Dice Game

I hope that many of my blog posts have helped you out in these past few weeks. I am going to try and keep them up however I do not think that I will be on here as much as I currently am so if there is not a post for a while do not worry I have not stopped for good I am just taking a break that is all. Like you I want to go out there and enjoy my summer since after all that is when us college students get a bit of a break from juggling our two lives the one that is in the classroom and the fun night life one. Also with my little break I hope to learn a lot more new games for you so I can tell you how to go about playing them. So here is one last game for you it is really not the best but it is a game after all. All you will need to play is a die and a few people you decide what your numbers will mean but assign each number a drink or a dare or challenge of some sort. Such as follows 1- give a drink out 2- take a drink 3- jump in the pool 4- get someone wet 5- pass 6-wild now these are just some ideas you can change them to whatever you would like as the seasons change its clearly summer since it is July now but you are not going to be throwing people into the pool in winter at least I hope not so feel free to be creative!

Catch Phrase

Catch phrase is a game that we figured out this summer that it can indeed be turned into a drinking game and let me tell you I for one before we made it into this game hated the game by itself so if you like me dislike the game catch phrase with a passion you can now give it another shot since it is more fun when you play it this way. What you will need is a large group of people and then divide the people into two teams. We divined it into two teams because the game only has that many teams on it that is why you cannot make it into a larger number of groups with less people if you had a bunch of people playing. You will also need the game catch phrase to play. Each team has one person from their team go up there this person is going to represent their team for this round (each player on each team must participate and take a turn up and representing them for a round before a player is allowed to repeat by representing the team again, if the opposing team catches you cheating by sending someone up there before everyone goes then everyone on that team has to take a shot to be penalized.) The two people flip a coin to decide who starts for the first round then after that the winner of the last round gets to pick the new category. After a category is picked you then begin the first player is the one who picked the category. They will be given a word that they have to describe without saying the word that is given to them once there team guesses it they pass it then the next person goes the game has a timer on it and whoever the timer ends on is the team that loses and has to drink so use your words wisely when describing.

Pool Volleyball

Pool volleyball is kind of similar to pool basketball when it comes to the drinking part but I will get to that in a moment. First off there are rules unlike in pool basketball these pretty much follow regular volley ball rules except you obviously have a smaller court to deal with since you are in a pool. Also this game you will need a minimum of about 4 people more is definitely preferable but that option is not always available that’s when you will just have to improvised if you want to play and have a good time with your friends and/or family. The game is played to the score of 21 points whoever gets there first well that team is a winner and the other team well they get to take a shot. No that is not the only drinking in the game also whenever a point is scored the opposing team takes a drink since they failed to save that point. Also if there is an ace (where no one on the team on the opposing side of the net hits the ball at all) then the team that got aced voted a player to take a shot (this can be anyone but is usually whoever was not paying attending and is the reason why the team did not get the point).

I rate this game at a 8 out of 10 because it is an easy game that everyone can play and it is fun that you can play it in the pool.

Drinking Pennies

I am going to try to get a few different water games up here for you guys. Diving sticks is a fun game to play at the store you can buy diving sticks that will sink to the bottom of the pool for a few dollars however I understand that you might not even want to spend that well then use penny’s you can find these everywhere. What you will do is get a set amount this will depend on how many people you have that are playing let’s just say that we have 8 people playing then we would need about 32 coins now out of these coins half of them you have to color or place a dot of some sort on only one side of the penny or mark the dive stick (some dive sticks come with points already so you wouldn’t have to do this) and then on one of the penny’s draw a frown face then you are going to throw all the penny’s threw out the pool and then the goal is to get the most pennies possible. You grab what you get without flipping them around to see what is on them. Whoever gets the most coins gets to give out a shot to whoever they would like. Likewise whoever loses by having the least has to take a ½ shot and finally whoever has the frown gets a shot. This does not start till all 32 penny’s have been taken out of the pool. Finally if you got a penny that is colored you have to take a drink for each one that is colored.

This game I rate at a 8 out of 10 this might just be because I am good at it and end up getting luck but you should try it.

Beer/pool Basketball

The weather is definitely hot out right now and all most people want to do is cool off in say the pool so here is a game for you. Beer/pool Basketball this game is played in a pool with a basketball net and ball the only catch is the rules is there really are no rules like in regular basketball such as there are no fouls. You can hold someone under water if they have a ball until they let go of the ball if this is what you wish to do. I am sure you are wondering how the beer gets involved well that part is pretty easy my friend if your team makes a shot then the other team must drink. You continue this until a team reaches the score of 15 points you can play to a different number if you would like but my family and friends think that this is a good number since none of us are that amazing at basket ball that we need the point total to be increased. However if you are good at the game of basket ball on land beware that as much as you think it is the same on land it really is not the same and there are a lot of differences because of the water but not only because of the water but also because there are no longer any rules and many people are not used to being fouled and or held on to during the game.

I rate this game at a 6 out of 10 because it is fun but if you do not have access to a pool that is a bit of a down fall.

I do recommend that you start shopping and looking for the items that you would like a bit in advance such as a couple of weeks so that you can have the items shipped to you especially if you are using the sites above since many but not all are stores that are only located online and you cannot go to a store to pick up your items such as Wal-Mart that has both online shopping or in store shopping.
