The Scripps-Howard Spelling Bee has been TiVoed

Now accepting suggestions for creative drinking games.

You may be asking yourself, "isn't there something fundamentally wrong with using an event with 12-year-old participants as an excuse to indulge in alcoholism?" And to you I say, "put your pants back on, Dr. Chomsky."

Thoughts so far:
* Each player (in the drinking game, not the Bee) picks a "favorite" he thinks will go all the way. For each round that contestant advances, the opponents drink.
* If you can spell the word correctly before it is flashed on the screen, your opponents drink.
* For the rare times when there is a word of German origin, it's a "social". Round of Jagermeister for all.
