  • Man of the Century


    A few months ago we posted a video of a groom and his best man splitting a fifth of Jack Daniels hours before the wedding. Though everyone there seemed impressed, nobody really looked surprised. I recently caught up with videographer Adam Henderson to find out how the wedding went, and why we never got any video.

    The question on everybody's mind - how mad was she?
    She was pretty mad. She didn't see Ryan, the groom, all day. By the time we were at the reception, he sobered up enough to not make a complete ass out of himself.

    How did the wedding go?
    It was interesting. Ryan had trouble walking down the aisle. He kept saying hi to people sitting in the crowd. Chris, the other guy drinking, fell asleep during the ceremony and fell over. He was one of the groomsmen.

    How many people witnessed this?
    It was relatively small, no more than 75 people. When Chris fell, his Dad helped him up and carried him out of the chapel where he threw up a few times. He came back in 5 minutes later yelling, "Thank you everyone for your support!"

    Is there any video of this?
    Yeah, but you don't see Chris leave. All you see is Ryan looking really happy. Nothing funny at all.

    Are they still together?
    Yes. The wedding was a year ago, and they're happily married.

    Shots?
    No thanks.


    Thanks for taking the time for an interview Adam. You, Ryan, Chris, Mrs. Ryan, Ryan's parents, and everyone else who was there is truly the Man of the Century!

    CollegeHumor isn't just the #1 resource online for college debauchery; we also sponsor a nation-wide invention contest for kids between 6 and 10 years old. The submissions are in and we've selected six nominees, now it's time for you guys to pick a winner. The inventor that receives the most votes will receive a one million dollar grant to help make his dream a reality. In addition, he (or she, I guess) will receive a driver's license at the age of 13.

    And the nominees are...

  • Man of the Century


    Recently, the world lost visionary Momofuku Ando. You may not recognize his name, but you've given tens and maybe even hundreds of cents to his company. Ando was the inventor of Ramen noodles, and the founder of Nissin Foods.

    We all come from different walks of life, but at some point everybody has to make a meal out of Ramen. With the possible exception of whoever invented bongs and John Belushi, nobody has contributed more to the college experience than Momofuku.

    Today, we say goodbye to a great man. I have never met Momofuku, and most of the information about him online is in Japanese. Still, I imagine his life was as varied as the flavor packets that came with his noodles. Ando was probably complex, like the taste of Taiwan Roast Pork. He probably ran his business with an iron fist, but with his family still found time to be as sweet as the taste of Sukiyaki Udon. Also he was oily and beefy, like just about every ramen.

    Though many consider instant ramen noodles unhealthy, Ando lived to be 96 years old. He is said to have eaten chicken ramen almost everyday, including the last day of his life. Momofuku, you are the MAN OF THE CENTURY.
