The Prof Brian Cox Drinking Game, Glastonbury 2013 Edition

[Joely]

I thought it could be fun for anyone going to see Brian Cox, I've amended the rules from the normal version. If you want to play along, please print and bring with you, I will take a few copies to hand out.

I have heard Brian Cox talk about the game and he seems quite pleased it exists, so I think he should find it funny.

[Christophales]

I never thought I'd see a drinking game involving the Chandrasekhar Limit! I'm in, see you there

[Krazypinkminx]

I would be dead

[Helencholy]

Making a mental note of this, love it.

[daniel.k]

You put your finger under the level your drink is up to and drink down to the bottom of your finger, usually a decent swig.

[Chrispy77]

Surely the Chendrasekhar Limit is worth more than one??? I am so there for this.

[Bathimp]

I am already chuckling at the thought of this.

Will have to be careful what I am drinking at the time!

Thanks Joely

just looked on the Glasto site http://www.glastonburyfestivals.co.uk/areas/the-park/the-free-university-of-glastonbury and it says he'll have a special guest on with him (as well as Shaun Keaveney)

"This session will also include a special guest who arguably knows more about time travel than even Prof Brian Cox"

who could that be then?

doesn't look like i have anything planned for around then so will definitely try and check it out and get absolutely hammered
