If Netflix and chill just isn’t the same when there’s green beer and Jameson specials in every corner of town, here’s a drinking game for those of you who aren’t planning on staying in on St. Patty’s Day. In honor of the holiday, the Avenue is providing you with your own “sign night.” Yes, if you’re reading this, you’ve officially turned 21 all over again.
What you’ll need:
Scissors (to cut out this article)
Glue (to paste it onto a green sheet of construction paper)
A hole puncher (you get the picture)
Green string (to hang your sign around your neck)
A willingness to forget your name
The rules:
Take a sip…
For every person you see wearing green beads
For every person taking selfies with green beer
For every person who attempts an Irish accent
…of your Guinness (or someone else’s, if you’re a baller on a budget)
Take a shot…
For every person you spot not wearing green
For every “Kiss Me, I’m Irish” shirt
For every girl with a four-leaf clover drawn on her face
…of an Irish Car Bomb (It is tradition, after all.)
Finish your drink…
For every person you spot passed out before 9 p.m.
For that one guy who’s always pinching everyone — regardless of whether people are wearing green
For every person drunkenly attempting an Irish jig
If your friends are drunker than you are — or if you’re drunker than them
