4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book, January 15, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Complete Book of Beer Drinking Games, 3rd Revised Edition (Paperback)

This book is a must for any college student or just someone looking to have a good drinking game experience. The simple synonyms alone for getting sick and being drunk are a reason alone to buy this book, not to mention the 50 or so games which by any standards are down right fun and "entertaining". I suggest that anyone looking for some really good drinking games buy this book, its sure to make a dull night on campus turn into a wet, beer soaked one real quick!!!

The all-time classic guide to drinking games, beer, college, and assorted nonsense. In addition to 50 great beer games, you get some really clever essays, lists, and illustrations that will amuse you for years. There's a good reason this book has sold over 500,000 copies

5.0 out of 5 stars Are You Ready to RUMBLE....., January 1, 2002

By	student@harvard "harvardundergraduate" (Boston Metro Area) - See all my reviews

I remember the excitement of opening my high school graduation gift from Aunt Beatrice. It was this book. My Aunt B assured me that this book was the key to a fulfilling and successful college career. As I begin my junior year, I reflect on my college times thus far and realize that Aunt B was right.

This book definitely helped make the transition from high school to college a smooth one. I was able to participate in all the fun games on campus with working knowledge of the correct rules. In a few cases, I was able to introduce upperclassmen to new games and intervene/referee during controversial moments in play.

In just a few months, my little brother will be graduating from high school and embarking on his college experience. I will be purchasing this vital reference volume for him. How proud he will be to put this book alongside his dictionary, thesaurus, and encyclopedia set. This book is an excellent gift for a new grad, a college kid, or a middle-aged guy needing to brush up on his favorite games. Bottoms Up!!
