The 12 pubs of Christmas

The 12 Pubs of Christmas has become somewhat of an Irish tradition. Like eating turkey and pulling crackers, one must also participate in the ’12 pubs’ in order for Christmas to be complete. If you don’t have any idea about what it consists you will find out it soon!

Rules

General rules:

1. Visit 12 pubs in one evening.
 
2. Have just ONE drink per pub (no more than one).

3. ONLY spend 30 minutes in each pub.

4. Everyone must wear a Christmas jumper.

5. Drink a pint of water every 4 pubs (we don´t want anyone to die on the way).
6. If you are Scottish and not wearing a kilt, you need to take an additional shot every 3rd pubs
7. For our healthy conscious friends who quit drinking, a new gummy is required every 3rd pub
8. If at anytime during the night any member of the group can shout out the phrase “SANTYS!!, WHAT IS YOUR PROFESSION??!!”, everybody in the group must stop what they’re doing and reply with “HOOO, HOOO, HOOO!!!” 

The most important rule is wearing a Christmas jumper. It has to be the most ridiculous and ugliest. Even you can find a jumper with Christmas lights!!!

Apart from wearing a Christmas jumper, you have to follow these 12 rules:
