First Blog Post

It has been a long time coming for a blog to pop up here at DrinkingGames.beer! There is a first time for everything and in honor of our first post. It was a pleasant reminder of where all once had our first beer.

Who remember's their first beer?

Trevor's First Beer

Beer is something a lot of my family members have enjoyed. Growing up it was always interesting to me that so many people loved drinking. It clearly wasn't the taste that was attracting people to it. It had to be something else.

I had taken a few sips here and there just to see what it was all about. It was never enough to feel a buzz though. Until one day it was decided by a few friends and I. We were invited by some Australian dude and his parents to go have a "kickback" at his place. There would be lady friends, drinking, music, and fun would follow. 

After walking three miles to this place, we came inside and we were immediately welcomed in with a tall dark Guinness beer and a shot of straight vodka. What better way to enjoy my first true experience? Guinness and vodka? It was like these people somehow knew my future love language. Still to this day vodka or Guinness are still my favorite.

They handed me my glass of beer and I took a sip. Then I realized holy crap! This whole thing is mine to drink. My first full sized beer for the taking and a shot to brush it off with. 

Looking at one of my friends I put the shot up to my nose and smelled it. The fumes hit me and made me shiver me timbers. The both of us laughed and thought that maybe smelling it was a bad idea. We cheered to our first time drinking, threw back the shot, then chased it with our beer. It was rough at first but it quickly became glorious. 

Everyone kept drinking, dancing and having a good ol' time. Everyone enjoying each others company and laughing about absurd things. It came to a point where the host of the party got everyone's attention and told us all to hold up three fingers. The game he would like us all to play would be the infamous Never Have I Ever. I was really starting to feel the buzz and finally thought I understood how all this drinking stuff worked. The turn came to me and I came up with what I thought was a really clever answer. 

Never Have I Ever... played a drinking game. 

I kept up my three fingers and looked around as nearly the entire room had to put down a finger. The host of the party with his shrimp-on-the-barbie accent. Came over to me with a confused look on his face. He questioned whether or not to let it slide because technically I was playing a drinking game now. He finally remembered this was my first real time drinking and carried on with the game. Leaving more than half the room with one finger to go. 

A few people got eliminated and I was still going strong with 2 fingers left. Don't quite remember what the question was that got me. I was already feeling really warm inside at that time, but I do remember what happened next. It came down to one other person and me. This person I didn't even know had one finger up and I had my one finger up.

By this time my first beer was already long gone and I was halfway through the second beer I've ever had in my life. It was my turn and I said the most random thing I could come up with. Never Have I Ever had dreads. 

Surprisingly the girl I was up against put down one finger and took a drink. She yelled at me "How in the world did you know I had dreads?" and I just told her I had beginners luck I guess. It was hilarious! I was having a ton of fun but the fun didn't stop there. 

In fact, my answer sparked a whole room of conversation around who has and who hasn't had dreads. Majority of the people said no but then with the suggestion of this girl that just lost to me. Likely just trying to get revenge for losing. Suggested that maybe I try to get dreads because it would look cool with red hair. A few of the louder party members started chanting "Red dreads! Red dreads! Red dreads!" then everyone marched me into the bathroom. They told me to sit on the toilet lid and get ready for some excruciating head pain. 

I was moments away from getting dreads done by a group of drunk maniacs. I started thinking well how painful could it be really? I actually kind of like my head scratched and pain didn't really bother me any. Plus I was drunk and would probably be totally numb to how painful it would be if I was underestimating it.

Someone came back in with some sort of dread head shampoo stuff. They lathered it on my head which felt cool and refreshing at first. Then came the pain. 

They twisted, knotted, pulled and ripped away at my long red hair. This was during those emo days when literally everyone and their dog had long hair and skinny jeans. So the act of giving me dreads could not have come at a better time for us all. 

Everyone laughed, including myself, at how hilarious red dreads were going to be and at how much pain I was in. It hurt so freaking bad! Good thing I was wasted because and laughing my ass off otherwise I don't know if I could have pulled through. People were taking pictures of my agony, and one person even went and got me another shot to do right in the middle of it. 

They got one dread done right on the peak of my forehead. The pictures had me looking more like a dude with a unicorn mohawk. She finished off the one dread and dirtied it all up. Then we decided that one dread was enough and that this was going to take away from our night of drinking. 

So there I was, I walked out as the one dread red head and the party continued until midnight. It was time for us to leave but we got invited to go over to another person's place. We drank some more and a few people went streaking.

At the nearby park my friend and I started puking. It was terrible. Somehow that didn't stop me from climbing up on top of a ramada. All while the streakers were shouting "No don't climb it!" but I did it anyways. After that we needed to ditch the party to get picked up. 

It was a first beer and an adventure to cheers to! One that introduced me to Never Have I Ever and now a crap ton of other drinking games. I remember my first beer!
