AppId is over the quota
With the advent of beer drinking games, college frat houses in the 1950s turned the humble ping pong game into competitive beer pong. Using paddles and a ball to hit into predefined beer cups set for target. The objective of the game, simply hit the ball into the cup of the opposition and make them drink the contents, commonly beer.
As with many games, evolution took over, with the origins some where in the 1980's we see the now derived Beer Pong, or Beirut. The paddles have been replaced with a more practical variant to now allow throwing of the beer pong ball 40mm ping pong ball. The game has grown in stature and has made it to the World stage. Held annually in Las Vegas the World Series of Beer Pong draws fierce competition for teams from the USA and abroad, as teams do battle for the ultimate glory in this fast growing sport. The prize, a sizable pay check awarded to the winners.
Beer Pong is a highly competitive and a very fun game, full of thrills and spills as teams compete to out perform with accurate throws to put the opponent's cups out of game play. The Beer drinking version would require the opposition to drink the contents of the cups if a ball lands in them.
The survival Guide.
Rule number 1:
Know the Rules. House rules can vary between party to party and state to state. Be sure to have an established rule base in order to minimise any necessary frustrations or fights. Most tournaments have well established rules so learn them and the variants.
Rule number 2:
Know your limits; be sure not to go over board with the drinking, as you need to keep a steady head whilst competing. You will not only save face during the game but in the morning you will feel a lot better if you have kept a cool head and not become over committed to drinking rather then winning. Drink responsibly.
Rule number 3:
Practice makes perfect as they say. The game situation can be a lot different to practice so really attempt to practice in a game like situation. Get your self a good distraction team and really apply practice under pressure. You don't need to drink to be under game situation, practice throwing and defence. You will soon develop trick shot awesomeness.
Rule number 4:
Do not underestimate the power of distractions. Keep focused or better still come up with killer distractions of your own that will truly establish yourself as the legend in distraction.
Rule number 5:
If you are playing in tournaments be sure to practice on official tournament dimension tables, that's 8ft long x 2ft wide. No good practicing on the kitchen table, when you need to be practicing on the real deal. You need to be getting the bounce right also.
If the budget is tight, get your self a cheap tournament dimension table. You will be surprised how extremely affordable and portable the latest tables are. Take the aluminium variety as an example they are built for storage and easy transport and fold down into a 2x2foot briefcase size. The portable beer pong tables are awesome for tailgating too. Note you can go all out and fully customise your new table also.
Rule number 6:
Bounce shots count for 2 so use the bounce strategically and if you suck at the bounce shot don't even bother.
Rule number 7:
If you are serious about beer pong invest in the book dedicated to the game.
Rule number 8:
Know the risks of germs and stuff. After all you could be drinking from someone else's cup or the ball is contaminated with nasties. Consider using water as the filler for the game play cups, and just poor beer into your own cup for drinking. It is a safe and effective way to overcome any health concerns and keeping with the spirit of the beer pong challenge - beer drinking.
Rule number 9:
Rules were made to be broken.
