So you think you can drink? There's an easy way to separate the men from the boys...
THE 100-BEER WEEKEND
I've tried it 3 times, with 2 successes and 1 failure (I only reached 87).
The rules are simple: a "beer" refers to one container of said beverage, minimum volume 12 fl. oz. You have from 5 pm Friday to midnight at the end of Sunday - 55 hours to drink 100 beers.
Though beers purchased and consumed at a bar count, the money-conscious drinker will realize it's cheaper to buy 100 beers at the liquor store and shove them all in a big fridge beforehand. Also, my experience shows that attempting to leave your residence and go anywhere becomes difficult after the first few dozen beers.
Hint: get a big head start Friday night. Don't pass out for the night until you've got at least 50 beers under your belt. It makes Saturday and Sunday easier.
Some people feel the 100-beer weekend is too extreme. Perhaps it is. For those with only a couple of hours to spare, here's another one:
THE CENTURY CLUB
You'll need about 8 or 9 beers, a shot glass, a watch or clock with a second hand, and 100 minutes.
Drink one shot of beer
exactly every 60 seconds, until you have reached 100 shots.
I've tried this twice and never reached 100. But then again, I did it as a drinking game with friends; I got into the 80s and was the last man standing both times.
Here's why it a killer: by putting small amounts of alcohol into your body at carefully timed intervals, you get drunker faster. And remember, it's more than it sounds like: 8 beers in under 2 hours. Most people can make it to around 50, and then the weaker drinkers start falling away.
You lose whenever you can't take the next shot on time for any reason. So you'll want to be near a lavatory, and time your runs to fulfill nature's call carefully. The tenacious competitor will even rehearse his bathroom runs in advance, to be sure he can conduct sufficient business in the time allotted.
Note that these activities can be considered "drinking games" in the same way that you could call the scaling of K2 "a small hike in the mountains". I've done these things, but then again I was an
abso-fucking-lutely insane alcoholic. Try them if you want, but consider yourself warned.
I've never attempted anything like these two drinking games you mentioned but I have done a keg-stand for 25 seconds before. That nearly killed me, I can't imagine playing these.
