There was a time, far back in the realms of ancient history, when men sat at tables in the pub, pint carefully at their side, pitting their wits against each other in time-honored fashion, concentrating over the chessboard. Sadly this practice has become all but extinct. Until now. This beautiful chess set, crafted from the finest quality glass, has for its pieces 32 shot glasses, each with the likeness of the standard piece embossed on it for identification. As a display piece, this set is unbeatable, but its possibilities for a drunken game are endless. Fill each glass with your favorite shot, then challenge your friends to a game. Each time your pieces are taken, you down the shot; likewise your opponent. As the game progresses, it's guaranteed to become interesting as your muddled mind tries some strategies and your wits become addled. This is an ideal gift for anyone who enjoys the fascinating game of chess, even more so if they also like a drink. Remember to drink carefully, as the consumption of excessive amounts of alcohol is likely to seriously impair your chances of winning!
