Drinking game for Beto O'Rourke-Ted Cruz debate tonight


Political debates are more fun when the television grown a little fuzzy at the edges and the number of candidates onstage has increased from two to four.

That's why we offer this drinking game for readers tuning in tonight's debate between U.S. Senate candidates Beto O'Rourke and Ted Cruz. If you choose to play, please imbibe responsibly, take Uber home from your watch party and make sure all the puke hits the trash can — especially if you're in someone else's house.


Required: Beer of your choice, hard liquor of your choice and a television tuned to the debate, which airs at 8 p.m. on KENS5 and C-SPAN.

Drink once from your beer if:
Beto uses a Spanish phrase
Ted describes his opponent as "too extreme for Texas"
Beto gives an example where he cooperated with a lawmaker from across the aisle
Ted claims marijuana is a gateway to opiate abuse
Beto mentions that he visited all 254 Texas counties
Ted describes the left as "angry," "unruly" or "filled with hatred"
Beto quotes from a Clash lyric (Crass, Gang of Four and Minor Threat are also acceptable)
Ted disparages tofu, bean sprouts, quinoa or other foods liberals are known to eat.

On exit-I found it. I hope Beto has been practicing. Weasel Face is so smug I could scream.
