Euro (blurred) vision.
Don’t try and tell us you didn’t remember that Eurovision 2016 gets underway tonight; if you’re anything like us you’ve had the date marked in the calendar for months.
Part of the appeal of the Eurovision, of course, is the whole circus that surrounds the actual songs themselves and a number of those aspects are highlighted in a drinking game sent our way by a bunch of University of Limerick students who should be studying for exams.
Instead, their procrastination has led to a highly entertaining drinking game that will spice up anyone’s Eurovision experience.
If you are to give it a go while watching Nicky Byrne and the rest of the contestants, make sure to drink responsibly while doing so.
Eurovision Drinking Game (AKA Euro Shtate Go Home!):

Every time wind machine is used – 1 drink
