Well, it’s a zombie thread, so it’s zombie Ramis speaking.

Salt.  
Yes, yes. The stories about the rampant cocaine use on that set are infamous. It simply doesn’t play for me. He was being goofy and trying to get into her pants and that’s all and you know what it- it worked !

No! We have to believe the drive-by one-post wonder who can’t capitalize or spell. He **must** be right!

It’s weird seeing a post that you started, but don’t remember ever posting. It’s even weirder how some people reason that it was cocaine because some of the actors did cocaine off camera. I wasn’t aware of that little known rule of acting. If you do it offstage, you have to find a way to do it in front of the cameras too. :rolleyes:

Since I don’t remember posting this I’m going to answer as if it were someone else posting. Of course it was salt! Ty was a goofy character, and mixing up the order and procedure of a tequila shot is something that is totally in line with his character. There was never anything in the movie to indicate he was a coke head.
