Drinking Chess

Not sure if this thing exists or not. The simple rule would be: you drink as many shots as enemy pieces you take.

Chess has an intimate relationship with alcohol, and there are many good examples in the history of our game. We do not endorse any abuse here, though. Just a funny thing.

Berlin Alexanderplatz

Berlin Alexanderplatz. January 2007. A table in a café. 4x4 chessboard which includes every single piece, but the Rook appears twice. It is hard to determine the colour of some of the pieces as only the Bishop and the Knight are totally White.
