After watching the Bucs smother the Eagles, and the ensuing Sportscenter, I flipped past the Bravo channel. It was as though I had , and stumbled upon the ultimate drinking game.
What to watch: Take in one Monday Night Football game, followed by one episode of Queer Eye For the Straight Guy. If four hours is too much television, switch to Queer Eye at halftime; the diehard football fans can still watch the fourth quarter.
What do drink: Go for maximum irony! Martini's and Mike's Hard Lemonade during the game, chased by American Mega-Brew during QE.
How to play: During the game, everyone drinks when any of these things happen:
A fumble or interception occurs.
A player celebrates after a touchdown, first down, or sack.
John Madden yells "Boom!"
Al Michaels does a Howard Cosell impression.
Madden & Michaels use Madden NFL 2004 to illustrate something
Game break with Lisa Guerrero.
ABC promotes non-sports programming. Drink twice if you watch said programming.
Telestrator is used. Drink twice if it's not football-related.
A ref explains a long and convoluted ruling.
Madden engages in a soliloquiy on some completely offbeat topic.
Other causes for drinking:
If anyone watching says "Are you ready for some football", they finish the bottle.
During an challenged call, all partiers must chug whenever the camera shows the ref's ass.
When the game's over, flip to Queer Eye. Have each person in the room pick one of the Fab Five. You drink when your guy does one of these.
Uses any of the following words:
"edgy"
"hip"
"vintage"
"authentic"
Mentions a product by name.
Touches the straight Guy below the belt.
Jokes about getting with the straight Guy.
Throws something in the trash.
Speaks in a language other than English.
Hits on another member of the Fab Five.
Comments on the Guy's dirty underwear. Drink twice if it's a jock strap.
Claims the Guy will be getting some after the makeover.
Other causes for drinking:
If anyone watching starts humming the Queer Eye theme song, they finish the bottle.
Lightning round: everyone drinks each time a Guy's friend says "wow" or "oh my God!" after seeing his made-over clothes, hair, or apartment.
