THE ELIAN GONZALES DRINKING GAME Some are getting tired of this ongoing saga. Since the media won't give it a rest and move on, we recommend playing the following game during any network or local news shows, "special reports," news magazines (i.e., Dateline, 20/20, etc), talk shows, or any other appropriate TV shows. Guaranteed to make watching this story more entertaining or your money back! Beverages required to play the game: Each player must have a beer handy, a liquor appropriate for pouring shots is also required (tequila or rum is preferred). Rules of Play If a TV announcer says "Castro" everyone in the room must salute with their left hand. The last person to do so must take a shot. If anyone salutes with their right hand accidentally, they also have to take a shot. If the photo of the SWAT "gunman" is shown, everyone must act scared. The last person to do so must take a shot and then go into a closet until he is "rescued" by another player. If the TV announcer says "fisherman" everyone must press their palms together and make a swimming move with their hands. The last person to do so must chug whatever beer remains in their glass. If a child psychologist is interviewed everyone must stroke his/her chin and say "I see". The first person to do so becomes the "psychologist" and gets to administer shots to any players he/she deems in need of mood improvement. During any interview of a Member of Congress, everyone must shout, "bullshit!" The last person to do so drinks. If the TV announcer says "Miami relatives" everyone must shout out either "Lazaro" or "Marisleysis". A count is made of how many players said each name. Everyone who called out the more popular name has to take a drink of beer. Whenever the station goes "live to Little Havana" everyone must stand up and dance. The last person on their feet has to do a shot. If Marisleysis is shown crying everyone must yell "knock it off" and then take a drink of beer. If Juan Miguel Gonzales is shown carrying his "other son" everyone must yell "wahhhhh" like a baby for as long as they can on one breath. The last person to stop gets to pick a person to do a shot. If Elian Gonzales returns to Cuba with his father, everyone shouts "Thank God." The game is then over
