    Three Sheets One of Top 5 Television Shows

    Cool'ch Magazine names "Three Sheets" as one of the Top 5 Shows on TV.To celebrate the occasion, Zane sits down for an interview.

    How did Zane get Three Sheets, quite possibly the best job in the world?
    He auditioned for a host position for a Food Network show about a restaurant. When he got there, everyone laughed. "What?" "This isn't for the host of the show, it's for the person who's seating people." Then they told him about "Three Sheets":  "You travel around and learn about drinking."  Perfect fit.

    Prior to hosting "Three Sheets" Zane was more a "few beers with friends once or twice a week" kind of guy (although college was a different story), but now?  "Umm…six-pack an hour."  Even when he's not necessarily in the mood to drink, duty calls.

    Any alcohol he won't drink?
    "I have not refused one yet."  Although he has refused a second drink from a guy in Poland trying to ply him with numerous shots of 190 proof vodka which he insisted on packing in a doggy bag for the road.

    Sketchiest situation as a result of the show?
    Oddly enough, that would be Barcelona. During a camera set up, a guy simply walked up and grabbed the camera (worth about $80,000) and ran away.The camera and sound guys grabbed the camera while Zane grabbed the thief, who sputtered, “I’m just kidding, I’m just kidding!” Zane let him go, but the guy  then body slammed the producer to the ground!  Zane went to pull the guy off the producer, and then the guy's friend went after Zane…

    Morale of the story: You're asking for trouble if you are out when the bars are closing.

    Most pointless alcohol?
    Booze made from Brussels sprouts. Clearly a gimmick. Also,  flavored beers. Sweet and yet bitter and…just nothing “beer” about it.  Both can be found in Belgium.  Most pointless beer? Red Stripe.


    And if he was on Death Row, his last drink would be…

    Irish Car Bombs. Jameson.
