Moonlighting

Drinking Game

---

The following "Moonlighting Drinking Game" was proposed by J.J. Burgund, with a small handful of additions from me and others. If you've been around on the Internet for very long, you've probably seen one of these before. The rules are simple: while watching Moonlighting, when you see anything on the list, you take the indicated number of drinks.

This list is a modest beginning, and there are still lots of good potential additions to this list. Contributions are welcome. Send them either to J.J. or to me.
