As any connoisseur of the partying lifestyle can tell you, the right drinking game can take your party from just another shindig to the night people will be talking about for months to come. But just which popular drinking games should you choose to play? It may depend on who\u2019s invited to the party. Below is a list of popular drinking games, with notes about how and when you should play them:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nBoard game drinking games (Beeropoly, Candy and Beer Land, etc)<\/strong>: Play these fun drinking games for some nostalgia with a twist. This is especially great for old friends or groups of people who are creative enough to let their favorite board game get as crazy as it needs to. It\u2019s pretty easy to adapt the rules of each board game to become a drinking game; simply take a drink every time you land on a certain square, get sent home, or have to pay that damn banker.<\/p>\n

\"King's<\/a>
\nCard games (King\u2019s Cup, etc)<\/strong>: Some of the most popular drinking games are card games. The beauty of card games is that you can make them as complicated or as simple as you want to. Perhaps you want to start out the night with a drinking game that involves strategy, like Hearts. As you continue drinking, though, you might just want to break out some good old fashioned War or Go Fish. Card games are great for small or large groups, and they\u2019re especially helpful for prospective hookups, as many popular card games can be easily adapted to become a \u201cstrip\u201d version.<\/p>\n

\"Beer<\/a>
\nThe classic (Beer Pong)<\/strong>: There\u2019s a reason beer pong has been a party staple for so long. Beer pong might be the pitch-perfect popular drinking game; it\u2019s active but not so active that it requires athleticism; it takes skill but not so much that you can\u2019t learn it on the spot; and the rules are complex enough to stay interesting but simple enough for everyone to understand. Plus, you can easily dress up your beer pong tables to reflect a certain theme or team name.<\/p>\n

Remember, popular drinking games can make or break your party, so it\u2019s important to choose the right ones. But we have no doubt that by following our advice you\u2019ll be able to keep things fun, interesting, and memorable!<\/p>\n
