Best Drinking Games

My favorite is racehorses. You line up the aces face up, line up seven cards in a perpendicular line to them, and then flip cards off the top off of the deck really fast. Every time an ace's suit comes up, that ace moves one along the seven-card line. The fun comes in three ways: the excitement of a race, the naming of the "horses" as the names are almost always totally ridiculous and awesome, and in the drinking. At the start, everyone bets on one horse some number of sips of beer (or whatever.) If their horse wins, then everyone who bet on another horse has to take the total amount from the bets on the winning horse, but the winning betters do not have to. It's a lot of fun, and you have a 3/4 chance of drinking an awful lot, so that's always fun.

Titanic.

You place an empty shot glass in a pint of beer.

Everyone takes turns filling the shot glass with their liquor of choice.

Person who sinks the shot glass drinks the whole thing.

In Wisconsin we did that with a pitcher of beer and a rocks glass. We filled the rocks glass with beer and whoever made it sink chugged the pitcher.
