"Back-it-up or wet yourself" ??

[many944s]

Has anyone else heard of this "game"??
My wife brought home a copy of the Exponent, the Purdue University Newspaper, that had an article about this new game students are playing called "back-it-up or wet yourself".

Let's say someone makes a strange claim, say "I can drink a 40 in 2 seconds".
If you challenge them to prove it, the either have to "back-up" their claim by chugging a 40 in 2 seconds, or they have to piss themselves.

Believe it, the article had pictures that various students had taken of people that couldn't back up their claims!!

I'm not sure what's worse. The fact that this "game" ever came to be, or that someone willingly would stand there and piss themselves because they made a boastful comment?!?

Anyone else heard of this??

I don't think you can back it up ... better go ahead and wet yourself.

No fear of alcohol poisoning, eh?

Tell me this wasn't a game developed after about 2 cases of some really cheap beer at some dingy frat house where the rugs have already been saturated in puke and urine.

I've heard of a similar one from my daughter at the Oktoberfest where contestants have to drink 60 35mm film cannisters of beer in an hour. Many wet themselves. Another from Milu was the Student game in London where students would get out at each tube station on the circle line, drink a half pint of beer at the nearest pub and then go on to the next station. If you had to pee you would have to go back two stations. The objective was to make it all the way round the circle line.
