Diving Deeper:

As Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) and Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz prepare for Tuesday’s vice presidential debate, The Post has devised a drinking game to keep viewers entertained through what may be the final live face-off of the 2024 campaign. Whether you're rooting for the GOP or the Democrats, the lighthearted challenge offers a chance to break the tension with every key moment.

The rules are simple: hydrate regularly with water and have your alcoholic beverage of choice handy, but don’t forget the more outlandish items like hot dog water or moonshine. The game calls for various drink responses depending on what the candidates say.

Here’s a sneak peek at the rules:

  • Take a shot of water every time someone mentions President Biden or speaks about "unity" or "bipartisanship."

  • Sip your drink if Vance accuses the moderators of bias or if Walz brings up Trump’s legal troubles.

  • Take a shot when Vance warns of World War III or when Walz makes a joke about couches, a nod to past remarks targeting Vance.

The game doesn’t shy away from humor, with multiple opportunities to drink when unusual phrases like “childless cat ladies” or mentions of Springfield, Ohio, pop up. There’s even a wild card: if the debate turns into an all-out brawl, players are instructed to finish everything in their liquor cabinet.

Though this debate drinking game provides a fun distraction, it also reflects the intensity and unpredictability surrounding the 2024 race, especially with topics like abortion, immigration, and democracy likely to come up. So, whether you’re playing for fun or bragging rights, buckle up for what promises to be an entertaining night.
