As you surely know, Sunday night marked the beginning of Discovery’s annual Shark Week, and what better way to celebrate a ratings-grabbing TV event than by drinking yourself blind? This Shark Week drinking game is sure to get you loaded on rule #3 alone — the clip we posted yesterday was two straight minutes of Australian accent. But if I had my way, I’d add one more rule: take a drink every time they display the scars or amputation nub of a shark attack survivor. (For the handful of readers out there who don’t drink, I’ve included a Shark Week corgi below to brighten your day.)

I particularly like #2, although it sounds like a good path towards liver failure.
“For the handful of readers out there who don’t drink…”
I’m guessing that is a very small hand.
I’d add a drinking for any mention of the word ‘Chum,’ or anyone performing the act of chumming. Finish your drink if they use the Chum Cannon (which I saw on one of the shows last night and The Chum Cannons is now my Fantasy Football team name).
Did I mention that chum my be my favorite word in the English language? chumchumchumchumchum
That “Summer of the Shark” special last night was all Australians, all the time. You’d get alcohol poisoning.
Rule: finish 3 drinks in a row if they play “once bitten, twice shy” by Great White.
/this probably won’t happen
- 1 sip for every seal death
- 2 sips if it’s a baby seal
- 1 sip every time sometime tries to convince you sharks aren’t godless killing machines
- 3 sips if that voiceover is accompanied by a shark doing some godless killing
This is simultaneously an excellent way to observe Shart Week.
I like when they say that the sharks are only taking “exploratory bites” and won’t actually eat you.
Oh, well, that makes the giant hole where your calf used to be hurt so much less.
Just don’t eat any Peanut Butter Snickers and I think you’ll be fine.
I would actually like to play this game, except instead of drinking I would pet Shark Week corgi. Such as, if you see a shark caught or trapped, pet Shark Week corgi two times. Instances where you would pound your drink are replaced with a belly rub.
Patty, I hate to be that guy but sharks don’t actually like human meat. Yeah, when they bite you, you usually die or lose a limb, but when they do bite you, most of the time they spit it back out.
Doesn’t help much if you are a victim, but it’s like a vegetarian mistakenly eating a hamburger when they thought it was a veggie burger. They spit it back out.
Yes, I just compared myself to a shark, sue me.
Smegga, I hate to be that guy, but people are delicious. A shark once told me so.
Damnit Smegga, it’s much easier to be a shark apologist when the surf off the Isle of Wight gets above 60 degrees like twice a year.
Dotcomaphobe, that was a cannibal dressed as a shark. Of course he would say that.
Sorry FSJ.
Is that a chum cannon in your pants or are you glad to see…
/sorry
“the clip we posted yesterday was two straight minutes of Australian accent”
That guy was pretty clearly South African. Just saying.
There are people who read this that don’t drink? I’ve got to get a good buzz on before visiting so I can beat down that urge I get to buy a corgi after constantly being subjected to their fluffy adorableness.
cool dog man i like the fin
