My friend who weighs maybe 20 pounds lighter, but drinks much less often, consumed the same amount over the same period of time at a Flames game and ended up with a 24 hour suspension for blowing 0.10 and then 0.08.

I would gather that the main reason for those 'just one drink' style ads is that quite concievably a light, non-regular drinker could get to 0.05 on one drink depending on a variety of factors. Also another reason for those ads is that MADD is really a temperance movement and if they had their druthers no one would have any drinks, driving or not, but that's for another thread.
I don't think the Hitmen use as much heroin in their beer batches as the Flames do.....
