This reminds me of one we played in college, called Jacks.

Requirement:  one pack of stupid students, one pack of ordinary 
playing cards.

To play:  Deal the cards about the table, the first player to receive 
a jack (or knave) nominates a drink (must be a spirit preferably), 
the second player also nominates a drink as before.  The third jack 
recipient orders and pays for BOTH drinks in a glass, and the fourth 
gets to drink them.  Hic!

Second variation - I call this the Moscow Rules, I didn't play but I 
was there.  Any number of players:  Each player takes one bottle of 
Stolichnaya vodka and drinks it as quickly as they can.  The first 
player to pass out gets a mohican haircut courtesy of the other 
players.  This really happened, November 1984, Pushkin Institue of 
Russian Language, Moscow.  The "winner" was a very bizarre irishman 
called Owen.  I assure you, having a Mohican haircut in Soviet Russia 
in 1984 was a very definite statement.  If he's posting here, HI, 
howarya.
