I have had personal experience with a variant of this phrase, and I believe the origin is very similar. Peaches are very sweet when they fall to the ground. Very sweet fruit in contact with all the 'wild' yeasts present on the ground begins to ferment very quickly and continues until virtually all the fruit has finished fermenting. In the Okanagan Valley in Canada, my Grandfather used to say; "goofy as a deadfallen jaybird" when the bluejays would stagger over to the well for a drink of water... (Eating cherry deadfall being thirsty work)...Gramma could usually catch the first one, but, sometimes we had to 'fish' them out with a net on a looong bamboo before covering the well with a steel-wire grid. I'm betting your boars were in a similar 'condition'. Also, I'll bet boars were a lot tougher to Dodge than a drunk jaybird!!!
