Play the AUXTV Grammys 2016 Drinking Game

by Tyler Munro

The thing about the Grammys is that they’re boring as hell. At best, you can count on Kanye West to spice things up by storming the stage, but with Yeezus locked down tweeting about Bill Cosby and allegedly working on his new album, this year’s ceremonious industry circle jerk is promising to be perhaps the dullest in years.

And that’s where booze comes in. Listen — we’re all about drinking safely, responsibly and as far away from your ex’s phone number as possible. So while we’re about to present you with a little drinking game, consider the following: if at any point you find yourself enjoying the Grammys, please slow down.

Now, without further adieu:
