The Little League World Series Drinking Game

Last year, I asked if gambling on Little League Baseball made me a bad person. Well, due to her competitive nature, Mr.s J-Dub engaged in a bit of “one-upsmanship.” Since we are both adults who enjoy adult beverages and the Little League World Series, the creation of a drinking game really shouldn’t shock anybody.

Take One Drink When:

Except for the British Dubsists, “Shaggin’ Wagon” jokes will be frowned upon
  • Julie Foudy is shown with the “Swaggin’ Wagon” (double if she’s giving away ice cream)
  • Dugout the Mascot makes an on-screen appearance.
  • A discussion of the pitch count limits occurs.
  • “Not being afraid of the ball” is mentioned.
  • A coach visiting the mound says “we got this.”
  • Tim Kurkjian makes a short joke (double if it’s self-deprecating; triple if it’s a “dad” joke).

Take Two Drinks When:

I’ve heard of a “shortstop,” but this is ridiculous!
  • Tim Kurkjian is shown with a kid who towers over him.
  • Somebody says “you don’t have to be a big guy to generate power/throw hard” (double if Tim Kurkjian says it).
  • A kid names his favorite athlete as somebody who had at least part of their career before 1980.
  • A Little Leaguer is compared to a Major Leaguer (double if the kid has a “homage” nickname, triple if the comparison/nickname is because of a “physical resemblance”).

Take Three Drinks When:

The “Lamade Stadium Hill Chair: “there’s a guy right outside of the park on Highway 15 who will sell you one for $50
  • How to make a “Lamade Stadium Hill Chair” is discussed.
  • Sebastian Salazar begins interviewing somebody in Spanish who then decides to speak English anyway.
  • Any adult is shown sliding down the hill (double if it’s a Major Leaguer, triple if the adult wipes out)
  • The airliners bringing in the major leaguers are shown (you really should drink early and often on Big Leaguer Sunday).

All rules double on Championship Sunday. After all. since you’ll be too busy drinking, you won’t have time to be accused of being a terrible human being for gambling.

Take four drinks if you saw that ending coming…
