The best place to party at the Lake of the Ozarks is right here at Tuckers Shuckers. It's a great gathering spot for you and your friends. Featuring two bars and a menu full of delicious food, your entire group will be full, happy, and having fun when you host your party with us. We should be able to find you enough room to play any of the following games.
Picking teams
When it's time to break into teams for games, this is the perfect way to mix things up. If everyone at the party knows each other well, this makes the team-picking random, and if some of your guests are new to each other, it's good for breaking the ice. First, take a stack of old Christmas cards, tear off the front cover and rip it in half. (If you need teams larger than two, rip it into that number of pieces.) Give each guest a card piece. When people locate their missing pieces, the person possessing it is their partner for the next game.12 Shots of Christmas
Make a circle of shots with enough room in the center to spin a bottle. You will need twelve real shots, and at least 12 non-alcoholic shots that look like real ones. Depending on the size of your party, you may want to add more. Every person gets a chance to spin the bottle, and they must take the shot that it lands on. That's the simple version. If you would like to add a bit of a challenge, every time someone takes a drink they must say, "Mmmmm, water" (or whatever non-alcoholic drink that the shot resembles) trying to convince the group that it was non-alcoholic. If the group can tell that they are lying, that person must take another turn.
Jenga, with a twist
This will involve some preparation before the party, but can be used over and over again. Everyone loves a competitive round of Jenga, but the instructions that you write on each piece gives this that extra special touch. Here are a few fun ideas for what to write on the different pieces to get you started:- Make a toast
- Arm wrestle person on your right
- Buy a round
- Take a group selfie
- Make 2 people drink
- Chug your drink
- Take another turn
Human Christmas Tree
This involves a little creativity and lots of funny photos to post later. The best games always embarrass someone! This game works best with teams of three or more. One lucky individual in each group volunteers to be the "tree", and the rest of the team races to decorate their "tree" better than the other teams "trees." Be sure to have plenty of aluminum foil, garland, beads, ornaments, etc... for everyone to use. Give an extra special prize for the most incredible tree topper fashioned. 2 Truths and a Lie
This game lets you learn a lot about your friends. Possibly things you'd rather not know, but still loads of fun. Everyone takes a turn giving three statments about themselves, two that are the truth and one that is an outright lie. If your team picks the lie, liar drinks. If not, the team earns the drink. If you don't want to play for drinks, just let someone keep score and announce the winning team after. To put a holiday spin on this one, give out categories to make statements about, like the earliest Christmas they remember, the best or worst gifts they ever received, or the craziest thing they ever did at a New Year's Eve party.
Christmas is only a few days away, but there is no rule saying that you can't celebrate at a later date. Everyone gets busy during the holidays, so plan your get-together for the week between Christmas and New Year's Eve, or even throw a "Welcome to 2016" party in January. Our Lake of the Ozarks oyster restaurant is the best place in town to throw a party. With a little advance notice, we'd be thrilled to reserve the entire upstairs area for you and your friends. That will give you plenty of room for all types of games and no interruptions from strangers.
If you truly love playing games, make sure to mark your calendars for our monthly beer pong tournaments. Not only are they an absolute blast to compete in, but we give away $700 in cash prizes! Live DJs, shot specials, drink specials, and it's free to enter! Upcoming dates are:
