Playing beer pong

Beer pong is one of the most popular games among American students of an evening. The infatuation for this game is such that there is a constant stream of tournaments being organised. A delicious mix of agility and luck, it is played with red cups that frequently form part of the backdrop on American films. Intrigued by the idea? Are you keen to share some treasured moments with your nearest and dearest? Learn the basics of beer pong and add an original zest to your evenings!

What is beer pong?

Beer pong is a popular and sociable American drinking game. Players have fun throwing a ping-pong ball down to the far end of the table, the idea being to get it to land in a cup that is positioned there. A game of beer pong generally involves two teams, each of them positioned at either end of the table. If the ball lands in the cup, the beer in it must be consumed by a member of the team situated next to the cup. The winning team is the one that manages to remove all the cups from the rival team. An original, recreational game, every session is different. Beer pong can be played in a garden, a garage or even in certain bars. The games can be linked together and the players enjoy an entertaining evening in good company.

How do you play beer pong?

nombre de joueur et matériel pour beer pongBeer pong is a highly adaptable and flexible game. There are no official rules so everyone is free to play it the way they like it. Generally, six to ten plastic cups are placed in a triangle at either end of the table. The number of players per team can vary, from two to three or more. The teams are situated at the two ends of the table. Initially, the teams call heads or tails to determine who starts. The players from the winning team each throw a ball in turn. Once all the players have thrown, the opposing team has a go.

Possible scenarios in beer pong

The moment a player scores, the opposing team has to immediately drink the contents of the cup and remove it from play. If the player throws too far without managing to touch a cup or the table, the latter has to drink from one of their own cups. When the ball bounces on the table before landing in a cup, the opposing team then drinks from this cup and the one placed next to it. In the event that the ball touches an element from the game, but doesn’t land in any cup, nothing happens and it’s down to the next player to throw. There are numerous other scenarios and new inventions are permitted. For example, as soon as the ball bounces on the table, the players can defend themselves by trying to catch it or deflect it. The most important thing is to have fun with it!

The game finishes when a player lands a throw in the opposing team’s last cup. The losing team must then drink the remaining cup from the opposing team. Beer pong is a sociable game. Have fun, think up some new rules and surprise your mates with your precision!
