The only time I ever fell off whilst drunk was the night before my 18th birthday. I don't remember what happened but I left my mate's flat at about 3am and woke up half a mile down the road, in the gutter at 4am. Picked myself and rode home OK.
My mum came into my bedroom in the morning, to wish me happy birthday. imagine her dismay to see me in bed, fully, clothed, with vomit on and around my head and hair. Adding to the general ambience was a damp patch in the middle of the carpet that stank strongly of alcoholic urine.
Bright times.
I am much more grown up these days - I have learned to ride drunk and stay on my bike.
