Ambidextrous People:

Most people ask this questions because they are smart asses but here are the official rules if we come across anyone ambidextrous.

  1. As we are prejudiced against ambidextrous people, an ambidextrous person must be watched for one week before signup to determine the dominant drinking hand. Upon signup they must use their other hand for the rest of their life.

Other rules:

  1. At the call of "Sociable", all Buffalos present must take a decent swig of their drink.
  2. In regards to straws: the cup must be held with your non-dominant hand.  It does not matter what hand (if any) the straw is held with.

Backwards (Bat) Hour:

  1. At the call of Bat Hour, you must drink from your dominant hand until the end of Bat Hour.
  2. Bat Hour cannot be 60 minutes in length.
  3. Bat Hour must be called in conjunction with a call of "Sociable" to insure you have everyone's attention.

Drink Birkly

  1. At the call of drink Birkly, the person who holds the position of Birkly must drink.

Initiation

Whenever starting to drink with a group of people, a Buffalo should try to initiate any non-Buffalos. The initiation is a simple handshake given from a member in good standing. The new member should then visit this site to register.
