About The Power Hour
The Power Hour is an immature college drinking game where a person attempts to drink a shot OF BEER every minute for an hour.
“COMEDIAN’S Power Hour” is a comedy show originating in Albuquerque, NM and now with offshoots in (NYC, Denver, Texas, Florida, etc.). It involves 2 chortle-mongers going head to head making this classic drinking game a comedy competition.
Every show is different but a typical CPH looks like this:
-BOTH COMICS START BY CHEERSING THE AUDIENCE AND TAKING A DOUBLE SHOT OF BEER
-A comic does 2 minutes of stand-up
-BOTH COMICS TAKE A DOUBLE SHOT OF BEER
-The other comic does 2 minutes of stand-up
-ANOTHER DOUBLE SHOT OF BEER-
-Then typically a challenge (something like: 2 Minutes of Doing Each Other’s Stand-Up)
-DOUBLE SHOTS
-Another set of straight stand-up
-SHOTS
-Another Challenge (i.e. – give your competitor a Best Man speech, worst speech takes an shot OF LIQUOR)
-SHOTS
-stand-up
-SHOTS
-challenge (i.e. – the comics are coaches and audience is a losing football team, give the best halftime speech)
-SHOTS
-stand-up
You see how it goes…. Challenges change every show and usually end with something that’ll really embarrass a drunk person (i.e. – “Describe the plot to the saddest movie you’ve ever seen without crying”)
