A mindless game that actually requires a certain amount of coordination. Supplies: people and beer (as usual), a quarter (hence
the name), and a shallow juice-type glass. Or, for a real challenge, and a longer game, use a shot glass with a reasonably
wide rim. All players sit around a table, or similarly hard surface, and, in turn, try to bounce the quarter off the table
into the juice glass. If successful, the player tells any other player to have a drink, as well as receiving another turn.
If the player fails, play passes to the next in the circle. If the player is fortunate enough to make three bounces in a row,
this player may make a rule. Anything goes. Some favorites are: "Can't say drink, drank, or drunk." "Can't point with your
fingers." "No proper names." "Have a drink before each attempted bounce." "Every time Joe drinks, Jane drinks too." if any
rule is broken during the course of play, the violator subsequently "consumes some beverage."
