Metropolis Car Bomb

This is insane, I love Irish Car Bombs but damn this takes it to the next leave. you have to watch this video. The video is sideways in the begining but it does get better.

So I wonder how much does one of those car bombs cost and when I started watching it I couldn’t believe that guy was going to drink that entire thing. I did like the way it was documented although at times I wanted the guy holding the camera to shut up. I need to find out where they sale a 1 gallon Guinness cup that thing looked awesome.

Boat Race / Line Chug

BeerFest Line Chug

Boat Race, also known as “Line Chug” is without a doubt the ‘purest’ drinking game. Unlike the other most popular drinking games, this one involves simply chugging as fast as you can and trying to help your team finish before your opponents. The most important thing about chugging is your mindset. Many people believe that they are simply incapable of chugging but this is not true.

The trick here is very simple: ACCEPT that chugging will be uncomfortable and simply push through it anyway. Even the fastest chuggers agree that it doesn’t really feel great going down but the difference between boat race glory and boat race shame depends entirely on sacrificing your body for the team. So next time, open your throat and go to town. If all else fails, practice and get used to the feeling of taking in a lot of liquid at once.

The other important thing to to AVOID SPILLING. Time is of the essence but make sure you don’t lose any liquid or you will be severely punished.

Flip Cup

Flip Cup
Flip Cup is another commonly played game at college campuses and is oftentimes favored over beer pong for its easy setup and quick playing time. Since this is just Boat Race with a small twist, I’m assuming you’ve got your chugging skills handled and only need tips on how to flip. This is where most people let their teams down by being unco-ordinated but it’s actually incredibly simple to master this technique.

Do NOT flip the cup high and hard into the air like most people do. Instead, when the edge of the cup is over the lip of the table, simply pull it up and away from the table smoothly with your fingers at about a 45 degree angle. Usually this will cause the cup to roll forward onto its lip and then settle on the table having completed its required rotation. Since the cup has such a wide top you have a lot of room for error.

Edward Forty Hands - 80 Oz to Freedom

Edward Fortyhands

Edward Fortyhands is a punishing game where some unlucky soul (perhaps you?) has two 40oz bottles of malt liquor ruthlessly taped to both hands. The point of the game, in essence, is that you have to drink at least one bottle before you can do anything (ie. urinate, slap whoever put you up to this square in the face). The only tip I can give you for this one is to finish one of the 40s as fast as you can, then you can take your time with the other one.

The Lake House Trip

And here we go…

My family and I were invited up to our friends’ lake house.  It was going to be a beautiful weekend so why not.  We get there unload the car, got into the swimsuits, put the sun block on and away we go.  Now, there were 95 steps down to the boat house from the house.  The reason I know that is because I carried a cooler that had 2 cases of beer, soda, fruit, ice and everything else we needed so I wouldn’t have to go back up.  Get down to the boat house set the cooler down open a beer and now its time to relax.  The kids all start swimming and the adults start drinking.  There were some that didn’t drink so they could watch the kids.  Now on to the relaxing, yeah right.  All the beer was gone within 3 hrs, BUT there was a shit load of liquor.  And now the fun begins… now the courage juice is starting to kick in and I am feeling stupid.  We were doing flips off the dock, belly flops, you know the normal stuff.  Then I look up, the boat house is two stories high with the water around 15 ft deep.  HELL YEAH!!!!!!  So I was having fun and so was everyone else because I became there personal entertainment.   I get out and sit down for some food when someone has the great idea of “lets go wakeboarding”.  The next thing I knew is my hand was up in the air over my head.  I don’t know how it got there, no one lifted it up, it was just up there.  My hand was shouting out ME, ME but in my mind when I saw what it had just done I was shouting NO, NO!!!!  Well, now I had to because I cant just back down.  That and my son was looking at me like I was the worlds coolest dad for being able to wakeboard.  The thing is, I can’t.  I was handed a vest and the board.  What happened from that point on just kept getting worse.  The board had size 10 boots, I have size 13 feet, “We can get them to fit”, my buddy tells me.  It took 5 min and 2 people to get one foot in.  I am sure you can figure out how the other one went.  Now that my toes are purple and everyone is in tears, time to shred.  They tell me that the best way to start is from seating on the dock with the board in the water.  OK!!!!!!!!!   I got up when he took off but I also had splinters sticking out of my ass because I didn’t stand up fast enough.  I also notice that I was standing just like I was wearing a pair of skies, that would be the wrong way.  Just then the edge griped the water and down I went, face first.  SLAP!!!!!!!  You know how they say to let go of the rope, well I missed that part.  I was being tossed around and getting beat down because of that.  OH that, and because the damn board wouldn’t come off of my feet.  I let go, and when they stopped laughing and could speak, they told me that looked like it hurt…  NO SHIT!!!!!!!!  But I had to redeem my self, ok lets go one more time.  This time I started in the water, which is what I should have done the first time.  I got up on the 5th try.  I was doing good and had the great idea of lets jump the wake.  My son tells me that I was about 8 ft in the air.  That is nice because it felt like I was about 30 ft in the air when I hit the water.  This time I let go of the rope.  That was the end of my wakeboarding carrier.  I wiped out near the dock so I just floated over.  I needed help getting out of the water because of the damn board.  When I am out and setting on the dock the next FUN is trying to get this thing off my feet.  I hope on to the dock while someone pulls.  Smack!!!!!!!!  Out comes one foot and someone goes in the water.  We got the other one off some what the same way.  I stand up and get ready to take the vest off when I see that someone is holding a bottle of oil.  That’s messed up… that’s all I will say about that.  When I get the vest off someone tells me that I have a perfect line down my face, some what pink on one side and RED on the other.   Needless to say that it was time for a drink or three.  As everyone proceeded to tell me that they haven’t laugh that hard in a long time, I couldn’t help but think that I haven’t hurt that much in a long time.  From that moment on I was asked over and over if I would come back to the lake with them every weekend.

Dark Side of the Moon

Dark side of the Moon this was referred to me by Pete who left a comment on my Dirty Hoe post. I thought the name was awesome mainly because I’m a huge Pink Floyd fan. My wife loves Blue Moon and everyone loves Guinness so we made it a point to try this drink as soon as we can. We asked for it at the local pub and they were not familiar with the name, the waitress advised me that in some places it is called a “Blue and Black” i think Dark Side of the Moon is better. This is a great beer sits heavy in the stomach, it has the taste of a Guinness when to drink it and a after taste of a Blue Moon. It’s a great mix and something worth trying.
