Trivial Pursuit Game Was Created While Drunk.

“What’s the most popular cocktail in the U.S.? Do you know the answer, Harold?”

“How the hell would I know that!?”

“The martini.” The doctor replied.

“What card are you reading?” Harold asked.

“Remember playing the board game Trivial Pursuit?”

The Trivial Pursuit board game was first conceived on December 15, 1979, by two beer drinking Canadians, Chris Haney and Scott Abbott who created this world-famous board game. Created with the help of plenty of Carlsberg Beer.

Chris Haney and Scott Abbott spent 2 exhausting years thinking and writing up 6000 questions and answers for the first edition of the Trivial Pursuit game.

1200 of these board games were put together in Niagara-Of-Lake, Ontario, Canada in 1981. These games were sold in the spring of 1982.

Trivial Pursuit became popular immediately to the point where this board game sold 20 million copies in 1984! Thank you, Carlsberg Beer.

Other Trivial Pursuit Game Editions that were produced later…

– Sports

– TV Edition

– 1960’s

– 1980’s

– Baby Boomer

– Walt Disney

– Star Wars

– Lord Of the Rings

– Power Rangers (What!?)

Unfortunately, Chris Haney died by kidney and circulatory problems on May 31, 2010. Survived by his 2 wives and 3 children. Here’s a drink of Carlsberg Beer to you Chris.

Hasbro bought the board game Trivial Pursuit in 2008 for $80 million and is still going strong as the 7th most popular game of all time.

Shilly-Shally Drinking Game.

Shilly-Shally Drinking Game.

Introduction: 

Dr. Wetbrain constantly adds words to people talking to him too slowly. Welcome to his world of playing with Shilly-shally.

    Dr. Wetbrain

Merrian-Webster Dictionary defines ‘Shilly-Shally” as an Adverb.

1) in an irresolute, undecided, or hesitating manner.

2) to show hesitation or lack of decisiveness.

3) to waste time.

 

This is a quick, be on the ball, witty drinking game which you can play anywhere, anytime. To begin, you and your drinking friends must be beside a television, radio (maybe not a car radio while drinking and driving), smart phone, laptop or computer to be able to play this drinking game.

 

Play: 

Step 1

As mentioned previously this game can be played anywhere, anytime where someone is talking. Whether this speaking voice is funneled through a radio, new favorite television show, smart phone, a new movie, recorded lecture (not seen), or a group of friends where only one person is talking.

Notice how ‘new’ was noted on a few of these ‘voice’ speaking examples. An important moral component to this game is that we do not want previously watched cheating. Why cheat on simple fun drinking games anyways. Do not have to worry about a radio announcer, their speech will be always new.

  Step 2

Let us try some examples.

Example 1

Movie –

Bullet Train new trailer out. Brad Pitt shows his funny side as he dodges assassins - India Today

Brad Pitt. “I will always (er)….”. Right at that ‘er’ moment everyone playing must guess what his next word or phrase will be before he does say what is written for him on the script. You only have a few seconds to guess.

Guess examples:

– try

– be there

– love you

– kill kittens

– etc.

Example 2

Radio announcer. “Tragedy has hit the town of Cynthia. The culprits were in a ‘ummm’.” Right at that ‘ummm’ moment everyone must guess what his next word or phrase will be.

Guess examples:

– car

– truck

– frenzy

– tiff

– sexual rampage

– etc.

 

Step 3

The first right answer from the participants gets to appoint a drink, and how much to drink to whoever he chooses.

Sort of an addictive game. Pretty soon you find yourself filling-in with people’s hesitating speech everywhere.

Conclusion:

A way to look at this game is like when someone stutters you always want to verbally fill in the word he is trying to say before he finishes.

Have fun. Cheers!

Drinking Games With Cards – Drunk Driver.

Wetbrain Leave a comment

Introduction: 

Do not drive after playing this game. In fact, walking may even be a chore.

 

Preparation: 

Step # 1 

In a pyramid formation place, face down, 15 cards.

Placing one card face-down on the top row. Two cards on the 2nd row. Three on 3rd row. Four on 4th row and 5 cards on bottom row.

  Play: 

Step # 1

First player starts by verbally picking a color. Do you want red or black? He then picks a card from the bottom row and flips it over, face up.

Step # 2

If he is correct on his color decision. He continues to guess on the 4th row. Red or black? Flip his chosen card, face up. If he is correct on that one. Carry on to the 3rd row. And 2nd. And top row. Correct guessing on all 5 rows…. you win! Do not drink. Next player’s turn.

Step # 3

But if the player guessed wrong on any of the rows up. He drinks the total amount of rows he was able to get right. Plus, the one he screwed up on.

i.e. – If player guessed the proper color on the bottom 5th row and on the 4th row. But, guessed wrong on the 3rd row. He drinks 3 drinks.

If player guessed right on the bottom 5th row, all the way up to the 2nd row. But, wrong on the top first row. He drinks 5 drinks.

Step # 4

As soon as the player guesses wrong on any row. The faced-up cards that he picked, are replaced then with new cards from the deck, face down, on top of those picked. The player that lost, tries again.

Step # 5

The player keeps trying until he successful to drive all the way to the top.

Step # 6

It may sound like a heavy drinking game. It can be, depending on how many times you keep on guessing wrong. But with enough players, you would have enough time to let all those drinks settle before it’s your turn again. 

Simplify this game.

Instead of the same losing player continuing, just carry on to the next player. Red or black?

Note: If you keep winning at this ‘Drunk Driver’ game, good chance you will be the ‘designated driver’.

History Of Darts Drinking Game.

Wetbrain 2 Comments

Harold and Dr. Wetbrain play darts for drinks…. a lot. Usually when the useless cards are soaking wet with booze and always in Harold’s back yard, early in the morning. 7:15 am and the sun just started to lap up most of the hidden darkness of the summer morning.

Three empty bottles of cheap wine were lying on the crisp, morning dew which blanketed the un-mowed lawn. Half-closed dandelion blooms strewed everywhere.

The dart board is made from a 20-inch-thick, carefully chain-sawed old pine log. Throughout out summer as the pine slab got dry in the heat, the inner age rings started to crack. After some time, the old drunk cracks (Harold and Wetbrain) started using the aged wooden cracks as a scoring grid. Playing darts on this wooden slab worked out great. Harold and the doctor once used the back side of this pine slab. Unfortunately, Billy came over one day. The mooching little punk from next door came over to bum beer and practice his axe throwing skills.

Throwing his axe onto our carefully dried dart board. With deep gashes everywhere on the board, except in the middle, Billy wrecked one side of our precious dart board rendering it useless.

Once again, Billy was banned from Harold’s yard.

Now Harold and Dr. Wetbrain use the other (un-slashed) side of the dart board.

Harold kept losing at darts and taking his respective drinks. The doctor just kept taking drinks. Because he is…. Dr. Wetbrain, and he hates winning all the time. To him, winning at any drinking game is…. losing. “You don’t get to drink!”, he would yell out to anyone listening. Sometimes nobody was there.

Dr. Wetbrain pulled another bottle of wine out of the ice filled, galvanized wash tub. Filled both of their glasses and sat back down onto his old lawn chair. Eyes half-shut, the doctor looks at Harold who is sitting on his rickety wooden lawn chair next to him.

“You know, Harold?”, Doctor begins to speak.

Ten minutes later.

“You know, Harold?”, Dr. Wetbrain decided to continue.

“Darts started somewhere like (pauses) medieval times. During the time of kings, knights and Robin Hood. When these knights in tights became teachers of archery to their young soldiers, they would shorten some arrows and have the students throw them at the bottom of an empty wine barrel. Apparently, the soldiers took their shortened arrows with them to the local pub to show off their new skills. Also, to have fun with the newly found drinking game to be played with all the friends and wenches found at this pub. Serious darts never came into view until the end of the 1800s.”

“Harold…. did you know?”

“Harold?”

8 Best Free Drinking Game Apps.

Wetbrain Leave a comment

One day Dr. Wetbrain was playing with his new I-phone and was thinking what can I look up? Free drinking game apps, he thought. With Google search he was able to obtain and study on how each one of these game apps work. Many a drunk night went into this research. Dr. Wetbrain gives you in his opinion on the best free drinking game apps available. Let’s begin.

 

I Puke App Screenshot Image

Apparently, hours and hours of drinking went into developing this drinking game app with serious hangovers. I could relate. Research must be done. Note: No drunks were harmed in these experiments.

Fun with any number of players just start with putting in the names. Then each player one at a time will draw a card and has a choice between a dare or number of shots to drink. On the dares be afraid, very afraid. Just joking.

 

Picolo App

A very fun drinking game where anybody who sees it playing wants to join in automatically. Easy to play, easy to get the party going. No rules to remember also.

To play just add each player’s name, then answer questions and follow the instructions. The drink amount is included for each losing player.

 

The Kings Cup

This drinking game app is for the card game players. Great for getting the party started. Drink amount is dedicated.

 

Drunk Potato

Remember the kid’s game ‘Hot Potato’. This game is the same idea, but with a timer instead of burning your hands.

This drinking game is played on a cell phone. When the timer starts either answer the question which could be very personal or take the challenge which could be filthy and dirty… or not. When the timer runs out, who is holding the phone must have a drink. If phone holder does not answer the question or complete the challenge, they must drink 3 drinks! Next player please.

 

Drinkie

This app is designed for a I-pad and I-phone. Easy to play with all the trending drinking games segregated into 4 modes. Ridiculous, sexy, tipsy (get the party started), macho (sports like), girly (bachelorette party time).

Put in names and get personalized questions, challenges and drinks.

 

King Of Booze App

This is another drinking game app where there is a variety of dares are king or decide to have some sissy drinks, up to you. This is a game that will liven up boring people for drinking and laughing.

 

Never Have I Ever App

Intimate questions to answer. If you did the dirty deed that was questioned have a drink. If you do not want to answer, perhaps due to shame, take 3 drinks.

 

Drink Or Doom App

This fun drinking game app is made in a comic book design. Once the player chooses a character and puts in their name, they are ready to play. Very easy to play. When it is your turn, you get to choose between a challenge or a drink amount. A few of the challenges may be ‘R’ rated with mild violence and nudity.Drink Or Doom: Drinking game by Boris Mikic

 

After 8 days of getting drunk with his friends for research purposes only. Dr. Wetbrain was able to deduce which free drinking game apps are the best. Now it’s time for home for a rest.
