Let's just say the Mos Eisley Cantina, located as it is in that wretched hive of scum and villainy, isn't big on designated drivers. So when smugglers, bounty hunters and freighter pilots gather there to guzzle strong hooch and arrange their illegal doings, no one is Breathalyzing them when they leave, and more than one pilot probably is three sheets to the Tatooine wind.

In a new video mashup put together by OneMinuteGalactica, scenes from various Star Wars movies mix with a voiceover from the 1980s "Friends Don't Let Friends Drive Drunk" public-service announcement series.

It's amazing Han Solo was able to shoot straight at Greedo, considering the effect those cantina cocktails had on his piloting skills. Poor Chewie and Threepio really should've called SoberCab.
