Share:

He's still not thinking — and you'll drink every time he proves it.

The Rules

  • Sip — Maverick ignores an order from a superior officer and does the maneuver anyway
  • Sip — Rooster plays 'Great Balls of Fire' on a piano — the bar goes silent then erupts
  • Sip — Hangman makes a callous remark about Rooster's survival chances or skill ceiling
  • Sip — Admiral Cyclone or another superior officer threatens to ground or remove Maverick
  • Sip — Maverick rides his motorcycle at dawn toward the airbase — a callback shot
  • Drink Twice — Maverick flies the training mission under the required time and actually pulls it off
  • Drink Twice — Penny Benjamin appears behind the bar of The Hard Deck and pours something
  • Drink Twice — Maverick and Rooster argue about his father Goose's death and Nick's role in it
  • Shot — Maverick steals the fifth-generation enemy jet from the airfield to rescue Rooster
  • Shot — Rooster appears in his F-18 and saves Maverick from the missile lock — the table turned
  • Chug — Maverick and Rooster land on the carrier, Maverick is cleared — Maverick says nothing, just nods
