Ride the bus drinking game questions

We have some suggestions below but feel free to customize this part if you get ideas! The dealer places a face-down pyramid with 5 cards at the base, then 4 cards, then 3, then 2, and 1 at the top. Each row has a specific rule assigned to it. You can assign the 5 pyramid cards at the base to be Row 1 with then the 4 cards will be Row 2, etc. If a player has a matching card in their hand, they may lay their card down on the pyramid and ask another player to drink based on the row where their card matched.

After the last card of the pyramid has been revealed and all possible cards have been discarded, the remaining cards are counted. This is where you will see how the Ride the Bus drinking game got its name.

If two players have the same number of cards, the player with the highest card loses. If the player guesses correctly, the next question is asked.

If they guess wrong, they must drink and start again from the first question. The game ends when the player correctly answers all 4 questions in a row, or the entire deck of cards has been dealt.

Sounds easy enough, huh? Not really. As any failure at any stage means the player must start right back at the beginning at question one. As you can imagine, this usually ends up with one person in the game becoming completely plastered and it can be pretty hilarious to watch. As always, please drink responsibly! If the player riding the bus, in particular, appears to be too drunk, it may be time to stop the game.

For example, if your first card was a Queen, it is more likely than not the next card will be lower in value. If they are correct, they pick one player to drink. If they are wrong, they drink alone. This continues, again, until all players have seen their second card. In the event, the second card is of equal rank as their first, the player drinks as it is an automatic penalty. Again, while this is somewhat based upon luck, through logic and statistics players can deduce whether or not to a certain extent their third card will be within or outside the values of their first two cards.

But, if their cards were an Ace and a four, it is more likely the third card will be in between those two cards. As usual, if a player guesses correctly, they choose 1 person to drink. One player starts by picking the first card, then turns proceed by the player to their left following with their turn.

The dealer then draws a card and if the non-dealer was wrong, they must drink a shot or any amount of alcohol preestablished. If the non-dealer was right, then the dealer drinks. The dealer position then rotates to the left.

If the guess is incorrect, the player drinks the difference of their guess and the card.
