In our annual tradition, we in the CraveOnline Party Engineering and Chemical Labs have worked long into the night — just like our college days — to prepare for the Final Four Drinking Game. We are sure the games will be awesome to watch … but we like to take things to the next level.
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.
