Get the Counterproductive Workplace Behaviour mug.An improved variation of Slap Bag, originating in Laramie, Wyoming. This game involves one party-goer pulling out a bag of wine, chugging from said bag, then enthusiastically yelling, "BEAVER! BEAVER!" Another party-goer is then obligated to shout out, "Wine Receiver!!!" Once this 'receiver' call is made, the original party-goer must toss, throw, or chuck the aforementioned bag of wine toward the receiver. The receiver will then catch and chug from the bag, shout out "BEAVER BEAVER," and repeat the action in perpetuity until the bag has been fully drained of its contents.
