What snacks/food/beverages do you have at your gaming table?

Post by Tadhg »

Heh, after having another nephew join our last session, I now have to do more preparation for our games - buy more food!
Damn teenagers, they cleaned out my pantry!

We usually game on Saturdays from about 2 pm until 8 pm, so cheetos/pretzels/fruit/yogurt and more gets wolfed down with loads of gatorade/juice/pop. Then we usually order a pizza which gets annilhilated and finish the game.

Then we'll either deathmatch on computer games or throw in some fantasy/sci-fi movies and then the friggin' snacking begins anew!
Fun times and good food in the name of gaming!

Sounds great, but ahh, you DID have the ladies to go with the poles, right?

Otherwise, if it was just you and the guys with stripper poles, no need to tell us anything more!

This sounds way too familiar, except we usually start around noon. The same people usually bring the same thing every time so we're pretty much guaranteed Pringles, Oreos, Pocky, beef jerky, and fruit-and-veggie trays in addition to everything else snack-wise that the others bring. In warmer weather we grill out for dinner, otherwise we order in. Can't wait for the next game!

Pizza and wings used to be the standard, but anymore not much to snack on, just some sodas.

In our game last night with 8 people, we had for snacks, chocolate chip cookies, and various beverages, which is a light snack night to be sure.

The snacking habits of our various players vary greatly from week to week.

Nice. And they'd be chilled of course, the way Indy and Short Round like them!

We don't have much in the way of snacks in my game. But the host of our game always have plenty of pop for us all to drink.

Pizza is a staple, but we've got a lot of people who like to cook too, so we have some good food on occasion. In addition, I've got a baker in the group from time to time, and she'll being in the stuff that didn't sell for that day.

We generally play 6-10pm, so it's dinner hour.

Every time it's the same two pizzas:

#1 = bacon, pineapple and extra cheese

#2 = pepperoni, ground beef and hot peppers

Mmmmm, health food
Plus the cokes and ginger ale, an assortment of chips and chocolate bars (I like Junior Mints myself) and coffee/tea.

We play at work, so our menu choices are limited by a. what's in the vending machines and b. what we can get delivered.

We game 8 pm - midnight, and as such, we don't really tend to snack on much, though there is often a lot available, depending on who knows to bring something... so, for example, if everyone brings food, there's a lot. The stuff tends to be pretzels and chips, but other stuff comes in and goes out. Some food items are banned like sour cream and cheddar crack, and other times, like this last session, there's a whole lot of sweets. So, nothing specific, but whatever is floating the fancies at the moment, I guess.

EXTREME SNACKING!!!

I don't think this really qualifies as snack, but I'll post about it here just the same.

Every once in a great while we have a night where we play an RPG where if we fumble or crit, we take a shot of various kinds of liquor or chug a beer. This makes for some funny sessions, but usually the GM/DM/CK ends up out of the game too soon.

Fun times.

That's it!!! That's what my group does. And as the boys grow, so does our grocery bill. And the suger/caffeine blast, I may have to muzzle a couple of my guys, hehe.

I always need a glass of wine or beer after the game to keep my sanity!
