Default car not starting...

well yesterday i was leaving the bar and when i went to start my car it was slow and slugish but started so i was like coool. ANd im like f... it im hungry ima go to tacobell. so i order the food whoopty whoo and the car shuts off completely so we end up pushing the car out the driveway and down a hill so i could pop start it but the car wouldnt start and this hill is super long and kinda steep. i tried about 10 to pop it wouldnt start. it started real fast and shut out at attemp #5 but that was it the rest were nothing... So yeah 4 of us ended up pushed my drunk for about half a mile LOL.

gttp wat could the problem be.

battery is drained so im guessing the alternator correct?

Charge or replace the battery and then drive the car to an auto parts store to have the alternator tested.

yes you need to charge the battery and check the alternator, but to be sure I would check the main relay and the distributor as well.
