Chugging Contest. We knew those countless frat parties in our college days would come in handy! When it comes to drinking games, the classic chugging contest is as easy as it gets. Fill up the steins and see who can do it the fastest. It’s a lot of fun, but a disclaimer is necessary! Beware of over-consumption and please remember to drink safely. article-2207102-15249D7E000005DC-726_634x434 Beer Stein Race. A classic game played at many Oktoberfest celebrations, the beer stein race involves carrying steins full of beer across a length of space. The players are measured by time and how much beer remains in the stein at the finish line. Think you’re up to the challenge? Try playing with multiple steins in each hand to make things even more interesting!
