Tips & Warnings
This action drinking game is best played outside, in front of a large group of tipsy people.
Blind beer bungee ups the ante, as it is potentially more difficult and hazardous for the player. You might want to save the blindfold for a tie or for a second round of the game.
This game has a potentially high frustration level. Be ready to talk a player down, if necessary.
Bungees and beers don't always mix. Play this game in a safe area when you are not too toasted.
Know your limits, be 21 or over, and get someone who isn't drinking to drive you home.
