■The Complete Book of Beer Drinking
Games” by Andy Gnscom, Ben Rand and
Scott Johnston is the best collection of
recreational drinking rules around. Best
of all, it comes with a custom barf bag.
This “Beer Swigger's Bible” contains
all the usual games near and dear to
every college student’s heart:
“Quarters." “Bullshit," “Boat Racing"
and “Beer Softball."
The games are ranked according to the
amounts of alcohol consumed “A boot
factor of ‘ 1' describes t he lowest potential
for tossing cookies, while a boot factor ol
'5' warns of an almost assured heave."
Class

Dope is very important to all great
musicians, lie explains. “look at Jimi
Hendrix, the Doors, hook at the Beatles.”
He raises his eyebrows and throws a
sideways gnn at his students who are
never sure when they’re being had.
In 12 short weeks, the students cover
rock n' roll's milestones, from its birth
in rhythm and blues to the newer pro
gressive rock. Most of the course is
devoted to the legendary acts — Chuck
Berry, Little Richard, Jimi Hendrix, Bob
Dylan and, of course, the Beatles.
Debra Bailey, a senior journalism
major, said she likes Ramal because “he
doesn't take himself too seriously but
you still learn everything you could pos
sibly want to know"
Trip
Continued from page 8
trip to Toronto, Canada.
“We were sitting at Burger King talk
ing about where we could go,” Hasten
said “When we said Canada it was like
a magical word Everyone's eyes lit up,
and we said 'Yeah, let's go to Canada.”
“We basically went because of bore
dom. We were waiting for classes to
start, and we had to do something,"
Wooten said. “We were looking for some
thing big "
On a long road trip, rules are bound
to emerge. Wooten said they agreed to
split any speeding tickets acquired on
the trip.
“The guy in the back could sleep. The
guy riding shotgun had to stay awake
to keep the driver company and the driv
er couldn’t drink,” Wooten said "The
whole way up there, we kept looking at
each other saying ‘Can you believe we’re
going to Canada?”
The feeling of disbelief is one that Ford
Stokes, a senior marketing major,
knows well. Last fall, he and two friends
drove to Atlantic City. N.J.
Pure chance led them to their desti
nation. They decided on Atlantic City by
flipping a penny on an atlas, Stokes
said. “It landed on Atlantic City and we
were gone about 10 minutes later.”
Despite penny pinching, the students
lost $000 gambling at Trump Plaza. “We
came so close to having only $6 to our
names.” Stokes said, “but we won it
back."
All of our road-trippers agreed that
the best aspect of their trip was having
no deadline. “We made it a point to stop
every time we wanted to,” Wooten said.
One Boot Factor Five game “Boot-a
Bout" is brilliant for its simplicity and
deadly for players. This game was cus
tom-made for any gnarly dnnkin’ joint
A pitcher of beer is passed around the
group, each player drinking as much as
he desires
The beauty is the game’s only rule:
'The player who drank just before the
player who finishes the pitcher must buy
the next pitcherBefore you think that
this sounds boring, consider the amount
of beer you would be willing to drink to
ensure that the person before you has to
purchase the next round.
The Complete Book of Beer Drinking
Games" is a worthwhile investment for
anyone who believes the sole purpose of
college is to drink and have fun
