Power Hour, with its variants Centurion (aka Century Club) and 21 for 21, is a potentially lethal drinking event where player(s) drink a specified number of alcohol shots within one hour. Variants include one shot of beer every minute for an hour or 21 shots within one hour. In the USA, a power hour event is often associated with a person's 21st birthday when they reach the legal drinking age.
The game's rules appear simple; however, players often have difficulty completing the specified number of drinks as the rate of consumption necessary to win many forms of this game can, depending on the player's weight and other factors, raise their blood alcohol content to high levels. The rate of alcohol consumption makes the players intoxicated within a short period of time.
Each shot of beer contains 1.5 fluid ounces (US) (44mL), for a total of 90 fl. oz. (5.63 US pints, 2.66 litres, or 4.68 Imperial units pints) of consumption during the power hour. For purposes of blood alcohol content, this amount of beer is equivalent to 7.5 drinks. In the Centurion variant, beer shots are drunk one per minute for 100 minutes, with a shot size of 35mL, totaling 7.4 US pints (3.5 litres or 6.16 Imperial pints), or 9.9 drinks. There are many difficult variants of Centurion, amongst them are Gladiator and Spartan. Gladiator is 200 shots of beer in 200 minutes, and Spartan is 300 shots in 300 minutes.[citation needed]
Dressed in uniforms, skulls on their caps
They´re on the prowl, now don´t you collapse
Remember the years 39-45, the lowest race tried to stay
alive
(I lead u into victory, we´ll be the only race soon, can
´t u see
I´m the leader, I gotta be, coz I lead insanity)
Age - eye - tea - ell - ea - are
With the big A at the wheel, they sat on the gas
Marching through cities, a massacre mass
People backing him up all along, digging
those graves, there´s nothing wrong
Trained to torment, they were the champs
Working overtime in the ss camps
Hit the shower - power hour
Nowhere to run, why bother regret
