Typical form for a keg stand
Keg stand (sometimes known as 'getting vertical' ) is often considered a drinking ritual using a beer keg, but it is not always competitive. Sometimes, keg stands are merely a form of enjoyment for participants. It is usually done in a college setting. An American college student interviewed by Time Magazine defined a keg stand as, "two friends suspend you by your ankles over a keg, and you guzzle as much cheap beer as quickly as you can."[1] Onlookers generally count out loud the number of seconds the person drinks for before having to stop. If in a competitive setting, an agreement is made beforehand about the pressure of beer coming out. The general pressure setting is for it to be like a "firehose", or a high-pressure stream. A low pressure pour from the keg can yield highly distorted results.
In some areas, such as Morgantown, West Virginia, the practice is banned at events like football tailgating.[2]
Procedure
- 1. The person puts both hands on the keg.
- 2. Friends pick up the person by the legs and tip them upward, as if they were doing a handstand on the keg.
- 3. The person wraps their lips around the tap, opens it, and drinks.
- 4. The surrounding audience and awaiting participants chant the number of seconds for which the person is drinking. Quite often the audience will chant a song.(Songs vary)
- 5. The person shakes their leg to signal to friends when they can't drink anymore and need to get down.
- 6. Repeat.
