For When Beer Pong And Flip Cup Just Aren't Cutting It

5 Unknown Drinking Games To Impress Your Friends With This Memorial Day

Don’t get me wrong, flip cup and beer pong are great but there are plenty of other drinking games that your friends won’t even know exist. Lucky for you, I did my homework and found a bunch of lesser known drinking games just in case times get desperate. Memorial Day is coming up and what better way to celebrate than to introduce some brand new ways to get drunk!

1) Confidence

As you can tell by the name of the game, Confidence is a pretty good way to gauge where everyone’s self-esteem is at. And the good news is, all you need to play is alcohol, a coin, and a cup. Rally a group of your friends and get them to stand in a circle or around a table. Whoever goes first will pour a certain amount of their drink into the empty cup, depending upon how confident (or drunk) they are that the outcome will work out in their favor. Next, you’re going to flip the coin and call it in the air. If the coin lands on whatever you called, congrats, you don’t have to drink whatever you poured out and you can give the coin to the next victim. However, if you call heads and the coin lands on tails, you’re chugging what’s in the cup.

2) Beer Ball

If you’re a little too bored of beer pong and need a bit more of a challenge (or if you’re low on cups) then your solution is Beer Ball. You’re going to need a table similar to the one you would use for Beer Pong, and a ping pong ball. Both you and your opponent will need a cup that you will place on the edge of your respective sides of the table. Throw the ball at your opponent’s cup and if you hit it, start drinking. Your opponent has to chase the ball wherever it goes and touch it to the table to get you to stop drinking. The first one to finish their drink wins.

3) Buffalo

With minimal supplies necessary, Buffalo is the perfect game to play at a packed house party where there’s no space for a table or the wasted frat guy belly flopped off of the balcony and onto to the one you were using for Beer Pong. All you need is the drink in your hand. During the party, simply walk up to anyone participating in the game and say “buffalo.” If the person is oh so lucky enough to be holding their drink in their dominant hand when you approached them, then they have to finish their drink right then and there. However, if their drink is in their non-dominant, then YOU have to chug your drink. Pretty simple way to make some enemies.

4) Pizza Box

Rip off the lid of the pizza box that’s been sitting in the kitchen since the beginning of the party and take turns flipping a coin into the inside of the lid. On each person’s first coin flip, they have to write their name in a circle on the lid wherever the coin lands. On each player’s following flip, they have to draw a shape wherever the coin lands and write either a rule or an action inside the shape. If a coin is flipped and it lands inside one of the shapes, the player has to do whatever that shape says to do. If a player flips the coin and it lands in a circle with someone’s name, that person has to drink.

5) Rock-Paper-Drink

An innocent childhood game, turned boozy. All you need for this one is a group of friends and your alcoholic beverage of choice. Stand in a circle and have two people play rock-paper-scissors. The loser of that game has to take a (hefty) sip of their drink and play the next person in the circle. Should the person lose to everyone in the circle, they have to finish their drink. IN THE CASE OF A TIE: add one gulp for every game that they tie.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
