One beer per person. One person from each team starts by chugging his beer, setting the empty cup down on the edge of the table, and trying to flip it over so the open end lands down. Then the next person goes. Repeat until one team finishes. Losing team drinks a pitcher. This game sounds easy enough, but wait until you start seeing three cups. Beer Pong: It's like ping pong. With beer. Only different. more like a cross between basketball and bowling. Look for it in the 2008 Olympics. Quarters: Our favorite version: Sit in a circle and start two empty mugs in front o.f people sitting across from each other. You have to bounce a quarter in the mug when it's your turn, and then pass it to the left. Make it on your first try and you can pass it to your left or right. If you end up with both mugs in front of you, you have to chug a beer.

  • Beer Pong Directions
    Beer Pong Beer Pong is a drinking game, usually played in pairs, with teams standing at opposing ends of a table. Cups are formed in a pyramid at either end of the table. The player attempts to toss or bounce a pong ball into the cups. The cups are filled 1/3 with liquid. The player makes a shot into a cup of the opposing team, a player from the opposing team drinks the contents of the cup and removes it from the table. The game continues in this way, with both players from one team taking a shot, followed by both players from the other team. The team that is able to clear all of the opposing team's cups first is the winner, with the losing team splitting the contents of the winning team's remaining cups. Be safe, Be Healthy, Be Clean. Implement the " Health Cup " Rule. Each player identifies and marks their "Health Cup" usually by writing their name on the cup. This cup is to be used only by that individual as a container for which the liquid from the playing cups is poured into. The "Health Cup" is not part of the 20 playing cups. Rules & Regulations 1.) Each team consist of 1 or 2 players. 2.) One Official Party Pong Beer Pong Table. 3.) Two Official Party Pong balls per table. 4.) Cups will be set up in a 4, 3, 2, 1 formation. 5.) Distribute 24 oz. of liquid evenly among all 10 cups per side. 6.) Rock, Paper, Scissors will decide the team that shoots first ( Best of 3 ).

This E-Book was created by some of our best researchers who traveled the web from east to west and from north to south to find and compile some of the best drinking games that will keep your party alive and going. Enjoy!! Party Like Sophia 1 of 75 Game #1: Beer Pong What you need: Ping pong table Pack of ping-pong balls Pack of 16oz plastic cups How to play: You can play beer pong in teams of one or two players. You will need to set up two formations of 10 cups on either end of the ping-pong table. The cups should form a triangle, similar to how balls are racked at the beginning of a game of pool. Fill each cup with roughly three to four ounces of beer. Each team stands on either side of the table. The goal is to toss a ping- pong ball into one of the cups on the opposing team’s side. You can toss the ball directly into a cup, and the opposing team is not permitted to try to swat the ball away. Or, for an easier shot, you can bounce the ball when you toss it, but in this scenario, the opposing team is permitted to try to swat the ball away. When a ball lands in a cup, a member of the opposing team has to drink it.

  • Tailgating Policies
    Tailgating Policies Lawrence Technological University permits tailgating in an authorized location prior to home football games. Tailgating is defined as parking a motorized vehicle and consuming food and beverages, which may include alcoholic beverages, outside the sports event area. Parking Lots A and G are designated lots for tailgating. The safety of our students and visitors is of the utmost importance to the University; therefore the following guidelines are established for tailgating. 1. Tailgating must occur only in Parking Lots A and G, which will be clearly marked by signs. 2. Tailgating cannot start before four hours prior to the beginning of any home football game and must end no later than the scheduled kick-off. 3. Alcoholic beverages are limited to single-serving, non-glass containers. No common sources (e.g., kegs, beer balls or other large quantity containers) are permitted. 4. Serving alcohol to or consumption of alcohol by minors (those under 21 years of age) is a violation of state law and Lawrence Technological University’s Code of Conduct. Michigan law states that underage drinking is illegal everywhere—on public or private property, indoors or out—including tailgating. 5. Individuals consuming alcohol may be asked to provide legal identification and proof of age to a campus safety officer, student affair staff or local law enforcement officer. 6. Carrying an open container of alcohol on public streets or sidewalks is illegal, regardless of age. When guests leave the designated tailgate area, they must leave alcoholic beverages in the designated tailgate area. 7. Playing of games that involve consumption of alcohol or use of alcohol-related paraphernalia are prohibited, including but not limited to beer pong, flip cup, shot gunning, etc.
