Hello, My Name is Cliche

Materials Needed

  • Adhesive backed Hello my Name is... name tags for each guests

    • This game is great for adult Super Bowl parties where not everyone knows each other as it combines an ice breaker with a drinking game. And there is a lot of room for some fun innuendo that is sure to spark conversation with your party guests.

    Directions

    Get enough of those sticky name tags that that come pre-printed with “Hello, my name is…” on them for every guest. As the guests arrive give them a name tag with their name added and a personalize football cliche. For example for a guest named Mark his tag might read, ” Hello, my name is Mark and I am better than my record indicates“.

    Only one cliche per person, so once the cliche is used cross it off the list. For the rest of the party whenever an tv announcer uses that cliche during the game, Mark has to take a drink. For example if the announcer says, “The Giants have been far better than their record indicates this year” then Mark has to take a drink (or some other “punishment” like eating a SUPER hot chicken wing or hot pepper). You can assign the cliches to the guests yourself as they arrive, have a printed list and allow them to pick a cliche or let them suggest their own.

    Here are some suggested cliche phrases:
