The
Box Game is where a number of lads, preferably in the range of 3 to 4, sink a 12
box of beer in quick succession, bar a certain number of bottles offered by the equation: x = n(lads). With this equation expressing the number of beers that must be retained, they are then removed from their
box. With the
box, the smoker of the group shall light the top of the
box, and it is then a competition in sequence, much like a spelling bee, to place the
box upon one's head and scull their beer, and only then can the
box be placed upon the next candidate's head. The game stops when somebody quits as the
box quickly incinerates towards one's cranium.
It is an increasingly competitive code, with a special appearance at the 'Games of the I Olympiad', today known as the Summer Olympics, which were held in Athens, Greece in 1896.
