Steemit World! I have an announcement to make, last night while out in Milwaukee at the Old German Beer Hall I discovered the most pointless amazing game to drink beer to.
HAMMER-SCHLAGEN!!!
The gist of the game is this:
- Each person has a nail that they tap into the stump to start the game
- Each person then takes a single swing at their nail trying to knock it flush into the stump
- If you knock you're nail in you're done, if you don't, you pass the hammer along
- The last person to knock their nail into the stump loses
Yep...that is the entire game, at least as far as I was told by the drunk wizard in the back of the bar. I don't really think there are any winners, just one loser ;) The best part really is how great it feels to swing a big hammer at nails in a stump, while drinking delicious German beer. Really, I can't think of anything better to do on a Friday night, even the Mrs got in on the action (with the baby beer glass)!
The fullsize beers were just a little bit bigger ;)
Apparently there are actual rules that I was able to find on the Hammer-Schlagen website. Our rules were a little more simple, didn't have to think too much, just hit the nail and enjoy the beer.
Have any of you ever played this game, comment below?
