To play this game, you’ll need at least 4 people, an empty bowl placed in the middle of the table, a shot glass and a coin per person, lots and lots of beer, and of course, some Jerry Springer shows.

How to Play

Take a shot of beer every time:

• You have had the problem the show is dealing with (done only once at beginning of the show).
• Whenever someone says the title of the show (e.g. “I’m Cheating On You”).
• When there’s a fight – the last person to slam down their glass takes another shot.
• Whenever a prop is used in a fight.
• Whenever there is a beep (censored).
• Whenever a guest comes out with a prop (e.g. flowers).
• Anytime an audience member tries to solve the problem.
• Whenever they go to the adverts, the last person to throw their coin in the centre bowl takes 2 shots.
• If you are confused during the final thought – be honest.
• During the credits, if someone has a prepared rap/skit, the last person to take a shot of beer has to repeat what was said.

Other Rules

• Whenever you see a bouncer wearing a pink shirt, pat your head and rub your tummy.
• Whenever they show the free tickets screen – the last person to put their thumb on the table takes a shot of beer.
• Whenever Jerry makes fun of a guest, play musical chairs – the last person seated takes a shot.
• If someone’s wig falls off, everyone checks to make sure they still have their hair.
