MORE than 19,000 Facebook users have become fans of a TV drinking game created in the wake of the Queensland flood disaster.
The Queensland Flood Channel 9 News Drinking Game, which creators say was designed to "make light of a bad situation" was set up by an anonymous Queenslander less than 48 hours ago during Nine’s extended coverage on Tuesday night.
The game tells viewers to "take one drink" at various cues in the coverage including when a news reporter delivers their story standing in water, makes reference to the 1974 floods, or says certain words including "inundated," "unprecedented, "evacuation" and "rolling coverage".
Two, three, four and five drinks are allocated to other televised references like footage of people sitting on their roof, the SES helicopter or Suncorp Stadium, or when the phrase “Queensland’s Darkest Hour" is used.
