The Green Thing Game
We invented this while on holiday over here about 4 years ago. We were sitting
on deck chairs in my Uncle's pool, drinking Victoria Bitter (which comes in a
green can).

idea of the game is one person throws an empty can into the air. Before they do
so, they nominate the "interceptor", i.e. the person who will throw their empty
and try and hit the first can while it's in flight. If they fail to do so, they
consume. If they hit it, the first thrower consumes, and the interceptor gets
the next throw. Whoever throws any can out of the pool consumes. What made this
game enjoyable was we played with FULL international rules, with the additional
one that you couldn't say anything about throwing, hitting, etc.

s meant that to nominate an interceptor, instead of saying "I'll throw my can
and Jumbo can try and hit the fucker", you had to say something like "I shall
allow the green thing to leave my hand at a moderate velocity, and the person
two to my left will attempt to allow another green thing to meet my green thing
and cause it to enter the pool at an angle different from that which was
originally intended".

n we started the "nothing beginning with T" rule...we ended up playing for
about 4 hours straight, as it was most amusing! Anyway, this is a pretty stupid
game but shows that you can make a drinking game out of anything.
