Drinking Game: ‘The Bachelor’

What a ride we are on for this season with Bachelor Nick Viall. What started out with some very dull episodes, minus, of course, villain Corinne Olympios and her nanny Raquel, has suddenly picked up speed in the last few weeks. Nick, on his fourth appearance with the franchise, is desperate to find love and, yet, kicks off any girl who professes her love for him. He spends a lot of time crying, and I spend a lot of time wondering if this 36-year-old aspiring model is actually a catch. Now that we’re down to the final four and already know Rachel Lindsay is our next Bachelorette, you may need a few drinks to get you through the remaining episodes, so here’s the drinking game you’ve been waiting for all season long.

Take a sip when…

• Nick looks contemplatively out onto a body of water
• Someone cries
• Vanessa expresses some concern over her relationship with Nick
• Nick and his date act very excited to see a concert for a band no one’s ever heard of

Take a shot when…

• Nick is somehow still not sure this “journey” will work out
• Corrine is eating
• Chris Harrison has to come in and keep Nick from going AWOL
• A rose ceremony or cocktail party is cancelled

Finish your drink when…

• You start rooting for Corinne at some point because the other three are too good for him
• A girl leaves on her own or a girl he’s already eliminated comes back
• You wonder how much hair product Nick uses (it must be a lot)
• You desperately want Nick to meet Rachel’s federal judge father
