10.17 - Best Drinking Game Ever

The antiques roadshow might be one of my favorite programs on tv. It still blows my mind to this day that this shit sitting around peoples house can be worth so much. I was sitting around watching it today trying to guess the final price of items... when it hit me, the only thing this show is missing is a good drinking game. Hell anything these days can be turned into something which involves getting drunk, why can't it be a show created for people over the age of 75.

So I sat down and made it happen:

Antiques Roadshow Drinking Game

1 Drink

-Whenever Victorian Age is spoken

-When they say that damage will reduce the auction price

-Whenever someone says “well publicized auction”

-If the person says they bought the item in question at a garage sale

-If the item was found in the closet or attic

-If the item is missing a lot of pieces

2 Drinks

-Whenever the person looks really disappointed in the estimated price

-An old women brings in a civil war gun

-If the appraiser has to cut off the person from telling the history of the piece

-If something really heavy is brought in and turns out to be worth nothing

-If the item is ‘still in use’ in someone’s house

3 Drinks

-If a man brings in a doll

-It someone on screen is in a wheel chair

-Any item worth fewer than 50 dollars

-If the appraiser has a mustache longer then 2 inches

Chug

-When something is worth more then 100,000 dollars

-When the item turns out to be ‘forged by an expert”

-If something important is broken by mistake

-Whenever someone says "This piece belongs in a museum"

    Jp, this is possibly your best post to date. It sounds like the game would work perfectly. I would add 'This piece belongs in a museum' as a chug. top
