In our annual tradition, we in the CraveOnline Industrial Labs have spent days upon days refining and tweaking our scientifically tested Super Bowl Drinking Game. We are expecting a great game, but have added special bonus content for the commercials which everyone loves watching.
It should be noted in special Mom and Dad voices – PLEASE BE SAFE AND KNOW WHEN TO SAY WHEN. We care about you and want you to return to read more stuff. Seriously, last year a Radio Shack 80’s themed commercial nearly took out a frat in Pullman.

Bonus Commercial Break Game:
Car Colors – Everyone in the room picks a color. When a car commercial comes on, whoever picked the color of the car in the commercial doles out 5 drinks to anyone in the room.
Celebrity Names – Whoever yells out the correct name of the celebrity in a commercial wins. The person to their direct left, takes 3 drinks. 5 drinks if the celebrity was famous in the 80’s. Movie trailers commercials don’t count.
Mindy Kaling – Mindy Kaling will appear in a commercial. The last person in the room yell “Mindy Mindy” OR sing the theme to her show has to take 3 drinks.
Lindsay Lohan – The Lo will show up, we know this beforehand. When it does, everyone takes turns (start with the youngest and go clockwise around room) and has to say a Mean Girls quote. First person to fail has to be the serving wench for the rest of the quarter.
Beer is Good – Whenever a beer commercial appears the first person to yell “Crave Online” (or “I Love Redd”) doles out 10 drinks in any combo to people in the room.
Puppies and Babies – Everyone splits up into two teams – puppies and babies. Count up the number of appearances of either. At the end of the game, the team that had the least amount of appearances has to drink the total number (define a max beforehand).
