Can anyone tell me what the difference, if any, in alcohol content in these 3? I can drink about 6 cans and feel good, after 2 bottles I wanna throw up, but after 1 pilsner I am toasted...Bud Light if it matters...

Draft - Bottle - Can.
Can only if you are desperate.

The alcohol content is the same in all of them.
The different methods of storage, however, does affect the taste quite a bit. In general, draft (or kegs) tastes best, followed by bottles, and then cans.
If you are drinking Bud Light, however, it will probably taste horrible no matter what form you drink it in.
The taste changes because the quality changes based on the materials used to store the beer. There is more to getting drunk than pure alcohol content: if you have the same amount of alcohol from vodka as you do from beer as you do from wine, you will get three very different kinds of drunk. There are a lot of subtleties that go into creating alcoholic beverages, including the organic material used to create it. This is why beer-drunk is different than vodka-drunk. You can have a high tolerance for one and not the other.
But quality can vary between brands of the same type of alcohol, or between containers of the same brand if the containers are different. This can cause you to be differently affected by the alcohol depending on what container you get it from.

If you are drinking six cans of beer you are drinking more than you should.
Draft beer is usually the best because it is the freshest. Bottled should stay fresh longer than cans.
Draft usually doesn't contain preservatives, while both bottled and canned do. Preservatives are impurities. The impurities are what will make you sick. Beer most likely won't give you an alcohol overdose, but you can get drunk and sick from it.
In any drinking situation it is endurance, not speed that counts. And prefer quality over quantity. Drinking to get drunk is always a bad idea.

There is no difference between bottle/can/draft but there are different contents between brands of beer. If you are sticking with Bud Light, maybe there is a difference in the carbonation levels that is affecting how you feel.

are all the sizes the same? usually can and bottle are 12 ounces while drafts are 16 ounces. naturally drafts will mess you up faster on a one to one ratio. as far as the difference between can and bottle, there is no difference in alcohol content, but there is a taste difference. some people notice it more than others..

Draft could be a higher alcohol content.
Can and bottle are the same, based on the beer itself.
Standard is about 5% alcohol, although it can get at high as 10%

The alcohol content of beer doesn't vary that much. It's probably more the spped at which you drink it -- the cans more slowly, the bottles or pint glass more quickly.
