III. Mean Girls Themed Variations
Ready to make your Mean Girls drinking game even more legendary? These themed variations are where things get seriously grool. Channel your inner quote master, become your favorite character, and relive the movie’s most iconic moments with a hilarious twist.
Quote Master
- How to Play: Start a famous Mean Girls quote (ex: “On Wednesdays, we wear…”). The next player must continue the quote correctly. If they mess up or can’t continue, they take a drink. The last player standing gets to assign drinks throughout the rest of the game.
- Variation: Challenge everyone to do their best impression of the character while delivering the quote!
Character Challenge
- How to Play: Each player randomly draws a character’s name at the start. Throughout the movie, any time their character does something embarrassing, cringe-worthy, or gets targeted, the player drinks.
- Advanced Option: Add positive actions to the mix! For example, if you’re Regina, drink when you get a compliment, and assign a drink when someone insults you.
Social Butterfly
- How to Play: This focuses on how the film portrays early social media. Every time a character uses a phone, mentions getting a text, comments on a post, or has online drama, the whole group takes a small sip together.
- Variation: Amp up the silliness by having everyone say the word “hashtag” before mentioning the social media event triggering a drink (“Hashtag, someone posted an unflattering photo…”)
Fashion Police: Everyone is on the lookout for fashion disasters or breaking “The Plastics” style rules. When spotted, the group votes on who deserves to take a sip.
It’s October 3rd!: If anyone mentions the date in the movie, the player closest to wearing pink gets to assign a drink. Anyone NOT wearing pink has to take one!
Word Vomit: Anyone who uses a Gretchen Wieners catchphrase like “Boo, you whore” or “That’s why her hair is so big, it’s full of secrets” has to down a shot.
IV. Mean Girls Trivia & Challenges
Get ready to channel your inner North Shore know-it-all! Here’s how to take your Mean Girls game night to the next level with trivia and challenges:
Mean Girls Trivia Time
- Warm-up Round: Start with easy questions like “What’s Karen Smith’s special talent?” or “What subject does Ms. Norbury teach?”
- Hardcore Fan Round: Get into the nitty-gritty details: “What’s the name of Regina’s little sister?” or “What song plays during the cafeteria food fight scene?”
- Bonus Points: Award extra drinks for anyone who can recite iconic quotes word-for-word.
Challenge Accepted: Mean Girls Edition
- Act-It-Out Charades:
- Write down iconic quotes, scenes, or character names from the movie on slips of paper.
- Players take turns acting these out without speaking.
- The first person/team to guess correctly wins a point. The person with the most points at the end gets a prize.
- Trivia Showdown:
- Create two sets of trivia questions: Easy (“What’s Regina’s last name?”) and Hard-core Fan (“What does Cady say instead of trick-or-treating in Africa?”).
- Split into teams or play individually. Correct answers earn points, losers take sips depending on difficulty.
- “You Can’t Sit With Us” Challenge:
- Everyone brings a silly or embarrassing personal story written on a piece of paper.
- One by one, stories are read anonymously. The group votes on which story is the most “fetch” (awesome) or most “grool” (cringe-worthy).
- The owner of the winning story gets to assign drinks.
Offer fun prizes for the trivia winner or challenge champion! Think mini bottles of alcohol, Mean Girls-themed stickers, or even a crown fit for Regina George herself.

VI. Safety First: Responsible Drinking Tips
We want this Mean Girls drinking game to be a night to remember (for all the right reasons!). Here’s a quick reminder to drink responsibly:
- Pace Yourself: Sips and shots are fun, but take it slow. Alternate your drinks with water or snacks.
- Eat Something: Don’t play on an empty stomach! Having food beforehand helps.
- Designated Driver: Choose someone to stay sober and get everyone home safely.
- Play Without Alcohol: This game can be just as fun with mocktails or even snack-based rules.
