2. The umpire tapes one can in the grip of each of the participants' hands with duct tape.
3. The participants are free to do whatever they like, except pour out the beer. The only acceptable way to dispose of the beer is to drink it.
4. When a participant has an empty can, the umpire verifies it and removes the tape.
5. The person first to get both hands free is the "winner".

Optimum strategy is to consume the beer quickly. It warms rapidly due to body heat, and normal activities such as going to the bathroom are significantly more difficult with cans of beer taped to your hands.
The optimum strategy is sort of implied in the rules, as well ;-)

I used to be able to down a 12 oz can of beer in a bit under 5 seconds. However, I fear that this does not imply a potential sub-minute performance with 64 ounces, though.

Maybe there should be a belt system added to the game. Black belt for under 2 minutes, brown for under 4 minutes and so on...

Cheers,
