If you’ve already muttered “Pitter patter, let’s get at ’er” this week, you’re in the right place. The Letterkenny Drinking Game was practically destined to exist—because Letterkenny, the sharp-tongued Canadian comedy gem, is made for it. Rapid-fire banter? Check. Repetitive catchphrases? Check. Characters that feel like your rowdy northern cousins? Big ol’ double check.
Whether you’re a seasoned skids supporter or a casual viewer just trying to make it through the episode without a spit-take, we’ve built the ultimate drinking game guide.

What Is the Letterkenny Drinking Game?
The Letterkenny drinking game is a glorious, borderline-dangerous way to enjoy the show. Born from Reddit chaos, the game evolved from casual fun to a full-blown ritual—with rules ranging from light sips to liver-endangering madness. Fans even break it down by difficulty and episode.
At its core, it’s a celebration of everything that makes Letterkenny great: sharp wit, recurring gags, lovable degenerates—and a reason to crack open another cold one.
How to Play the Letterkenny Drinking Game
Basic Rules for First-Timers
Let’s start light—rules designed for casual drinkers or folks who don’t want to be scraping themselves off the floor by episode three.
Take one sip when:
- Someone says “Pitter patter”
- Wayne fights someone
- Daryl laughs at his own joke
- Squirrelly Dan says “And that’s what I appreciates about ya”
- The word “allegedly” is used
- The Skids dance dramatically to electronic music
- Gail makes you uncomfortable (which is always)
These core rules are the bread and butter (or should we say steak and eggs) of the game.
Game Modes: Easy, Moderate, Blackout
Easy Mode: Stick to the basics. Sips only. No doubles, no chugging. You’ll be tipsy, not trashed.
Moderate Mode: Layer in combos. If “Pitter patter” and “Allegedly” are said in the same scene, take two sips. If there’s a fight and a chirp right after? That’s a full drink.
Blackout Mode: For people who have no plans tomorrow and possibly no regard for liver function. Chug when Wayne takes his shirt off. Shotgun a beer when McMurray says “intercourse” in a sentence that has no business including that word. Good luck.
Best Letterkenny Episodes for Drinking
Top 5 Episodes That Maximize Triggers
- Season 1, Episode 1 – “Ain’t No Reason to Get Excited”
It’s where it all begins. The purest form of Letterkenny, complete with intro character dumps and repeated catchphrases. - Season 2, Episode 3 – “Relationships”
Gail goes off the rails. Wayne fights. Dan philosophizes. Your cup won’t be empty for long. - Season 3, Episode 6 – “Bradley is a Killer”
Everyone’s got a chirp and a drink. Plus, fight club rules. Literally. - Season 6, Episode 1 – “What Could Be So Urgent?”
From the cold open to the bar scene, it’s full of quotable chaos. - Season 8, Episode 4 – “Ferda”
Just say “Ferda” every time they say it. You’ll be sideways by the end credits.
Episodes to Avoid (Too Slow or Emotional)
Not all Letterkenny episodes are created equal in terms of drink density. Avoid the holiday specials or anything with too much emotional weight. If Wayne’s getting introspective or there’s a dog storyline, maybe swap the beer for a Gatorade.
Fan-Made Rules and Reddit Favorites
Viral Custom Rules

Ultimate Letterkenny Catchphrase Dictionary
You don’t just watch Letterkenny. You absorb it through osmosis until your everyday vocabulary is 60% slang and 40% apologies for how much slang you’re using. Give that chaos some structure with a catchphrase dictionary that doubles as a drinking rulebook.
Here’s a sample:
- Pitter Patter – Everybody drinks. No exceptions.
- To Be Fair – Group chant in British accent, loser drinks.
- 10-ply – Finish your drink for being soft.
- How’re ya now? – Reply “Good’n you?” or take a drink.
- Ferda – Raise your drink, cheers, and sip.
- Donny Brook – If a fight breaks out, it’s a shot for all.
You can expand this with every rewatch. By then, your group will have developed a new dialect—and possibly a problem.
