Then again, you would need to be drunk to think signing up for Obamacare is a good idea.

A contract is voidable if one party was drunk when signing it.

Quote
Voidable contracts are valid agreements, but one or both of the parties to the contract can void the contract at any time. As a result, you may not be able to enforce a voidable contract:

    Contracts entered into when one party was a minor. (The law often treats minors as though they do not have the capacity to enter a contract. As a result, a minor can walk away from a contract at any time.)
    Contracts where one party was forced or tricked into entering it.
    Contracts entered when one party was incapacitated (drunk, insane, delusional).

It may also be illegal to coerce someone into signing a contract by knowingly and willfully helping them become impaired before signing.

This is also a risk for the bartender to get fired or worse:
