"RULES of Shot Glass Chess

1. Select your favorite alcoholic beverage and pour it into your opponent's 16 glasses. The following quantities are our recommendations, discovered after extensive research and development:
Pawn: 0.5 parts
Bishop: 1 part
Knight: 1 part
Rook: 2 parts
Queen: 3 parts
King: 2 parts
2. Begin the game of chess as normal. Whenever a player makes a capture he must drink the contents of that piece.
3. Illegal moves are permissible as long as neither player notices.
4. The losing player must drink his own king as the final ignominy of defeat."

 

Good golly, talk about fugged up!

 

[farstar]

nice find, a descriptive title would be good too

 

[Mephistokur]

I guarantee that after that it wouldn't be your favorite alcohol anymore.

 

[FFactory0x]

I own this game and its great

 

[tslak]

there changed the title to be a bit more descriptive.

 

[ChrisCramer247]

Its actually a great game, can double as quarters too if you like playing that.

We use beer shots or half the amount of shots with booze.

DO NOT USE ANYTHING MORE THE 30 PROOF UNLESS YOU CAN REALLY HOLD YOU BOOZE!

Ugh... that mess was just gross after we used some potent Vodka.

 

[Flair]

Sounds good, but not as much fun as my two favorites, Quarters and Beer Pong.

 

[Rob101]

lol had to show this to my roomates. We ordered one. Should make the next party interesting. Worst case scenario..we have an extra 32 shot glasses of varying sizes.

 

[torrid]

Does the glass top come with it? I envision a cheap cardboard board with cheap glasses. I could accept the cheap glasses if that glass cover comes with it.

 

[Amused]

Illegal moves are permissible as long as neither player notices.

There's a 10% off coupon floating around out there.

 

[amnesiac]

There's actually a LOT of 10% coupons floating around. GotApex has most of them under "KitchenHomeGadgets.com"

 

[csiro]

This will make a nice gift. Thanks

 

[rcrooks]

32 shot glasses for 21 bucks isnt bad in of itself, the glass board actually looks semi-classy, and if the shot glasses arent plastic Ill be pretty happy, I ordered one

Haha, I just called a drinking game involving chess classy

 

[AUMM]

mine came out to 13 bucks when i clicked the link

 

[rcrooks]

yea and then 10 bucks shipping minus like a buck and a half from a 10% coupon .. at least thats how mine worked out

Is it this set or what??

The description is identical but the glasses in this one look hella cool, I bet they just stole the description, put a nice looking glass table in their pic, and will ship it with chinsy shotglasses and a cardboard playing board

 

[concept236]

Hmmm ... it won't let me. It says "Sorry, we don't accept orders from your location." WTF?

 

[Hyudra]

ordered one here for the relatives... lol this will be good.

 

[Borealis]

The description is identical but the glasses in this one look hella cool, I bet they just stole the description, put a nice looking glass table in their pic, and will ship it with chinsy shotglasses and a cardboard playing board

Don't know about the playing board, but the shot glasses themselves are not nearly as cool as the one you linked. They look like normal shot glasses with an etched chess piece symbol on them. Bummer, but hey the price is fantastic for giving some as gifts. I bought two.

I once bought a checkers shot glass game. I have to imagine that chess would get a little too complicated after a couple of games.

 

[SuperFreaky]

This price is HOT! Please post details on the quality of the pieces and board when you get them!

I had found www.shotglasschess.com a few weeks ago. They want $99 for it! (yeah right)

I decided to try and make my own... Ross, TJ Max, Marshalls and Glass Bazarre had all the necessary components.

 

[lesterjr]

overstock has the same pictures here

and they say:

This beautiful chess set is created with the finest quality glass. Each of the playing pieces is a shot glass with the likeness of the chess piece on the glass for identification. All of the pieces measure 2 inches tall.

The chessboard itself is made of solid glass, padded on the underside to protect your tabletop. Measuring 14 inches square, this set makes an attractive and practical display piece, and an ideal gift for anyone who loves the fascinating game of chess.

so maybe it is a glass board and glass uh.. glasses

 

[Trianon]

looks like el cheapo version of 99 pound sterling set. I don't think the chess markings are etched, look painted on the glass, I bet they are gone after 3rd wash cycle in dishwasher. Almost ordered it, then looked at pictures again and decided to pass
