Best Answer

When consuming high amounts of alcohol, specifically in a short span of time, the alcohol can shut down a portion of the brain, which deals with the creation of new memories. This allows and causes the drinker to be able to do things and participate in events without being able to retain or create any new memories of what happened while they were drunk.
