The official rules of Bedroom Golf:

[Again from IntlNet Joke-area. This time from: Mick Harding]

  1. Each player shall furnish his own equipment, normally one club and two balls.
  2. Play on a course must be approved by the owner of the hole.
  3. Unlike outdoor golf the object of the game is to get the club in the hole and keep the balls out of the hole.
  4. For most effective play the club should have a firm shaft, course owners are permitted to check stiffness before play begins.
  5. Course owners reserve the right to restrict club length to avoid damage to the hole.
  6. The object of the game is to take as many strokes as necessary until the course owner is satisfied the game is complete, failure to do so may result being denied permission to play the course again.
  7. It is considered bad form to beging playing the hole immediately upon arrival at the course. The experienced player will normally take time to admire the entire course with special attention to the well formed bunkers.

  12. Slow play is encouraged. However players should be prepared to proceed at a quicker pace at least temporarily at the course owners request.

Occasionally in life, it's handy to be able to get out of awkward social situations. In such events, it behooves you to know these...

  1. At dinner, guard your plate with fork and steak knife, so as to give the impression that you'll stab anyone, including the waiter, who reaches for it.
  2. Collect the salt shakers from all of the tables in the restaurant, and balance them in a tower on your table.
  3. Wipe your nose on your date's sleeve. Twice.

  10. Stand up every five minutes, circle your table with your arms outstretched, and make airplane sounds.

  21. Eat everything on your plate within
  22. seconds of it being placed in front of you.

  24. Recite graphic limericks to the people at the table next to you.
  25. Ask the people at the neighboring table for food from their plates.

  35. Undress your date verbally. Use a bullhorn.
  36. Auction your date off for silverware.
  37. Slide under the table. Take your plate with you.
  38. Order a baked potato for a side dish. When the waiter brings your food, hide the potato, wait a few minutes, and ask the waiter for the potato you "never got". When the waiter returns with another potato for you, have the first one back up on the plate. Repeat later in the meal.

  48. Take a thermos along, and hide it under the table. Order coffee, and fill the thermos one cup at a time, taking advantage of the free refills.
