Hockey (Quarters)


Everyone sets a beer in front of them. One person spins a quarter on its side and calls out someone's name at the table. That person is now the shooter. They hit the quarter with the back of their hand at someone's beer. Everyone else guards thier beer with their index finger and pinky (using the whole hand is illegal). If you're beer is hit, you were scored on. If you are scored on, the scorer spins the quarter again and you drink until the quarter falls off the table or falls on its side. Everyone at the table tries to keep the quarter spinning as long as possible.

One other part of the game is if someone decides to "pull their goalie." To do so, someone at the table whos name is not called may decide to yell "empty net" and take thier hand away from playing goalie. If they decide to do this and the shooter aims for thier beer and misses...it is the equivalent of the shooter getting scored on and they are the loser of that shot. Of course if they hit the beer of the "pulled goalie," which is quite easier with no protection, the one who pulled their goalie is the loser.
