Your Official Penn State-Illinois Drinking Game

The time has come for the first away game of the season, folks.

Whether you’re watching from a bar, a frat, an apartment with friends, or in your Penn State fan cave, the booze will keep coming in this weekend… just like the wins from our Nittany Lions. Away games are a great chance to let your body rest in between the excitement of home games, but you can’t let yourself get too comfortable.

Without further ado, let’s drink get into it:

  • If you’re watching the game in State College, crack open a brew and take a sip.
  • Take a shot if you went home this weekend. We don’t blame you.
  • Take a few sips if you’re in comfy clothes or PJs. Once again, we don’t blame you.
  • If you took a road trip to good ‘ol Illinois, major props to you. Take a shot. And then a sip. That’s probably all there is to do in Illinois.
  • If someone whips out homemade buff chick dip, dig in, then take a swig.
  • Take a sip every time a Penn Stater is shown on TV. Take another sip if they’re wearing white.
  • Every time Drew Allar throws a touchdown pass, give your buddies a fist bump and take a swig.
  • If Illinois scores a touchdown, finish your drink and punch a pillow (not your wall).
  • If Penn State scores on a t-formation touchdown, finish your drink. Run the damn ball.
  • If Beau Pribula gets into the game, have a swig or two.
  • Take a shot every time someone on the broadcast says “nine overtimes.” It’s been a long two years.
  • Have a drink if Olu Fashanu lifts someone in the air. The bromance is real.
  • Take a long sip if KeAndre Lambert-Smith makes a 30+ yard reception.
  • Take a shot if Riley Thompson puts a punt inside the 20-yard line. Punters rock.
  • If James Franklin yells at a ref, take three sips because why not? It be like that sometimes.
  • If Penn State misses a field goal, sling down a shot and take a lap. Breathe.
  • Take a shot if Kalen King makes an interception. King shit.
  • If Penn State wins, chug the rest of your drink and get hype for the White Out next weekend!

As always, be safe and have fun. Cheers!
