4. Fast Break Frenzy: When the Lakers score off a fast break, the last person to raise their drink has to take an extra sip

5. Timeout Trivia: During timeouts, challenge each other with Lakers trivia questions. The person with the most correct answers at the end of the game gets to assign drinks to other players
