Smashy Canny is a drinking game most commonly played by sports teams.
Rules of the Game A group of people stand in a circle with an unopened 440ml can of lager, cider any other carbonated drink (330ml cans are not recommeded due to their greater strength though the game can, surprisingly be played with a Tesco can of wine - go figure). Each player takes it in turns to smash the can on their forehead 3 times before passing the can to the next person.
Eventually, the can will begin to split and spring a leak. Contenders must then consume some of the spraying liquid (say for 2-3 seconds) before continuing the game by smashing the can on their forehead an passing it on. The loser of the game is the person who is holding the can when the can stops spraying. He/she must then consume the remaining contents of the can.
This game can be varied by shaking the can before each person bashes the can on their head and/or bashing the can multiple times upon the forehead.
Player Tips To minimise bruising it's important to use the top of your forehead. Too low and you have some hard to explain bruises when you get to work on Monday. Too high and, well it just hurts.
For larger groups, introducing a second or third can to the circle / moving in the same or opposite direction can add much entertainment value. Beware confusing the striking and consumption motions which may result in an emergency trip to the dentist!
