    Inspired by KTRIC's thread on the Oktoberfest here, it made me think - what are the things a Brother has to do at least once in a lifetime?

    Cycle drunk. T'is quite an experience, especially when you crash into a parked Mercedes-Benz E-Class....

    Oktoberfest for sure ... a BGRH road trip will be taking place next year.

    Be there.

    Yes. I'm serious.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,584 ✭✭✭✭Creamy Goodness


    i hope it's a road trip in which one of the brothers won't have to drive :D

    Done that, minus the Merc. Did however manage to somehow go over the handlebars without actually hitting anything. It was ok though, I managed to cushion my landing with my face. Not ideal when you wear glasses, I might add.

    I'm not talking about THOSE!! As we both know, there is a definite distinction between a ladies lounger and a brotherette. A brotherette's rightful place being the bar. Now. You're not going to argue with me are you buddy?

    Done that too. Far foo often, and have indeed done the crash into a parked car bit.

    Each brother should do at leat one pilgramage to the Guinness brewery, and spend plenty of time on the bar at the end of it.

    Make a sandwich that has lots and lots of layers after filling your wellingtons:D

    Mmmmmm nyom


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,179 ✭✭✭FunkZ


    Drink a litre of very cheap Spanish whiskey in under an hour, straight as well. It's not a pleasant experince. But it is AN EXPERIENCE!

    Pass out on my sofa and then have bacon sarnies handed to you on said sofa, the next morning


  • Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 21,504 Mod ✭✭✭✭Agent Smith


    wake up in a diffrent country, or at least by border police demanding to see your passsort.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,919 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Smoke cigars and drink booze in a Vegas strip club along with 12 other brothers surrounded by beautiful women.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 26,567 ✭✭✭✭Fratton Fred


    Skinny dipping after a session.


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 10,661 ✭✭✭✭John Mason


    Skinny dipping after a session.

    done, many times


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,183 ✭✭✭✭Will


    Start easy;

    Walk around in your boxers the whole day

    when someone asks you to do something say "let the wimmins handle it" then saunter off scratching your arse

    Drink until you can't feel feelings anymore

    Leer at women and get caught

    Eat a whole packet of something on your own, it can be biscuits, cake, sausages etc

    Attend a BGRH event

    Touch Ginnyjo's hair - it is awesome

    attend oktoberfest

    when your woman is giving out to you, smile, wink and slap her on the ass then run for your life!

    I have run out of ideas but more will arrive in time... just ask yourself 'what would a brother do in your situation?'

    oh oh, make fun of and emasculate 'men' who eat salad... :pac:

    Play football drunk in the snow with a white ball :D

    ******



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,957 ✭✭✭trout


    Play rugby, at 2 in the morning (stark bollock naked) in the fountain that used to be in Eyre Square, using a bottle of cider for a ball.

    For full effect, break your best friend (and best man's) nose ... and say it had to happen ... pour encourager les autres. Remind him of this phrase for at least 10 years, and never apologise.

    In keeping with trout's rugby theme...

    When playing on tour, depart the scrum to puke on the sideline.

    Fart in the same scrum on your return.

    I've done that during Sunday morning football more than once.

    middle of January, pissing down with rain, worst hang over ever and playing against a team that have just escaped from Broadmoor hospital. it's called fun apparantly:D

    Used to do that once a season ... never mind once a lifetime.

    I once puked in the scrum (just a little) and the wimpy prop I was grinding down tried to pull back from the stench.
    He ended up collapsing the scrum ... and guess where he landed :D

    I'd call that a perfectly executed scrum. :D

    Tried many times and failed (not a lot of mercs about!!!) also did it once on a micro scooter, hit a curb and did a somersault in the middle of Harcourt St. If I'd been quick I would have passed a cap around and posed as a busker to the crowds of onlookers:D

    Dutch oven your other half multiple times


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,264 ✭✭✭✭jester77


    Fall out of a pub in a different country on a Monday morning around about the time you should be going into work back in Ireland, phone work and leave a very professional answer on the receptionists answering machine saying that you won't be at work today because you are sick.... and then find out a few days later that you were actually talking to the receptionist and not the answering machine!

    Yeah, I hate it when receptionists say "beep"

    Other things to do... shoot a gun.
    I took an NRA pistol course in the States, tis worth doing if only to pin up the paper firing range target on your desk as a warning to others.

    Not sure if the NRA do a grenade class... will have to check.

    Charter a 40' catamaran in Brisbane and sit back and drink beer while the rest of the lads take turns at sailing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,198 ✭✭✭✭Crash


    white water canoeing, stood on top of a glacier.*
    Did those two - both among the most fun things i've ever done. Sliding back down sections of said glacier on your arse only makes it better ;)

    The good news: The Oktoberfest is the Business. :D

    The bad news: Once you have been, you will want to go back every year. Thats how good it is. :cool:

    Count me in for next year. But, book early - January, February would be a good time to book.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,558 ✭✭✭SmileyPaul


    this may not seem very hardcore for brother but I am not insane!
    get drunk then when you are about to break the seal (pee for the first time of the night) you must be already very drunk by the way :P
    anyways as you pee.... chug your can its the best feeling ever! getting rid of bad liquids while refilling on gooduns
