House of Cards is Back, and We Know Exactly How to Celebrate

Here at Harvard, we are in mid thrust of midterm season, and students have already began to barricade themselves within the unforgiving fold of Lamont Cafe — pillows, textbooks et al. But that’s not the most important news buzzing around campus. For a campus literally filled with aspiring politicians and descendants of major political power players, the true education stands to come from a television show that returned to the most popular streaming service last week: House of Cards.

That’s right. Frank Underwood is back, and Flyby knows the best way to celebrate his return. Take notes, late night partiers: Flyby is about to teach you the best drinking game you’ve ever played in your life.

Take a shot every time:
Claire thinks she’s one step ahead of Frank Underwood
Someone gets betrayed
Someone says “God bless America”
Every time Claire flips her hair (you’ll be dead by morning)

Finish your drink when:
Every time that Frank Underwood breaks the fourth wall
Every time Doug is disturbingly loyal to Frank
Every time Frank Underwood burns a bridge with someone who was on his side
Every time Frank raps his ring against a table

Seeing as you probably have three midterms and two papers this week, chances are these drinking games will have to be on the backburner for the time being. However, with Spring Break on the horizon, we here at Flyby can think of no better way to celebrate all that extra free time than binge watching House of Cards and simultaneously getting tipsy.
