Spotting Cues

   Whenever a giant character balloon floats by, take a sip. Bonus sip if it’s a character that debuted before 1990.

2. A Marching Band
   Every time a marching band plays, take a drink. Extra sip for any impressive baton twirling.

3. A Celebrity Appearance
   When a celebrity makes an appearance, toast to their success and take a sip. Double it if they attempt to sing live.

4. Santa Claus
   When the jolly man in red makes his grand entrance, it’s time for a celebratory drink.

5. Broadway Performance
   Spot a Broadway performance, and take a sip. If you can name the show, everyone else takes a drink.

   Take a sip every time a host mentions the weather, the size of the crowd, or their favorite float.

Bonus Round
