Funday Friday: #42--It's Time to Play DRINKO!

Welcome to another Funday Friday, guys.
ARE YOU READY FOR THE GAME OF YOUR LIFE?!? Well, you`ll have to settle for this one. I would.

The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, always the late night king of wacky, hilarious and awesome games, has created yet another gem this week. THIS is "Drinko". Yes, it looks exactly like "Plinko" from The Price is Right, and there are chips to throw down, but here's where the similarities stop. Instead of playing for money, the players (Fallon and whatever guest is Studio 6B that night-that being actor Paul Rudd) play against each other, with one player throwing a disk into a cup it would land in, and whatever concoction the disk lands, the other player must drink. It's hilarious even without mention!

Here are some highlights:
During Jimmy's turn, the disk landed in a cup of gravy, which Paul had to drink. It seemed like Gravy would be a choice of the game, and I had an instinct for that and I was right.
Later, when both guys went up on the top of the game base for he bonus round, both threw down, with one disk landing in a cup of tequila, and the other landing in...you guessed it, gravy. And since Jimmy landed last, he had to sip.

This game is hilarious, and a great excuse to drink. And of course it is another example of TTS' great line of gamessages that makes us laugh and enjoy.

And other thing before I drift into the night for the week, congrats are in hand for the crew of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy
Fallon , as it has been nominated for the Prime time Emmy Award for Outstanding Variety Talk Series! Congrats to Jimmy and the writers, producers and The Roots, and everyone else on the staff for the we major coup.

And that does it for this week. See you all next week for another fun article or video I dug up the day before to spotlight.
