I've decided that we will work with teams of four. Each team will select a team name and theme. For instance; Pro-Wrestlers of the 80s, Cowboys (cuz i know you all have the gear), Indians, Rodeo Clowns, Women, Zombies etc... I want people to get creative, there will be points awarded to the best team costumes. Since this is going to involve large quantities of beer, these games will require kegs. Hopefully I can strike up a good deal with Judy at the Hoot and everyone can just pitch in. Not sure how much is going to be enough? We will error on the side of too much that is for sure.
Points
Points will be awarded after each event. If there are 8 teams, the first place team gets 8 pts, the second place team gets 7 pts, third gets 6 points and so on. Most points at the end of all events takes home the hardware. Like stated earlier there will be points awarded to best costume, so get with it. Because you know I'll be looking dead sexy!
Events
All events will be played single elimination tournament style.
1) Boat Race - Basically everyone lines up with beers, first person drinks his beer, sets it down, then the next person and so on down the line. Until the team drinks all four of their glasses.
2) Tippy Cup - a.k.a. Flip Cup, Tip Cup, Flippy Cup... blah blah blah you know what I'm talking about. Everybody lines up with a cup of beer, first person drinks his beer, sets on edge of table, flips cup over and then the next team member does the same thing until all four have finished. Two teams at a time.
3) Barrel Race - This event takes three people. One person standing on a barrel and the other two are supporting him from the ground. The person on the barrel with walk, logger style, on top of the barrel down to the cup of beer, all three drink a beer and return to the starting line without putting a foot on the ground. The other two are allowed to do anything to keep him off the ground other than carry him to the beer and back. This is a timed event. Never seen this before but I think I'm on to something...
Kind of like this, except the barrel will be on it's side.
4) Dizzy Slizzy - Relay game again. Run out to the baseball bat, turn around 7 times with your head on the bat, come back, drink your beer and the next person goes. Everyone competes. All teams will go at the same time, so this could be a mess... There will be three heats. No elimination bracket for this event.
5) Hitch Toss - Now I know you folks already do this in Glenburn so I thought I'd give you something you're familiar with. Each team member will compete. Each team member gets two throws and take the best one. Longest total team wins (hitch toss not cock size). We'll be playing on the Olafson driveway, so any hitch toss that doesn't stay on the gravel will score zero and count as a throw.
6) Tug of War - Everyone knows how to tug of war, so here's the twist!
Option #1 - All members will participate. Starting off there will be two team members on the ropes. The other two will be chugging beer, one person at a time. Once you've chugged your beer you may go help the team. Eventually both teams will be at full force and if you haven't already lost it's game on.
Option #2 - Everyone plays like normal except you're holding a cup of beer.
Would like to see a team of the women of Friends...
7) Lightning Round - This is final event and a time to really score some points. Each team members will set up as much beer as they think they can drink in 10 seconds. I'll provide 8 ounce cups that will be filled and drank. However many you drink in 10 secs is the number of points you can earn. So if your team of four can drink 8 a piece in 10 secs then you'll score 32 points!
