Flapdragon

Flapdragon was a game, of sorts, that involved catching up raisins out of burning brandy and swallowing them down blazing. It was mainly a Christmas Eve diversion from the 16th to the 19th century.

I'd get the carpets burned...

Also, I can not hold my liquor.

The carnage that would follow would be catastrophic, so sadly, I doubt that I could ever play such a game.
