The el ClasiCo MoRBo DRinking gaMe!

Take Real Madrid and Barcelona for example. There is so much morbo festering between these two sides that they would have to employ a very powerful priest to exorcise the phenomenon, always presuming that they wanted to. Its not merely that they hate each other with such an intensity that can truly shock the outsider, but that each encounter between them always has a new ingredient. This is the essence of morbo. It feeds off itself, and keeps growing until it becomes a self-regulating and selfperpetuating organism. -Phil Ball, Morbo In honor of what amounts to be one of the more crucial Clasicos in recent history, Ive devised the MORBO drinking game to keep your at a rising inebriation fit to match the rising intensity of this fascinating fixture. The game consists of 2 teams. Beer and at least one bottle of hard liquor are requiredas well as hot sauce, a washable marker, a salt shaker. If any of your sally-ass friends are drinking a cocktail, they can playbut they have to gel their hair to match Ronaldos for the entirety of the game. Drinking requirements are compound, for exampleIf Messi dribbles past 3 defenders, lays off to Xavi who assists Iniesta for a goal, while the commentator calls Messi a Wizard and the Camera switches momentarily to an angry Ronaldo, then Team Madrid drinks a full beer for the goal, 3 more fingers for Messis dribble, 2 more fingers for the Ronaldo face, followed by a shot, an admission of destiny, a good cry for the 2010 World Cup Final, all while making Ronaldos face. Team Barca will drink 2 fingers and cast as spell on the television. Both Teams begin with 100 points, and teams track their intake for scoring 12oz of beer: -1 Point 8oz of Sally-Assed Mix Drink: -1 Point Glass of Wine: -1 Point Shot: -2 Points The winning team will have the most points remaining at the end of the match. Happy drunk math to you all.
