The "ER" Drinking Game
Rules:
The game is relatively simple. All you have to do is take the number
drinks specified when the action/event listed occurs. The author assumes do
responsibility for the kind of drink used.
The best way to play is to assign each character to a different person
playing the game. Then, when that character's event/action occurs, then that
person can alert the group as to how many drinks must be taken.
Once again, play responsibly, and don't drink and drive.
