Sport: Crew/Rowing

Rules:

  1. Teams break races up into 250 meter sectons. The first and last 250 meters are normally sprints. The rules of this game are simple. During these sprints DRINK. Chug your beer/drink until your team hits the first 250 meter boey and then after the last 250 boey and the finish line.
  2. In between for the rest of the race every 250 meters if your team is not the first boat to hit the mark yell out your team’s country and drink.
  3. At the end of race. Count how many boat lengths your team was from the winner. For each boat length, take a shot.
  4. If the bowman takes a bad stroke and is catapulted out of the boat, everybody finishes the nearest bottle of liquor. (At the olympic level this is a rare occurrence and well worth celebrating)

Optional Rules:

  1. When they show a shot of the bow numbers ‘neck and neck’ if your team’s number isn’t in the shot. Drink.
  2. If you notice any crabs/bad strokes. Drink. If you don’t know what a crab/bab stroke looks like. Drink.
  3. If the camera shows a coxswain who’s of the opposite sex of the rowers. Everyone Drink.
  4. If a coxswain is wearing anything funky (viking horns, cone megaphone, sequin scarf). Drink.
  5. If your team’s boat is the only one in the shot. Drink.
