It's very easy to get drunk, she added. The activities combine a competitive spirit with drinking, Schueller insisted. Others called drinking games a way to pass the time when there isn't much else going on. Drinking games can employ dice, cards, board games and sports. Popular card games include Cops and Robbers, Golf and Hockey.
Most games involve taking numerous gulps of beer with each turn.
You drink just a little each time, but you get really drunk,'' Kowal said. He added that people don't realize how much and how quickly they are actually drinking. But some games encourage guzzling. One card game requires players to stick cards on their foreheads and then guess if their card is higher or lower than the others they can see. The player with the lowest card cannot stop guzzling his drink until everyone else has stopped.
