I tried looking on google and I can't find the answer.

What's it called when you challenge someone to drink shots and you have to keep drinking until the other person passes out?

There's lots of movies about this but I don't know the term.

I have never heard of such games. It sounds scary. Passing out, what if I hit my head? Would people call 911 if I pass out or just let me lay there? I know someone who had alcohol poisoning and almost died, he had to be put in chronically induced coma.

Is this game for real or just in the movies?

People do it, but I'm unsure why. I do enjoy alcohol, but shouldn't. I do my best to only have a little. My prior comment was joking, though in poor taste.

go directly to jail do not pass go lol

ok seriously this was a 1960's drinking game called pass out that is now illegal due to drinking until the other person passes out can and may end in murder/ homicide charges due to alcohol poisoning here in the USA. some frat houses try and get away with it and when caught the frat house is closed down and the colleges close that fraternity permanently because its usually part of hazing which is also illegal.
Thanks for this!

It's simply called the Pass Out Game. There's a ton of foolishness where alcohol and youth is concerned.

I forget what we called it in my early 20s. We also used to do the “waterfall” where you start drinking and then the other and other the first person who stops then it’s up to the other person to do so. The person at the end of the line would get so loaded though because who ever started the waterfall usually drinks slowly and the person at the end gets screwed and has to drink multiples.

When I used to think of shots as a game I think of the thing called the meter stick. Where you get the meter stick of shots and if you could down them all before your opponent does you win free drinks on the house. And the other person has to pay for both meter sticks of shots were usually was like $50 each for a meter stick.

It might have been joking & in poor taste but very accurate.

Alcohol poisoning & death are a REAL possibility when one drinks that much also. If not up to Russian roulette I wouldn't suggest this either.

Unaluna also called it pretty good for women who do this:

Drinking to excess is never a good thing even if people do it & kinda get away with it for awhile. It can do serious damage to body & brain even if it is called "a game"
