I HAVE A SIMPLE GAME THAT ANYONE CAN PLAY. ALL YOU NEED IS FOUR OR MORE PEOPLE, A QUARTER, A TABLE, AND SOME BEER.

EVERYONE GATHERS AROUND THE TABLE IN A CIRCLE.

ONE PERSON STARTS THE GAME BY FLIPPING THE QUARTER IN THE AIR. BEFORE THE QUARTER IS SHOWED TO ANYONE THE PERSON TO THE RIGHT OF THE FLIPPER HAS TO CALL EITHER HEADS OR TAILS. IF THE PERSON CALLING THE QUARTER IS WRONG, THEN THEY HAVE TO TAKE A DRINK FROM THEIR BEER, AND THE PERSON WHO WAS FLIPPING THE QUARTER THEN SPINS THE QUARTER ON THE TABLE. THE SAME PERSON THAT IS IMMEDIATELY TO THE RIGHT OF THE QUARTER HOLDER HAS TO DRINK THEIR BEER UNTIL THE QUARTER IS STOPPED BY THE SPINNER. WHEN THE QUARTER IS STOPPED, THEN THE PERSON WHO WAS CHUGGING THE BEER HAS TO CALL HEADS OR TAILS AGAIN. (IF THE QUARTER IS SPUN OFF THE TABLE THEN THAT IS CALLED SLOPPY QUARTERS AND THE PERSON FORFEITS THEIR PRIVILEGE TO FLIP AND SPIN TO THE NEXT PERSON AND THEY HAVE TO TAKE A DRINK FROM THEIR BEER). THEN THE CYCLE CONTINUES UNTIL THE PERSON CALLS THE QUARTER CORRECTLY, EITHER HEADS OR TAILS.

WHEN THEY CALL IT RIGHT, THE QUARTER IS THEN PASSED ON TO THE PERSON WHO WAS DOING THE DRINKING AND THEY NOW BECOME THE FLIP SPIN PERSON. THIS CONTINUES AROUND THE TABLE UNTIL YOU FEEL LIKE STOPPING.

THERE ARE VARIATIONS TO THE RULES LIKE IF THE PERSON FINISHES THEIR BEER ON A SPIN BEFORE THE QUARTER IS STOPPED BY THE SPINNER, THEN THEY HAVE TO DRINK AND GIVE UP THE QUARTER.
