Doing it for 90 straight days without falling asleep at the wheel is probably physically impossible without meth.

I'd snort meth and walk over Miller High Life bottles barefooted for $10 million. At least for a short amount of time.

Sure. I’d mix up different routes and stop at different restaurants to make it more tolerable

No truck driver is doing 1k+ a day. Its illegal. Thats a tight 16 hours driving a day. Most couldn't physically do it. I guess you could change vehicles, so you can minimize wear and tear. But I live in Atlanta add have family in BR, so I've done that drive a lot, never a round trip.. Nobody could make it 90 days in a row. Have to drive at night and hit both at the right time (traffic). It makes a big difference what part of Atlanta and what part of BR, makes a difference of hours..


Leave BR at 5 AM, eat lunch in Atlanta and be back to BR by 10 or so to jerk off and go to sleep. Wouldnt be difficult knowing $10mil is waiting on you

Exactly. You could also hit some golf courses and play a quick 9 holes a few times that you would've never played otherwise. You could definitely do this for 90 days and it not suck too much.

Yes. I would stop off at Priester’s Pecans and buy a chocolate pecan pie every day.

Yeah. The only way I could think not is if you were prone to blood clots.


Drive barefoot and make fists with your toes.

Point the feet straight down and hold. Then straight up and hold.


Honest answer: 90 days of driving sounds like paradise. I'd be more concerned with the shitty food

If you dont play slow as frick you easily could. Takes me 1-1.5 hours to play 9 by myself if the course isnt backed up

What about those of us who only sleep 3-5 hours a night?

I was out at 11:30ish last night and was wide awake at 4 am.

Do you do that every single night? Do you have to drive 14+ hours after you do so? You may be someone who would have a better shot at it, but I'd still make a big wager against you completing it if given the option.

There is tons of research on how lack of sleep inhibits reaction time, decision making and a ton of other factors.

I think it would actually be best to start the route at 6 pm and finish at 10 am. You miss the 5 o’clock traffic and probably don’t hit the morning traffic anywhere really.

Yes. Its really only a 14 hour round trip too if you're smart. I didnt say I would play 9 everyday. Some days i would take 1.5 hours out and play. Some of you act like playing 9 holes by yourself takes as long as the pros to play a full round of The Masters

That’s only about 3/4 of a year’s labor for the average American wage slave. Virtually nobody reading this would ever be in a position to say no to that. In fact, >99% would do it for $1 million.

Is a 90day supply of Percocet included?

I’d give it a shot no doubt, but my back might make me tap out. But I’d try.

Unless I've consumed a very large amount of high proof whiskey...yes

Been that way since I was a kid. Slept a lot on the weekends as a teenager but that's the only time I ever got any real sleep.
