Think While You Drink
Everyone charges their glasses. Someone is nominated to lead.
The leader shouts out a famous name. The person to his right follows with a First Name starting with the first letter of the previous famous person's Surname.
So, going round the table :
"Michael Jackson" could be followed by
"John Lennon" then
"Lionel Richie" then
"Sir Ralph Halpern" etc.
If the first name and last name start with the same letter the flow of play is reversed, so:
"Margaret Thatcher" could be followed by
"Tom Thumb" which would then pass the next go back to the person who said Margaret Thatcher.
Two final rules, you must take a long drink whilst you are thinking - don't stop until you have a new name. People who take a long time to get an answer will come up spluttering, and inevitably will get worse and worse as the drink takes effect. By the way, no names can be repeated.
Additional complications to add in are:
- Any name with "the" in the middle e.g. "Rupert the Bear" incurs a forfeit for the previous player.
- Any name which is a single word like "Prince", "Madonna" also incurs a forfeit for the previous player.
