BEER PONG! (And other drinking games)

[noxious.sunshine]

the Bf's friends/soldiers/neighbors/whatevery has a beer pong table. They're lugging it over later.

But. What's the point of being -good- at beer pong? You just play for hours on end and then you're still sober! .... Unless you're drinking on the side, that is.

I suck majorly at beer pong, and I'm quite proud of this. I've also only played for the first time within this last year. And I'm still struggling to see the fun in a bunch of post-college age people that're almost 30 playing it, but what the hell.

Waterfalls (the card game) is also fun and it's good for getting drunk quick.

Name some other ones. And stuff.

Oh my god, King's Cup will kill me. I get absolutely shmammered. The first time I played was with long island iced teas. God help me, somehow I didn't die that night.

At work events at my last job, Flip Cup was a huge hit. We'd get 30-50 people in two long lines on either side of a long table. The first people of each line will chug their drinks then try to flip their cup to land perfectly upside down on the table, then it goes down the line to the next person. Obviously, the first line to get to the end wins.

I'm no good at beer pong, either, but I can flip my cup upside down like a champ.

I have never attempted to play Flip Cup ....

I think I tried Quarters when I was younger. Just goofing off with my brother (he wouldn't let me actually drink of course).

I am also terrible at quarters. I'm terrible at trying to get things into the cups.

Yes, beer pong.. I shoot so way off-center I have to stand way over to the right of the table if I want the ball to get even remotely centered of the cups, but even then, there's like a 1 in 50 shot I'll make it.

We played for like 13 hours straight one time in Texas (no joke, we went through like 4 30 packs or more) and in the 5 games I played, I think I got total of 6 shots. XD

just gonna make my statement once about the naming of certain drinking games, and how what most people call "beer pong" should actually be referred to as "Beirut", and that real beer pong is played with paddles. source: i'm a lehigh university alumnus

obviously names are local things and i'll know what you're talking about when you say "beer pong" and not be an ass about it

anyway

i like games where you drink alcohol

edit: quarters is best, if you have a good table (or one that you're used to. one time i played on a plastic table and was used to playing on wood and i got destroyed)
beirut is next, though i have lost a LOT of my touch that i used to have when i played all the time (like, between classes junior year of college)
i really don't much care for flip cup. kings is okay but i don't get terribly drunk off of it.

basically i like games where there's some skill and competition (and thus trash talk)

Drinking.

And I always win.

I do love me some beer pong but it's not nearly as big a thing here

[Parker]

only ever really played ring of fire, which is pretty big here.

i never really bothered with drinking games aside from "how much alcohol can you fit in your body"

Beer pong is the best drinking game. The best.

Being good means you get to run the table the whole night, everyone else has to set up and get the beer, and people bring you side beers. Beer pong is also one of the only games played at actual parties here, so it's that or just drink casually.

Any other drinking game is for a smaller crowd in my opinion.

What is beer pong?

[comma]

Slap cup is the only fun drinking game. The rest are time wasters.

Yeah, pretty much. Ring of Fire is a painful game. xD Only other one I've really played is Never Have I Ever, in which I don't drink because I don't do things - but regardless, nothing goes better with alcohol than revealing embarrassing stories.

Drinking games while watching movies.. normal and hard modes.. basically find movies and make up rules like The Big Lebowski, drink every time the word dude is said

Oh dear, sweet Formaldyhyde.
