How would you like to
buy us a beer
for all of our hard work
on this site?

Drinking Games:
Beer Pong
What you will need to play:  
At least 2 players, but single elimination tournaments with teams of
2 are better.
Beer (or make sure you take everyone's keys for this version)
rum-and-coke pong!
Ping-pong table, long table, 2 short tables set far apart (or make
your own, described later).        

Game basics:
Set-up:
Plastic beer cups should be filled about 1/4 to 1/3 with
beer.  Cups should be arranged in a 4-3-2-1 pyramid shape, more
cups if you are brave.
The back row of the pyramid, with the most cups, should be at the
edge of the table and the single cup in the pyramid pointing toward
your opponents.

You should also re-arrange the cups as cups are drank.
Re-arrange back into pyramid if possible, and if not, diamond or (if
2 cups remain) vertical line to make it more difficult to hit.

Just like ping-pong, this can be played either in singles or doubles.
Each player fills a cup with beer and places it one paddle-width
from the end of the table, in the center (or a paddle-width from the
side for doubles). Hitting your opponent's cup earns you a point
and requires the opponent to sip (5 sips to a cup). If you get the
ball in your opponent's cup, you are awarded 5 points and the
opponent must drink whatever remains in the cup (excluding the
ball, for those of you drunk-reading this).

No player may touch the ball prior to its hitting the table or a cup;
if the ball hits a cup before hitting the table, it remains in play even
after a single bounce on the table. A player may attempt to save a
point after the ball hits a cup by returning it (provided of course the
ball has bounced no more than one time).  Multiple hits count only
as a single point (exception: a ball hitting a cup and then bouncing
inside the cup, or inside the partner's cup, counts as a 5-point
inside-the-cup "poofter").

A number of house rules are common--knocking a cup over is
grounds for a penalty chug (but no points); ball may not be
"auto-returned" via a fortuitous bounce off the cup, etc. The
trajectories of the volleys should be high arcs, to keep things
civilized (and to maximize your chance at a poofter).

If you take out all of your opponents cups, you are the winner, and
your opponents must drink the beer left in all of your remaining
cups.
