Goon of Fortune, sometimes called Wheel of Goon, is an Australian drinking game involving cheap cask wine, colloquially known as goon, and it can be played between any number of people. Its name is a spoof of the television show Wheel of Fortune. A number of goonsacks are pegged around the outside of a rotary washing line, and the players sit underneath it at the edges and agree on how much wine each win involves. One player spins the hoist, and when the spin stops the winners nearest to a bag or bags must drink that amount. Players may not touch the clothesline, and the penalties for breaking the rules vary.
