Is Bill Murray a big drinker?
Bill Murray insists he isn’t an alcoholic because he hasn’t found a nice enough drink. The ‘Ghostbusters’ star fears his love of booze may have driven him to alcoholism at one point in his career but fortunately he isn’t overly fond of a particular beverage and prefers to mix up a bit.
He told The Daily Telegraph newspaper: I like alcohol but I don’t have a favorite drink, which is probably why I’m not an alcoholic. If I had a favorite I’d probably be a drunk. I like to have different drinks. Last night I was drinking something with rum in it.
The Emmy award-winning actor, who also co-owns Caddyshack Restaurant in Florida, with the slogan ‘Eat Drink and Be Murray’ – puts his success down to a piece of advice he received in his early life.
