Posted by: Lou Pickney on December 4, 2003 09:45 PMbeer caused WWI... the dude that assasinated archduke, franz ferdinand, went to a bar and got drunk. the bar he went to was very far away from where he originally planned on assasinating him at. Since the archduke's motorcade took this alternate route and passed the assasinators bar, the beer filled drunken asassinator went outside at first sight of the motorcade and shot the archduke... This incident started WWI

According to this Wikipedia article ( http://tinyurl.com/jp4x4 ), Gavrilo Princip was at "a nearby shop for a cheese sandwich." The wiki isn't perfect, but nowhere have I read that Princip was drunk at the time of the shooting.
In any event, I wouldn't blame beer or bullets for WWI. I'd blame people.
