vodka snowclone

Last night James and I were playing the Extreme Engineering drinking game again, and there was an episode about an indoor ski park in Dubai. I swear to god, one guy announced that "Eskimos have 200 words for snow." That is when I decided/realized that if you are a linguist and playing a drinking game--and I don't care what it's based on or what the rules are--if someone says that Eskimos have n words for snow, you must drink an entire drink. In fact, I think that you need to drink an entire drink even if you are not currently playing a drinking game.
