A family of Dolphins fans have a football tradition of taking a shot of tequila after every Miami Dolphins touchdown on Sunday’s.

But on Sunday, that tradition was put to the test as the Dolphins up a historic 70 points against the Miami Dolphins. If you’re doing the math at home, that means this group of people did 10 – yes TEN – shots of tequila in a three and a half hour span.
