What’d we miss?
Looking for a Hamilton drinking game while you’re watching it on Disney Plus? When you see it, keep your ears open for all the musical-theater references author and star Lin-Manuel Miranda sneaks into his sick rhymes. For starters, you can raise a glass to the five references we found. Of course, it’s posssssssible some of these are accidental, but we know that Lin’s a musical theater nerd, so let’s be real. He knew what he was doing.
