Jothar, Sorry to burst your figurative bubble, but getting drunk is indeed a religious obligation for us Yidden. As stated in Shulchan Aruch, Rambam, Mishna Brura, and numerous numerous Seforim HaKedoshim – not to even mention a befeirush Gemorah. And as openly and happily practiced by the Gedolim shlita and zt”l.
And judging from what I’ve seen thus far throughout this vast city, both indoors and outdoors, our Acheinu Bnei Yisroel are fulfilling this Mitzvah with great detail!
Ah Freilichen Purim!
