The 65th annual Grammy Awards are this Sunday and will be broadcast live on CBS and Paramount+ from the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. Now it may be too late for you to secure a nomination or even a seat in the arena, but that doesn’t mean you can’t partake in the festivities. Even if you are not a big music or awards show fan, just imagine this as a dress rehearsal for the Super Bowl next weekend. Grab some of your favorite snacks and spirits turn up the volume on the tv and play along with the 2023 Grammy Awards Drinking Game.
Remember to play and drink responsibly as we at the SoBros Network do not promote binge or underage drinking.
TAKE A DRINK…
ANYTIME THERE IS AN AERIAL SHOT OF CRYPTO.COM ARENA
This is bound to happen a few times through out the show
EVERY TIME YOU SAY YOU ARE TOO OLD FOR THIS SHOW
If you do not know who Wet Leg, Måneskin or Steve Lacy are, you may be in for a long night
EVERY TIME TREVOR NOAH IMPERSONATES DONALD TRUMP
This will be the first high profile event Trevor has been apart of since leaving the Daily Show, so there’s a good chance he gets one in.
EVERY TIME SOMEONE SAYS IT’S “MUSIC’S BIGGEST NIGHT”
It is, so it’s bound to happen once or twelve times
ANYTIME WILL SMITH OR THE “SLAP” IS MENTIONED
Can this just be put to bed already?
IF SOMEONE IS WEARING SUNGLASSES INSIDE
Someone is bound to be douchy enough to do this
EVERY TIME A WINNER THANKS GOD
Next to parents or spouses, the ‘big guy in the sky’ is almost always thanked. You may want to use a sick day at work tomorrow because this one could make things rough.
WHEN A WINNER SAYS THEY’RE “SHOCKED” THEY WON
Chances are pretty good we get one
IF SOMEONE MENTIONS TYRE NICHOLS
If it does happen, pour some out for the young man that should be still be here watching the show along with all us
WHEN YOU DON’T KNOW WHO A PERFORMER IS
Maybe send someone to the store to make sure you have enough for the game
EVERY TIME AN ARTIST YOU DON’T KNOW WINS AN AWARD
You definitely should send someone to the store
EVERY TIME AN ARTIST GETS PLAYED OFF DURING AN ACCEPTANCE SPEECH
It’s an award show, so you know it’s going to happen
ANYTIME TREVOR NOAH MAKES A JOKE ABOUT AN ARTIST
Again it’s an award show, it’s going to happen
IF YOU TEAR UP DURING THE IN MEMORIAM
Drink and pour one out
IF ABBA WINS AN AWARD
Take an extra drink if you didn’t know ABBA had new music. Drink everything if you don’t know who ABBA is.
IF KIM PETRAS IS REFERRED TO AS TRANS OR SAM SMITH IS REFERRED TO AS NONBINARY
The “Unholy” duo could be the first openly trans and nonbinary Grammy recipients if they win for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance
EVERY TIME TAYLOR SWIFT IS SHOWN DANCING IN THE CROWD
If she is there, this will happen and it will happen a lot.
