Grey's Anatomy Drinking Game + Cocktail

Share:

It's a beautiful day to save lives — and to finish your drink before someone dies.

The Rules

  • Sip — a surgeon delivers an inspirational speech in the middle of a medical emergency
  • Sip — Meredith Grey narrates the episode's theme with a medical metaphor
  • Sip — Cristina Yang tells Meredith to 'Stop being a baby' during a crisis
  • Sip — a patient case directly mirrors the emotional storyline of the main characters
  • Sip — McDreamy stands in the rain or in a hallway looking conflicted about Meredith
  • Drink Twice — a character codes on the operating table and everyone starts compressions
  • Drink Twice — Bailey delivers a dressing-down to an intern with precise surgical language
  • Drink Twice — the elevator at Grey Sloan becomes the scene of an emotional confession
  • Shot — a major character dies unexpectedly with no foreshadowing in the same episode
  • Shot — 'It's a beautiful day to save lives' is said moments before something goes wrong
  • Chug — the ferry boat disaster episode reaches its climactic recovery scene in the water
