Here's how to play Beer Pong:
- Arrange 10 cups in a pyramid shape at each end of a long table and fill them with beer.
- Divide into two teams, with each team standing at one end of the table.
- The first team takes turns throwing a ping pong ball at the other team's cups.
- If the ball lands in a cup, the defending team must drink the contents of that cup and remove it from the table.
- The game continues until one team successfully eliminates all of the other team's cups.
- The losing team must then drink the remaining cups of beer on the winning team's side of the table.
Additional rules may vary, depending on the location and personal preferences of the players. Some common variations include:
- Re-racking: When a team has fewer than six cups remaining, they may ask to rearrange the remaining cups into a smaller formation.
- Bouncing: Players may attempt to throw the ball so that it bounces off the table and into a cup, which counts as two cups if successful.
- Redemption: If the losing team manages to sink a ball into all of the winning team's remaining cups after the game has ended, they may force a tiebreaker round.
Remember to play responsibly and to monitor alcohol consumption. It's also important to ensure that all players are of legal drinking age and to avoid drinking and driving.
