Obama drinking game sends students to the hospital
January 5th, 2008

Three Hospitalized After Obama Drinking Game


Three Iowa State students remain hospitalized today with alcohol poisoning after participating in a post-caucus drinking game.

"We were watching Barack Obama," said student Randall Caughlin, "and someone suggested we take a drink every time he says 'Change'. Then we started drinking on 'Hope'."

"Next thing I knew, I woke up in the emergency room."

Iowa Board of Health Chairwoman Cheryll Jones said that this was the worst political drinking accident since the Republican National Convention, when 9/11-themed drinking games resulted in seven deaths nationwide.

Jones warned revelers to beware of rules that could lead to dangerous levels of consumption. "If you're drinking every time Huckabee says 'Jesus' or McCain says 'bomb', you're asking for trouble."

She suggested that if you must drink to political speeches, to restrict your sips to actual policy statements. An even safer approach is to only drink to speeches by Hillary Clinton or Mitt Romney, who rarely say anything of consequence.

1. Imagine the Giuliani one
you'd be drunk everytime he says "9-11" within the first paragraph of his speeches.


I tried it once when I was bored. I got hammered.

16. The day of the Republican You Tube debate
I told a friend I was going to take a shot every time Tancredo said immigration or immigrant. It's a good thing I was joking because when I came home from work as soon as I turned the TV on he said it about five times in a minute.
