Getty Biden speech drinking game ideas.
Tonight is President Joe Biden’s speech to a joint session of Congress. Although it might not be as dramatic as former President Trump’s speeches, especially given the limited attendance due to the pandemic, there will likely still be quite a few opportunities for drinking games. Read on for ideas.
Biden’s speech will begin tonight, April 28, 2021, at 9 p.m. Eastern. It could last for up to 90 minutes, but will likely end closer to around the 60-minute mark.
