- You flip it and there, see? He's a natural, he's a natural!
- Thank you. - Go Catherine, go Catherine!
Yes Catherine!
♪ (industrial intro) ♪
- (FBE) So today we have our college kids here
to teach our elders some of the most popular
drinking games of today.
- Cool! - I am so excited! (laughs)
- I do know how to drink already pretty well,
but I'm always glad to learn a new way.
- Do I remember doing drinking games in college?
No, I went to school when it was dull.
- I can drink, I mean, just hand me the bottle
and the shot glass, I know what to do.
- I don't even need the shot glass, like, let's go!
- Oh, okay, she can teach me something then.
- Yeah!
- (FBE) So the games that you'll be playing today
are Beer Pong, Quarters, and Flip Cup.
We do want to note that people around the world
play these games in different ways, but our producers
have decided on a single way that the college kids
will be teaching them today.
Once you learn how to play, you will then play one round
of each game against each other to see who is better at the game.
College kids or elders?
- She's definitely more of a drinker than me, probably.
- I have no idea.
- (FBE) The first game that you'll be teaching the elders how to play
is Flip Cup. - Okay.
So initially, there's gonna be alcohol in there.
- Good. - So you have to drink it.
- Okay, oh really, I have to? - You have to.
- Oh God okay, I'll force myself.
- Unfortunate, but you have to. - I'll force myself.
- All you have to do is flip the cup like that. (laughs)
- Yeah, the simpler it looks, the harder it is,
I have found out, that's some elder wisdom.
- You balance the cup so that there's like a little bit
hanging off of the edge. - Alright.
- And then you flip it over like that, and you've gotta get it.
- Aw geez, just give me the alcohol now!
- You flip it and there, see? He's a natural, he's a natural.
- Thank you, thank you. (laughs)
- So that's the goal.
You just do it over and over until it like sticks.
- Voila!
- (FBE) So now that you know how to play,
we're gonna see who is the master of this game?
Whoever flips the cup first will win!
Are you ready to play?
- Let's do it.
- (FBE) Haley, you can go ahead and pour the beer,
since you are ring leader here.
- Oh, she's gonna pour for me too?
- (FBE) Yeah, she's gonna pour it for ya.
- Okay!
- (FBE) It's gonna foam.
- No it's not!
I'm a pro, what are you saying? I'm good!
- It didn't foam!
- Oh my goodness. - Oh God.
- I'll fill this around there. - I can't believe this.
We're drinking! - Isn't this fun?
- It's great!
- (FBE) In three, two, one, go!
♪ (upbeat music) ♪
- There's so much foam! I messed up!
- I can't drink! - (laughs) That is so cute.
(bell rings)
- I can't drink that fast. - I know, it is hard.
It hurt me.
Yeah, high five! - But I lost.
- No high five.
- (FBE) Oh, other way, Mark. Other way.
- Which? - Other way.
(bell rings) - Oh shoot.
- Yo, see? - I did it on the first time.
- I did, it took me like four times. - Oh my gosh, I just forgot!
(bell rings)
- What's up? (laughs)
- See, I had beginner's luck last time.
(bell rings) (laughs)
See, that one was better!
Hey, you did it! - Hey, woo!
I have a feeling we're gonna be going out drinking one night.
- (gasps) Yes please! - Oh, then we'll have to selfie it.
- Oh my God! - We'll have so much fun!
- (FBE) Alright, next up, you'll be teaching the elders
how to play Quarters. - Okay.
This is my mom's favorite game.
- What you'll have to do is you're gonna have to
try to make, bounce the quarter off of the table,
and make it into the... - I can't even hold on to the quarter.
- And make it, oh my God, I can't either!
The beer hit us already!
- The concept of the game is you take the quarter,
and you bounce it on the table,
and then you try to get it in the cup.
It's pretty hard.
- I suck at this one, so don't... - I'm hopeless.
- You know, we might be hopeless together, honestly.
- You gotta like be very like delicate with your hand,
'cause like if you slam it too hard, it'll just like...
- Make it go crazy.
- Ah! - Ah, you did it!
- Welp.
- Thank you, thank you.
- (FBE) So now that you know how to play,
we're gonna see who's the master of this game.
- Okay.
- (FBE) Whoever gets a quarter in the shot glass first will win,
and the loser will drink. - Okay.
- (FBE) If you both lose, you both drink.
- We're both gonna drink in this one!
- (FBE) Are you ready? - She's like "just lose." (laughs)
- (FBE) Three, two, one, go!
♪ (upbeat music) ♪
- (Haley) You gotta be gentle!
- Dude, this is... - Oh, that was close!
- That isn't bouncing anywhere! Thank you.
- You have to angle it right. How many shots do we get?
- Oh yeah, missed by that much!
- Nope, oh!
We might be here all day.
- Hey I'm not mad at that.
They might just have to go and get me another beer.
- Dude, I haven't even like hit.
(bell rings) - Bingo!
Oh! Ugh, my nephews,
you're gonna want me on your team next time we party!
Okay, I'm just sayin'!
Ah, a beer sounds good right now. (both laugh)
- (FBE) I don't know, I kinda think you should just...
- Mark doesn't mess around.
- Do not try this at home.
- I really want you to beat me.
- (Vera) You're gonna have to sit here all day.
Or stand here all day. - You just spin.
- Okay, I give up. (laughs)
- Can we just drink the beer?
- I'm getting so close every time.
- (FBE) Alright guys.
We're gonna have to call a draw here.
- It's fine. - Alright.
- (FBE) So unfortunately, since you both lost,
you're both gonna have to drink.
- Yes! - (FBE) Finish your beers.
- Cheers! - Cheers.
(both laugh)
Actually this is a good thing. - Yeah, it's fine.
- I can use more!
- (FBE) Unfortunately, I don't think anyone won that one,
so you're both gonna have to drink. - She's ready!
- I'm ready! - (laughs) Cheers!
- Cheers! - Woo, woo, woo!
- Ah, oh my goodness!
I guess I'm not being a very dignified old lady, am I?
- But you're doing great! - Yes I am, so are you!
- Thank you! - See, we're doing great.
- Thank you, we're doing good.
- (FBE) Lastly, you'll be teaching Rondell how to play Beer Pong.
- Okay. - Gorgeous.
- Now that should be easier.
- Yeah, this one's the OG.
- This is probably the most popular...
- I have seen the kids play this one, yeah.
- What you do is we'll fill up the cups with beer.
- You ever throw trash away in the trash can?
- Which one? - Like throwing trash away
in a trash can.
- No. - Really, come on.
That's the most relatable thing.
- You're gonna toss the ball into, try to make it into my cups.
- Okay.
- So if you make it into one of my cups,
I have to drink the cup, and then the cup goes out to the side.
So then you'll only have two cups left.
- Oh that makes it harder though.
- It does, yeah. - Yeah.
- So at the point where you get to one,
then you just have to make it into that one cup.
But if you make it, you win.
- You could bounce or you could throw, either one works.
- Uh huh. - But if you bounce it in,
that counts as two cups.
'Cause like, go hard or go home, and like we're going hard.
- If you bounce it, the other person can swat it away.
So that's like the... - Oh!
So we got a little goalie action going on here if you bounce it.
- (FBE) Now that you know how to play,
we're gonna see who is the master of this game!
Usually you would go until all the cups are gone.
But since we don't have that much time,
you guys will play for three minutes,
and whoever has made the most cups at the end of three minutes will win.
- Okay. - Okay.
- Oh, I thought I'd sneak one in on him.
I had to go for it and give it a shot with the bounce.
♪ (upbeat music) ♪
Bingo! (laughs) - Alright.
Oh my God.
- Oops, okay, now what happens? I drink this one?
Take the ball out first, I guess. - Yes ma'am.
She's gotta chug it!
- (gasps) She did it! I get to drink?
- Yeah, you're welcome! - I'm sorry!
- Wait, so actually you're gonna drink...
- I can drink the one with the... - That I made it in.
Go Catherine, go Catherine! (laughs) Yes Catherine!
- Whoa!
- Dun-na, dun-na, dun-dah! I need an ovation here.
♪ (upbeat fanfare) ♪
And if I get it in that last cup, I win?
- I did it! - Oh, that was perfect!
- Yay, I should've been drinking when I was playing volleyball.
(laughs)
- Ah, I'm just trying to hit you, I'm sorry.
- Ah! - Oh she's gonna beat me.
- Yay! - She's gonna beat me.
- You can do it! - I know.
There it is. - Oh, there we go!
- Oh no, you gotta drink the one that I made.
- Oh sorry. - You're good.
- I'm not particular.
- And then you gotta move it. - Alright.
Oh, that was close!
- Woo! Two in a row, oh.
So if you make two in a row, then it's called heating up,
and then if you hit the third one, it's called you're on fire,
and if you hit the third one, then you get to shoot again
until you miss. - (FBE) Last shot here!
- Bingo, Bingo! - That's, we're tied!
- (FBE) Time is up! That is a tie!
- Ugh, go, go, go, go, go!
I don't know, is that what they do?
(both laugh)
- (FBE) Okay, like 10 more seconds.
- Oh come on! Yay, yay, yay yay yay!
- Yay! - Join me please!
We're done, so join me! - Okay, I'll join you.
- (FBE) Alright, time is up.
- Oh, are you kidding me?
Ah, you won! - I won, I like that one!
- (FBE) So time is up.
- Okay.
- (FBE) So Rondell, since you got more cups, you won this game.
- Hey! - Good job.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah!
See, now you'll be able to say,
there was this guy, he's coming for you.
I trained him, he's coming for ya!
- (FBE) So what was it like for you two to share this experience today?
- (laughs) It was very funny.
I wish I go to college today!
It's too more fun than when I went.
It was, you know, (burps) excuse me, woops! (laughs)
- That was amazing!
- Definitely a bonding experience.
- Yeah, it was, most definitely.
- Drinking games in general.
It's a fun way to get to know someone.
- I loved it, she's a very good teacher obviously.
And I'm always ready to learn new games.
- It was so fun! I loved it!
I'll do it again any day.
- (FBE) So Mark, you know, it's been a little while
since you were in college, but we're curious for both of you,
what is or was your drinking experience like in college?
- Wow.
We didn't play games. - Really?
- We were serious.
- I went to school in Wisconsin, so when the winter hit,
there was literally. - Oh.
- You can't go outside, there's nothing to do.
- Oh my gosh. - So all you do is just go get drunk.
- There was some time spent there, kind of like you know,
with your head on the curb or the head in the toilet
or hanging off the edge of the bed and wishing it would stop moving.
- I graduated college and my son was born six weeks later.
I was 20, but I was pregnant, I was married, but I couldn't drink.
- Wow.
- But you know, then realize that where I grew up,
in Uruguay, there was no drinking age.
Drinking was no big deal.
At 16th birthday parties, we had champagne.
- Pfft. - And nobody,
nobody got drunk that I know.
Not til I came here did I realize that drinking was such a big thing.
- I don't remember drinking games.
I just remember being glad to get ahold of liquor
and drinking it, you know, and just dancing and being crazy.
- My friends and I, we play a lot of drinking games,
like we actually play the Beer Pong a lot,
but we play it with shots of Tequila instead. (laughs)
- Wow! - Yeah. (laughs)
- Woo!
- (FBE) Finally, which generation do you think will be the champion
of the drinking games that you played today?
- Oh, the young ones. - No!
- The kids. - I think the elders.
I think you guys are gonna have some elders that come in
and are like "oh yeah, back in my day,
I used to play this." I think you guys got this.
- But you have to have the coordination.
And you guys have better coordination. - I wouldn't say that!
- I feel like the college kids have more experience.
- Me too. - But also,
slow and steady wins the race. (laughs)
- We have a way of doing things. - Yeah!
- You know, it's kinda like okay, I'm gonna draw
from years of experience, but honestly, honestly,
in this game, they got us.
- Oh, I think the college kids. - I was gonna say the same thing.
- Knowing my fellow elders, yeah, I think I may be
the captain of the team. (Kostas laughs)
- College. - I think college.
- Yeah, yeah. - 'Cause I feel like
these are things you see at every college party.
- And you see, that's good,
because then the elders get to drink more!
Win win, win win!
