How To Play: This game is stupid, period. However, a friend of ours taught it to us one evening and, if memory serves me correctly, we may have actually enjoyed ourselves. All you need is a bottle of your favorite booze and a vivid imagination. If I were playing with you and I was to start, I might say something like... "Once upon a time in the village of perpetual gas I ran across a kindly old gentleman who, as it turns out, was also a hat blocker/ gymnast. Besides his rather unusual occupation he seemed like a nice enough chap and I decided to take him up on his offer to spend the afternoon at the local pub watching his brother's polka band play their Peter Frampton tribute set. As we set off to what he described as his "favorite booth this side of 'Pete's House of Pig'" I noticed a small boy in a lavender coon skin hat. It was at that moment he produced a bottle from his jacket, poured me a shot, and yelled "To Eleanor Rooservelt and her heavenly rear end." So I drank it." At this point everyone playing would have a shot with me. All you do is tell a dumb story and end it by saying, " So (he or she) poured me a shot..... So I drank it." As long as the story ends in this manner then it's acceptable, no matter how ridiculous the story is. The tale can last no longer than five minutes. I told you it was stupid, but we had fun, I think.
