Somewhat old, but worth a read:
Jeff Rient's at Jeffs Gameblog started a mini-wave of creativity with his carousing rules in Party like it's 999. Basically you spend a bit of cash, take a little risk, and get more experience points that normal by drinking the night away. This seems to be what Conan often did and fits a Sword And Sorcery game nicely and also fits Gygax original idea of having to spend gold to get the experience points for it (if I remember correctly).
A Wizards Kiss adds love to carousing with Rules for Lusty Wenches.
Elfmaids & Octopi has a table for Carousing on Xor. It seems to be fun results with minimal mechanical effects.
Roles, Rules, and Rolls has Experience, Carousing. Inc in which he breaks carousing down into Philanthropy, Carousing, Research, Gourmandising with tables for each.
Goblinpunch has Downtime Activities + Carousing Table in which he breaks the idea down into Philanthropy, Relaxing, Prayer, Boasting, Skill Training, Skill Mastering, Spell Study, Spell Invention, Working, Carousing which pretty much covers nearly everything one might want to do between adventures.
Autarch has his own version of the idea in pdf form for ACKs.
Daayan Songs Translated has Carousing for Wizards.
Zack also had additional carousing results.
