Tonight the Irish Christmas is officially kicked off as the RTÉ Late Late Toy Show returns to our screens.
Yesterday we whet your appetite in preparation for the greatest television event of the year and
listed the twelve things that are guaranteed to happen on the Toy Show. This evening we're offering to wet your appetite as well.
The Late Late Toy Show drinking game is now a thing thanks to
lizardking99 over on Reddit.
Kick off is tonight on
RTÉ One at 9.35pm so there's still plenty of time to get a few beverages, be they alcoholic or not, in and slip into something comfy before you sit back and enjoy two and a half hours of fun, toys, and Tubs making an eejit out of himself all in the name of television.
The Late Late Show Drinking Game:
What you'll need: TV
A few good mates, who will later reveal themselves to be terrible people
Copious amounts of alcohol
The rules couldn't be simpler; all you need to do is drink when...
