These are often games that require drinking.

Im good at darts.
I suck at billiards.
Im decent at bowling.

I love bocci ball.
But im much, much better at all of them when I'm drinking.
But the minute you put money on a game, I suck. I'm no Jordan - I cave under pressure.

What games do you like?
What are you awesome at? suck at?

    I ruled Jarts. Stuck one in my brothers back from about 40 yards out.

    Fun times.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    Drinking games:
    Quarters -- very strong
    Anchorman -- very strong
    Foosball -- used to be awesome, now am average to below average
    Asshole - love to play
    Pong -- suck but like to play (too old, Pong was not a drinking game when I was in college)
    RBI Baseball 2 - for NES - best drinking game we invented..1 beer bong for every home run allowed, 1 beer bong for every 2 runs allowed. A 2 run homer was a double beer bong and a Granny was a Triple Beer Bong. We got very good at pitching!
    Flip Cup -- kind of suck but like playing.
    Bowling -- get worse as the night goes on and more drinks go in. Shitty to horrible skills.
    Boccie - like it, average player
    Horseshoes - have a pit in my new place. Memorial Day party with 20 people yesterday and I didnt play a game. I suck and need to practice!
    Jarts -- I have not played that since I was a kid. Damn, I loved that!

    Darts - Love to play, not so great at it though. Win the scattered game, regardless of how many beer I've had.
    Cribbage - I peak at about the 4th beer... after that, it's all downhill.
    Cornhole - this is my best drinking game - dead ringer.
    Beer Die - Used to be a tournament champ back in collage... now I avoid the game like the plague as it's a gaurenteed hangover.
    Flip Cup - I could take it or leave it.
    Washers - Just started playing, getting better all the time.
    All board games = yes.

    best video game for beers/friends = Super Bomber Man for SNES. awesome. Time bomb, yellow flame, you're toast. :twisted:
    Houston, Texas... Believe it or not, there are 7 million people here... must be a couple of fans who'd love to see you play.

    Very Good at Bocce, but the "Lawn Bowling" all-terrain variety

    Flip Cup Im automatic.

    Darts, Billiards, Cornhole I am just OK

    Went bowling for the first time in like a year in a half yesterday. Started with 3 strikes and ended with a 189. I used to be on a summer bowling league a few years ago. Have about a 160 average.

    Sooo...

    Bowling: I'm above average.
    Pool: Used to be good in college, now I kinda suck because I rarely play.
    Darts: Awesome...Will destroy anyone in darts.
    Bar shuffleboard: Kinda crappy.
    Ping pong: Awesome. Will destroy anyone in ping pong.
    Beer pong: Awesome. You'll drink a ton playing me! :lol:
    Cornhole: Average
    Flip cup: Average. I can chug pretty good, but my cup skills are just ok.
    Videogames: Awesome...especially RBI Baseball and Tecmo Super Bowl.

    Again...I'm best at everything after 2 drinks. :D

    jarts, im gonna have to look that one up.

    i get excited for summertime games.. i realized this weekend that I have a lot of great obstacles in my yard for bocci. not like car up on cinder blocks and shit.. but nice natural contours and grassy areas surrounded by planters and tress, and of course the cat..

    I suck at all these games. I'm a bit klutzy and unfortunately, I perpetuate the "Throw like a girl" stereotype. :fp: :( :fp:

    But, I'll play them and still have fun, but nobody would want me on their team. :( :fp: :lol:
    I lost a bet...

    Players willing to enjoy themselves, drink their share & be cool about things should always be welcomed in these types of games. Serious people about this shit should stay in leagues and the like.
    Sometimes getting women to participate is difficult so I for one always appreciated when they joined in and had fun. Some women can play and not even have to drink their fair share. Depends on what they look like. (Sorry, truth!)

    I like darts. Does anybody stick your feather darts in a potato to keep them moist and sticking in the corkboard? (the darts, not the potato)

    I like pool. I'm pretty good for a girl. I can do a bank shot :mrgreen: (and once in a while make it)

    horseshoes. I like to think I could play, but what I'm really good at is having the horsehoe hit and run the furtherst away, like 40 feet away under a bush.

    cornhole. what the hell is a cornhole?

    frisbee If you throw one that's uncatchable, your opponenet gets a point. If you don't catch it (or you don't run as fast as you can to try catching it), your opponent gets a point. game of 21, have to win by 2. In this game, I will probably always win.


    Drinking is a necessity for all the above, and music too is a necessity for the frisbee and horseshoes.

    The sport is called TABLE TENNIS and I'd give you a game especially if I'm allowed to use my paddle.

    Anyone ever try Disc Golf there's a nice 19 hole coarse in Okeeheelee Park on Forrest Hills Blvd in West Palm Beach?

    Golf

    I tend to suck pretty bad

    3 or 4 beers in, and I'm hitting it straight, the irons are on fire, and I can't miss a putt.

    Any more than 4 beers though, and I start to suck again. Like a bogey would be a shot that would get me to run around the green like a soccer player who just kicked the winning penalty shot in the world cup. It can also become very much like Tin Cup with the amount of balls that are lost in the water and woods.
