Objective:
Two teams face off in the ultimate drinking game. Ten cups stacked like bowling pins are formed on each side of the table. Each time a cup is sunk the defending team must take it out and drink it. The first team to sink all of their opponent's cups wins.
What You Need:
- A table (standard fold out table or professional)
- Two ping pong balls (backups recommended)
- 22 red 16-oz Cups (10 on each side filled with beer, 2 on each side full of water)
- 2 or 4 players
Set Up:
Teams are formed at opposite ends of the table and 10 cups are placed in front of them in a triangular formation.
Cups are filled evenly with the drink of choice. Preferably filled about a fourth of the way up or half of the way up.
Cups are removed, drank and placed on the side of the table when made.
Water cups are optional but are placed in a convenient spot to clean the balls.

How To Play:
*these rules are the very basic basic foundation of standard beer pong play, for extended fun there are many variations
To choose who goes first you have three options. There is debate on which of these two is the original way so we will list both ways for you.
- Rock, Paper, Scissors is played between the two teams and the winner gets to start
- Flip a Coin
- Eye to Eye is played by having both teams shoot a ball at the same time. Each person at the end of the table maintains eye contact with the opposing player while making their shot. Usually a countdown is done so that throws are made at the same time. If both players miss then the next two players do eye to eye. If both players make it then they go again. This continues until one team makes it and the other does not.
- The winning team starts off getting to throw one ball per turn with the intention of making it into the opposing teams cup.
- The ball cannot touch the ground. However if the ball goes into your opponents cup in any way. Whether it is bounced off the table, a wall, an opponent, shot behind the back, fumbled, etc. That cup is removed from play and drank by the team that lost the cop.
- When a cup is made it is removed from play and the defending team must drink it.
- When a cup is missed play continues to the next turn.
- After cups start to disappear and you get down to 4 remaining cups. The cups will need to be re-racked into a diamond shape.
- After 2 cups are remaining they are then re-racked to be side by side.
- This continues until the the last cup is made and removed. The first team to lose all of their cups, loses and the offensive team wins.
