Drinking Game: 7, 11, Doubles

My first experience with the drinking game 7, 11, Doubles was during my freshmen semester at York College. While most schools prefer Beer Pong, or card games like Asshole, it seemed no York party was complete without this game. After graduation I've played this game less and less, and can honesty say I can't remember the last time I played. Despite this, I still consider this my favorite beer game to play with friends. If your hanging with a group of friends and have plenty of beer, try this game out.

You'll need:

Two Dice
Large Cup
Beer and lots of it
Table

Gather a group of friends around a table; As you will be chugging brewskis I recommend standing. To start the game place the glass half full of beer in the middle of the table and make sure you got extra beer nearby. A pitcher or a keg in close by will come in handy. Going clockwise, have someone start off by rolling the dice.

If the person rolls a 7 the person to the left drinks.
If the person rolls a 11 the person to the right drinks.
If the person rolls a double the roller picks anyone at the table to drink
If the person rolls anything else, the dice goes to the next person to roll.

Once someone has to drink, the person picked has to drink the beer in the middle of the table before the person who originally rolled rolls a 7, 11, or doubles. The roller cannot roll the dice until the glass in the middle is touched. If you are thirsty or wish to "save" the person drinking any other member of the table can grab the beer and begin drinking.

If the person drinking finishes the beer prior to the roller rolling a 7, 11, or doubles the dice goes to the next person in line.
If the person drinking doesn't finish the beer prior to the roller rolling a 7, 11, or doubles they have to drink again.

Now the fun part; the person whose rolling the dice gets to decide how much or how little they want to pour into the glass. Although it sounds fun to give the person drinking a full glass of beer do remember that your only a few rolls away from switching positions. In the times I've played I have seen alliances formed, and enemies made.

During the game, if the roller rolling has the dice become sloppy and they roll off the table they forfeit their turns and must drink a full beer.

Warning: I recommend playing this game earlier in the night, as people will likely get drunk
