after having a few scoops.

Take a look at him asleep like a baby.
