While at the star-studded Metal Masters 2 clinic (which you can still stream right here), which took place a few days before the Big Four concert at Yankee Stadium, Black Label Society frontman Zakk Wylde caught up with some of the performers for exclusive interviews. In this installment of our Zakk Wylde takeover, he asks “Who would win a drinking contest, Babe Ruth or Mickey Mantle?” Check out what Slayer’s Kerry King, Megadeth’s David Ellefson, drummer extraordinaire Mike Portnoy, Anthrax’s Joey Belladonna, Scott Ian, and Rob Caggiano, DJ Lady Starlight, and Eddie Trunk have to say.

    I imagine The Boss, who “Fears No Beer” could have run with the big dogs back in the day. Hell, hes been sober for 2+ years now, and most likely could still hang with the best of em! Thou Shalt Not Spilith Thy Beer! †SDMF†GI/FD†TBLO†

    I’d go with Babe Ruth … but it’s like choosing who would win between Godzilla and King Kong :)

    Still though .. nice job Master Zakk :)

  • JboxJim

    Damn near impossible question, two dude’s who loved the sauce something fierce.

  • BadAss4life67

  • Dstegner119

    no doubt it’s a close tie. BUT anyone who put a cabbage leaf under his cap to keep cool during the game was a sauce master!

  • Weslley J.F.

    I vote for Mickey, but that is a hard decision lol. Great intreview.

  • Prometh

    I have no facts to back this up, but symbolically speaking, I’d have to go with Micky Mantle.

    If Z ever decides to quit playing the  guitar, he will always have a job as  an interviewer lol .. always fun listening to him asking others questions.

  • SDMF_Bumble

    Gotta’ love the boss’ interviewing style. Never a dull moment.

  • Jeremy

    Zakk was goin for Mantle!

    Well, I think the BABE was the man of the hour, he pulled up to the bar, and frequented the
    liquor store more.  Although, Mick had a good habit…
    I’m sticking with Mr. Ruth..

  • Brian Eisinger

    Babe Ruth! Look where he’s from? I think that sums it up with his size!

  • Brian Eisinger

    He was a tank!

  • Thuzzel

    Awesome interview, I’m leaning towards the Babe.

    definitely the Babe would out drink them all!!!

  • Fluk

    The babe definitely would ! Awesome interview by the way

  • http://www.facebook.com/jlhaggard Jamie Lee Haggard

    I’m not sure who’d win between babe n mantle  but I KNOWS Zakk would put them both under the table!!!!

  • http://twitter.com/Donniecall Don Call

    Zakk hilarious as usual. Babe all the way!!!

  • MarshallBLS

    It’s a pity that Zakk doesn’t drink anymore. We’d put every single guy under the table in such a contest. 

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000470736862 Arizona Darkblade

    Now why is that such a topic of interest. The three guys together look like they’ve seen the long tooth in drinking and drugging. Can they even think rationally to reply? …I wonder, is this the translation of appreciation for sports to metalheads? =0(. I’m glad Zakk gave up the sauce. Just hope he’s sober in all ways, including steroids.

  • SANCH0

    Awesome I think Babe Ruth Has it though for sure

  • Skiangel9970

    babe ruth no doubt about it

  • C_Biz

    I agree with Zakk – the wouldn’t be a winner in a contest like that!
