Assholes Finish First [Abridged, Audiobook] [Audio CD]

Tucker Max (Author, Reader)

Book Description

Publication Date: September 28, 2010

The #1 New York Times bestselling author of I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell and groundbreaking inventor of the “fratire” genre delivers his highly anticipated collection of 100% true, 100% exclusive stories of comically perverse excess.

Displaying a combination of keen intellect, mischievous humor, and relentless sex appeal, Tucker Max’s true first person accounts of his sexual and drunken exploits transport listeners into his comical, perverse, and often surreal world. And his fans have responded in droves. With his book I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell selling more than 1.2 million copies and spending more than 150 weeks on the bestselling list (and counting), not to mention the movie of the same name released on DVD in January 2010, there’s a clear indication that fans can’t resist raunchy tales of sex, booze, and mayhem from the leader in “fratire.”

In Assholes Finish First, Tucker contributes to humanity by sharing his “highly entertaining and thoroughly reprehensible” ( The New York Times ) adventures—where he gets excessively drunk at inappropriate times, disregards social norms, indulges every whim, ignores the consequences of his actions, mocks idiots and posers, and sleeps with more women than is safe or reasonable—in these new stories, not available anywhere else.

Funny, wildly entertaining, and unbelievably inappropriate, Assholes Finish First is an irresistible, debauchery-filled romp, told by a man with no regrets, and who remains dedicated to living life on his own terms.

1.0 out of 5 stars SO DISAPPOINTING!!!, October 24, 2010

I was a huge fan of the last book, I've read it 3 or 4 times. It was hilarious. But this book was such a let down. It only had a couple good stories and the rest were the kind of boring regular stories that everyone has. Most of these stories aren't even good enough to tell a couple friends over a few beers let alone put in a book. Instead of telling hilarious stories Tucker has chosen to tell a bunch of average stories trying to stress how much tail he gets and how great he thinks he is. He really over does it trying to stress that point. And most of the stories happened before the last book even came out which leads me to believe that these are just the stories that weren't good enough for the last book. This book was almost as bad as the his movie, which if you were lucky enough to have not seen it was aweful. The movie was one long boring chick flick about friendship and understanding.

Seriously, in one story a girl starts out cool but then gets crazy and ends with her throwing an ipod at him...that's it. Or some virgins want him to be their first and he slept with another midget. There wasn't any actual stories behind these subjects, just him saying that he did this stuff. There are only two good stories in this book, the rest is just some sad and creepy older guy trying to make the younger kids think he's still cool. Tucker started a new genre then became the Carson Daily of it. He took something great and made it suck just like Carson did with music videos.

So save yourself the time and money and skip this book, just re-read the last one.

Hoped for something funny. Makes Dane Cook look like Louis CK. Unbelievably bad storytelling, topped with annoying self affirmations every other sentence. Think american psycho starring stuart smalley.

This book was a huge dissapointment. I really enjoyed IHTSBIH, but this book pales in comparison. Tucker Max seems to have bought into his own "celebrity" and it's quite annoying. "I AM TUCKER MAX!!!"...how many times do I have to read this line in all caps?!? He shouts so much during this book because he has so little new to say. What we have here folks is a one hit wonder. Do not bother with this one unless someone gives it to you for free and even then you probably will want your money back.
