A square of 5 by 5 blocks in downtown Toronto, bordered on the west by china town, east by the 'fruit basket', south by the lakeshore, and ends in the north leading into hicksville suburbia. The 5 by 5 is a place populated by a colourful circus of extreme rejects and freaks from all walks of life and if there is anything at all happening it will be happening in the 5 by 5.
If you want to see what's on in Toronto, go to the 5 by 5, if you hit china town turn around, but if you're seeing a whole lot of transvestites and men holding hands, you've gone too far.

7 by 5 is a drinking game involving a deck of cards layed out in a 7 by 5 configuration.
Shuffle the deck, then start the game by revealing the first card on to the table.
The person left of the dealer (the caller) has to then call the next card being higher or lower than the played card on the table; this person also picks a spot to place the new card onto a position above, below or next to the played card. The dealer reveals the card, if the caller calls higher/lower cortectly then they do not have to drink, if they get it wrong then they drink.
Continue to the next caller, The revealed card must be higher or lower than all touching cards when placed in the grid.
Once the 7x5 grid is fully revealed then the next caller must pick a place ontop of the cards to be higher/lower than adjacent cards.
Special rules:
- The bomb; this is the 7 of hearts. When drawn the person whos go it is must finish there drinks. If they predict this card (instead of higher or lowrer) before the flip then everyone must finish their drinks. If someone calls the bomb and it is not the 7 of hearts then this person must finish their drink.
- Jokers ; similar to the 7 of hearts except only the two people sitting either side of the caller must finish their drinks if revealed and called. Finish your drink if you call it and its wrong.
Cards can be place on top/next to jokers too; it doesn’t count as a number required to be higher/lower.
