How do we know he consumed 8 alcoholic beverages ONBOARD? He could have had 3 doubles at the airport and 2 on the plane (or whatever combo).
As a Flight Attendant, (especially on a Red-eye when most people are sleeping) most of us are acutely aware when someone drinks to excess. 8 is quite a large number to be consumed in a 5 hour period. And as FAs working together, we usually KNOW what is going on and who is drinking.
Don't be so quick to Judge. I for one will "suggest" that this man had a "few" prior to boarding. Also, its quite probable that he "doesn't fly well" and may have consumed a "pill" to help him sleep even better

You are absolutely right, he may have drank a pint of the hard-stuff even before he boarded, or he may even have combined prescription or nonprescription drugs with all of that. Who really knows... it will have to be up the flight crews and gate agents to recognize this form of behavior, and act accordingly.
