Well, I am in college now and will be playing beer pong for the first time soon. I have no real idea what to expect or how this really works. I am old enough to drink, and I will have friends with me so I am not worried about going to the frat party where we will be playing so don't worry about that.
Can anyone explain how it works? (I am a girl and sports aren't my thing)
Trauma answered Thursday May 6 2010, 1:30 am: You can play it with two people, but a lot of people do it two against two. Someone will set some plastic cups with some beer in them (usually not a lot). There's a certain way to set them up, but I'm sure someone else will do that for you. You'll get a plastic ping-pong ball, and when it's your turn, you'll try to throw it into one of the other person's/team's cups. If you make it in, they have to drink the beer in that cup, and if they get the ball into one of your cups, you'll drink the beer in that cup. Usually, whoever loses has to drink the remaining cups of the other team. One of the big issues with beer pong is you may not realize how much you've had to drink until it really hits you, so it's easy to get too drunk, which is dangerous, so be careful and know your limits.
