DRINK4DANICA2008

Sunday marks DRINK4DANICA2008 (a party slash drinking game based on the Indy 500). We have a minimal budget but high hopes for our rag-tag IRL party. I decided to go with the "official" recipe for Donkey Punch. I had to go to the store and get two handles of rum today. We're expecting a medium-sized, high class (semi-alcoholic) crowd.





We're going to have to pick drivers drink based on their and then certain words/phrases/visual cues will also trigger drinking. Live twitter updates will appear in the box above but you can see all of the live party updates here. I created an image for the event using a picture from our White Trash party in 2006. You may be able to tell that we're doing our best "King of the Hill" pose. You may not be able to tell that I'm wearing jean shorts. That still pisses me off.





The game is based on My Name is Hurl (from the blog My Name is IRL) and drinking game (from the blog Indy Rant). Tentative game rules are listed below.



THE INDY 500 DRINKING GAME DRINK4DANICA

(bastard version of My name is Hurl)



1. Draw a driver - Drink 2 drinks if the driver is shown on camera, 1 drink if the drivers car is shown and chug an entire beer if the driver crashes.



2. Every lap that one of your co-drinker's driver leads is a lap that you drink.



3. Drink as a group when the following terms are mentioned: Any military word (i.e. "War", "Battle" or "Gunning"), "Marbles" (2x), "Halfshaft" (3x), "Catfight" (4x), "Lockstep", ""how we do it in a stock car", "debris", "Tony George", "Brian Barnhart" (2x), "Tony Stewart" (3x)



4. Also drink when: Another driver is asked about Danica! or Fisher Queen, Vision Racing co-owner Patrick Dempsey is mentioned (2x), Any Andretti other than Mario smiles, Scott Goodyear makes a joke

OCD Actual Conversation: Bruce Bowen is Gay

Apparently one of my friends has decided that Bruce Bowen is gay. It's actually pretty funny for me to imagine him with a hoop earring and some flamboyant clothing. The "bonghitters" mention is a reference to us getting smoked (pun somewhat intended) by the High Times softball team.

Bruce Bowen does not like these allegations
