Dear inn guests,
To celebrate Yule, I have prepared you a merry drinking game you can try out during your weekly gatherings at the Green Dragon. It is a simple game: just take a gulp of your drink when the following instructions tell you to do so. Should you run out of your beverage, please don’t hesitate to come to the bar and let me fill your pint again, and again, and again, and again.
Yours sincerely,
Barmy Rootknot
Green Dragon innkeeper
The Green Dragon Friday Drinking Game
During GDF, always take a gulp of your drink when…
- someone complains about the ale prices at Green Dragon
- someone complains about how dirty the old rug is
- someone tries to put their drinks on Simbo’s tab
- someone drops their mug on the floor
- someone drops their instrument while playing
- someone falls asleep at the inn and doesn’t respond to others
- someone mentions turnips
- someone plays the bagpipes
- someone plays the Drums® (unauthorized)
- someone has played a very quick dancing tune
- someone keeps dancing even when there’s no music
- someone throws a snowball or a rotten fruit
- someone comes in wearing a hat (and without taking it off… manners!)
- someone starts to speak something incomprehensible
- you hear barking, meowing, peeping, chirping, howling, roaring… noises that shouldn’t be heard inside an inn
- someone starts a rumour
- someone lights up fireworks INSIDE the Dragon (if this happens, the culprit will have to pay all drinks on behalf of the present inn guests).
PS. Feel free to entertain yourself with this merry drinking game all year round, not only during Yule.
PPS. If you need more challenge, you may add more rules to the present ones. Just don’t lose your coin purse during the game! You can always leave your coins to me (for safekeeping, of course).
(This game was originally posted in the Hobbity Yule Calendar 2017.)
