Do it Tonight: VP Debate

The vice-presidential debate between Joe Biden and Paul Ryan starts tonight at 9, and we have a little Reading Days-specific suggestion for our of-age readers – play Time Magazine’s VP debate drinking game.

This game is guaranteed to put a happy spin on even the dullest of partisan bickering sessions: sample directions include “If Biden says ‘Champ,’ ‘Sport,’ ‘I’ll be brief,’ or ‘literally,’ take a good hard look at your glass, and take a drink” and “If Paul Ryan mentions his mom and ‘$716 billion’ when asked about Medicare, finish your drink.” 

Drink responsibly, and don’t forget to vote! (Once you’ve sobered up, that is.)

• What: Vice-presidential debate, shown on all major networks
• Where: Anywhere you can find a TV, but Gund Gallery or Peirce Pub might be your best bet
• When: 9 p.m.
