Ask Europeans questions about their countries!

This was one of my favorite subreddits back on Reddit so I'd like to recreate it on Lemmy. If any Mod from Reddit would like to take over this community, I gladly hand it over to them.

Rules:

  1. When responding, mention which country are you from since we don't have flairs on Lemmy yet
  2. Be nice and polite
  3. No other rules so far, this is a small community so we don't need to make it a police state, we'll see what future brings

How common are 'drinking games' in your country? (self.askeurope)

When browsing a US centric web, I have a feeling that people always play some crazy games while drinking (or jump from roofs or slide stairs or something).

In Slovakia this is rarely the case, when you drink, you drink, you don't play games. We usually just talk, listen to music etc. The only time I saw some drinking games was on college and even that was rare.

Are drinking games common in your country? Do you have some country specific drinking game?

Edit: Not sure about the downvotes but I apologize if I offended someone, I meant no harm

American here, we're not always playing games while drinking. That's mostly reserved for parties, especially college parties. I'd say most times someone is drinking they're usually watching a sporting event or hanging out/talking. I'd say most adult Americans that drink only play drinking games a few times a year like at holiday/family parties.
