Tecmo Drinking Bowl
From DrinkiWiki
The following is a drinking game invented by my brother and I for the video game Tecmo Super Bowl (see: [1]) on the Nintendo Entertainment System. Both combatants agree to all rules ahead of time, and the drinking commences.
Drinking materials needed:
Two shot glasses Any hard liquor (rum or vodka works well) At LEAST a 12 pack of bottled beer. Molson or Labatt Blue are HIGHLY recommended. Light beer is accepted, but not encouraged
Pre-game: both players pick teams. Trash talking begins. Make sure to remember to set up your play book.
Coin flip:
Each person takes a shot. If you press B to leave the coin flip screen too early = One drink for you
Kick-off:
The person kicking off hits a full-power BOMB of a kickoff (power meter ALL THE WAY full) = One drink for you
If you opponent recovers an onside kick = One drink for you
General game play:
If your opponent picks the play that you picked causing an all-out blitz = One drink for you
You lose yardage on a play where your opponent did NOT 'call the play' = One drink for you
Your quarterback is sacked = One drink for you
You fumble the ball and your opponent recovers = One drink for you
Your quarterback throws an interception = One drink for you
You turn the ball over on downs = One drink for you
An animated cut scene occurs in your favor = One drink for opponent
You get a first down = One drink for opponent
You get a first down despite your opponent picking the play = Two drinks for opponent
You score a touchdown = Two drinks for opponent
You kick a field goal or extra point = NO DRINKS AWARDED. Because kicking in Tecmo is for pussies.
You score a touchdown via excellent usage of the "Tecmo Weave" = Half a shot for opponent.
Both players must concede that it was an official "Tecmo Weave". The following is the gold standard example of the vaunted Tecmo Weave: [2]
You injure an opposing player: One drink for opponent
Halftime:
Both players take another shot.
Trash talking:
Trash talking is both an art and an encouraged part of the game. However, it will come with repercussions if you don't put your money where your mouth is.
You trash talk in the middle of the play, then achieve said prognosticated outcome: One drink for opponent You trash talk, then your opponent owns you: One drink for you
End of game:
Both players will shake hands. There will be no disrespecting of the hardware, i.e. throwing controllers. Both players will finish their beers, and berate the shit out of each other. Best out of three matches are recommended.
At any point in the game, a player may concede. After all, Tecmo Drinking Bowl is like a chess game. If you concede, you must drink the remaining beer at hand, as will your opponent.
Have fun. And remember: BO KNOWS FOOTBALL.
