Ever play the "Bob" drinking game? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

There is a drinking game called "Bob".

Basically a group of people buy liquor, and watch the Bob Newhart Show.

Everytime anyone says the word "Bob" one has to drink.

It also works with "Mary" on the Mary Tyler Moore Show, although I would change the rule and make a drink mandatory when "Lou" or "Mr. Grant" was said.

The way I heard it you have to take a drink when someone says "Hi Bob".

yea, that's what I heard too. I've never heard about it with "THE MARY TYLER MOORE SHOW" though.

Sounds like a fun game! Sadly I have on one to play with, no one I know watches classic tv. But I would do that.
