Needle in the Haystack

This game I just learned this past weekend. It was a lot of fun. This game requires a good number of people, maybe around 5-9 so it’s not too small where the drinking becomes too much and not too many where the game gets real slow and boring. All you need for the game is a deck of cards make sure it’s a full deck), one big cup for the whole table, a bit of beer, and possibly a big pitcher to keep the game going. Nothing kills the quality of a game better than if its really slow and boring, people start becoming uninterested and leaving all together. The big cup is used for everyone at the table at the beginning of the game a person pours some beer into the cup. It is best played at a table where everyone can stand or sit around. To start the game one person (who ever owns the place, or who ever thought to start the game) picks one random card out of the deck. Say 4 of clubs for example. Once the card is chosen someone draws a card randomly out of the pile of cards in the middle of the table. From there it goes around the table to one person at a time drawing a single card out of the pile. As cards are drawn people can continue adding more beer to the central cup until they feel like there is enough beer in there. Once someone draws the chosen card (4 of clubs for this example) that person has to drink the middle cup. Once the cup is drank that person gets to choose the next card, poor as much beer in the cup at they think is necessary, and the game starts again with drawing new cards.
