Jim, your chat about the various drinking games that the Germans love, brought to mind my first encounter with such. It was during a trip down to Bavaria and a group of us were having a drink in this Gasthoff. This middle aged gent came into the bar and seemed very happy to see us in there. It didn't take him long to introduce himself and, before we could say Adam, he had ordered a huge stein of beer (must have been three litres!) and was encouraging us to drink! Being British and squaddies to boot, we didn't need much encouragement and it wasn't long before the stein was emptied, much to the Germans consernation! He straight away ordered another and, again, ordered us to "Drink!" Again, it was finished, by one of us, and again, he ordered another, this time though with an obvious edge to his voice. On, an inevitable, trip to the toilets for a spot of relief, one of us was put in the picture by a local girl. Whoever finished the stein, the person to his right paid! Purely by chance, it had been one of us to the left of this German and, of course, he was lumbered with the bill. Once we where savvy to the custom, we made bloody sure that he paid for the beer for the rest of the evening. I don't remember leaving a more sorry looking geezer at a bar in all my life. Served the bugger right for trying to con the biggest cons in the world............................
