Agreed! 

In a pub in England, to get pissed means to get drunk. Right, Rob?   :-)

In that case, it would be a drinking contest. Much better imagery!

So does anyone wonder where the phrase came from anyhow?  Were there such 
contests in the distant past?  Was it an ancient Greek olympic event? 
What?   Certainly seems like good material for Monty Python.
