Happy Halloween Knight Nation! What better way to spend the spookiest day of the year than staying at home, passing out candy to your drunk roommates, and watching the Knights vs. Bearcats game. This Halloween, UCF will play the University of Cincinnati Bearcats at the Nippert Stadium in Cincinnati, Ohio. To make sure your Halloween is a witching good time, we have come up with a game of our own to make this Knightmare of a season a little less scary.
Disclaimer: Her Campus does not condone underage drinking! Please enjoy this game responsibly. Remember, if you are under 21 you can always substitute with a mocktail.
UCF vs. Cincinnati Halloween Drinking Game

Is this a trick or a treat?
Knightro is shown doing something generally awesome – 1 drink
Our team may not be the best this year, but at least we have a ballin’ university mascot. You go Knightro, and happy 21st!

The ghosts won’t be the only things saying “BOO!”
Whenever a UC fan throws shade at the new UCF interim head coach, Danny Barrett – 1 drink
The new interim Men’s Football Coach, Danny Barrett, was actually one of the most successful quarterbacks in University of Cincinnati history. Talk about an awkward first game as head coach for him.

Those linemen have been looking like straight up zombies this season.

While it feels like our Knights have been cursed with a losing streak this season, it is important that we still support all of the hardworking individuals who will be missing out on Halloween festivities this year. Best of luck to not only the football players, but also to the cheerleaders, dancers, band members, coaches, and everyone else involved in making our game day experience possible. We are lucky to have such a great football program and a fantastic fan base to back it up. Happy Halloween and Charge On!Â
