Chumbawumba Challenge 

The chumbawumba challenge is a drinking game that originated at Indiana University that is named for the band Chumbawumba and their most famous song 'Tubthumping.' During the chorus of the song the band sings "you take a whiskey drink, you take a vodka drink, you take a lager drink, you take a cider drink"

Those attempting the challenge are to take all four drinks while the song is playing and are to finish all four before the song ends. Sounds simple but in actuality is quite difficult.

The Chumbawumba

Where one drinks first a shot of whisky, then a shot of vodka, then a lager (beer), and finally a drink of hard cider, in quick succession.
