The the holiday drinking season comes to a climax on New Year’s Eve, the night when nearly everyone goes out, even those who don’t regularly enjoy a drink. That leads, inevitably, to a whole lot of hangovers (if you’re looking for some help, we’ve got some info!). As we already looked at the states who were drinking the most during the holidays, we wondered which states were home to the most folks who overdid it. We used Google Trends to gauge search interest for “hangover” across the United States, around New Year’s Eve. While many of the heavily populated states do make a strong showing, we want to note that Google does normalize the data to account for population.
