California Governor's Debate Drinking Game: Jerry Brown Vs. Meg Whitman

Nancy Tracy
Since marijuana is still not legal in California, unless you buy... er, obtain a medical prescription, Californians will be forced once again to quaff old fashioned alcoholic beverages to survive tonight's guberntorial debate between Meg Whitman and Jerry Brown. Many Californians, who have yet to take this race seriously (unless you count coin tossing), will engage in some kind of drinking game while observing this verbal tennis match with their friends or cat. Although we do not condone excessive drinking of alcohol, here are some drinking game ideas you can try for tonight's debate. Please take all usual precautions after drinking, such as refraining from driving and sending an email to an old boyfriend.

Alcoholic beverages needed:

For Meg Whitman: Seagram Crown Royal, Gold Flake Vodka

For Jerry Brown: moonshine, Two Buck Chuck

Take a shot any time:

Meg Whitman says, "I don't know you."

Jerry Brown calls someone a whore.

Meg Whitman puts on her fake smile.

Jerry Brown makes a salty remark.

Meg Whitman starts a sentence with "so."

Jerry Brown rambles.

Meg Whitman mentions Jerry Brown raising taxes.

Jerry Brown mentions Meg Whitman lowering taxes for her rich friends.

Meg Whitman mentions her experience in business.

Jerry Brown gives Meg Whitman the business.

Drink half a bottle if Tom Brokaw:

Uses the word like or totally -- or unlocks his jaw.

    I'll bet you'd be passed out before the first round of the debate was over, at that rate.

    Great piece!

    Fun article for sure, I'm not a drinker, but this is funny.

    Man, just when I was trying to keep my cat off the sauce...

    Excellent! ♥ CA's politics affect NV's so will be interesting to see the results. Just remember, 10 million Medflies can't be wrong!

    Giggles, Nancy. Good job. I lived in CA while Brown was governor. Not sure why people would want a repeat...could be they just can't live with the alternative.

  • Nancy Miller10/14/2010

    Very clever, Nancy. I enjoyed it a lot and I don't even drink!

  • Kathryn (Kathy) McKenzie Nichols10/13/2010

    I'll drink to that!

    Too funny! Wish I'd seen this before the debate.

    This was hysterical, thanks for input.
