Beer Olympics

[amarok]

If you guys are able to team up with a bunch of friends, you should try to hold a BEER OLYMPICS.

Beer olympics are usually held within frats in college, but there's no reason you guys can't get something started now. Basically, get a shit ton of beer, an empty house, and a bunch of cups. Make teams of three or four, whatever you can do, and set up tournaments for different drinking games.

A few favorites in our house to do: Flong, 10 cup, 21 cup, quarters, and can jam.

Could u explaain that games for a non american?

Sure.

Flong:

Two teams on the same side of a table so that the table is longer than it is wide from the player's perspective. There is a line of cups, 1 for each player, going down each side of the table. One player from each team goes to the end of their line to act as the catcher for their teams ball and can hinder the opposing teams ability to get their ball if a shot is missed.

The remaining players form a line and the first person for each team begin shooting for a cup in their team's line, competing with each other. Each player must keep shooting until a cup is made. Once it is made, they must chug the cup and make a successful cup flip. The successful player replaces the catcher who goes to the end of the line, and the next person in line begins shooting for another cup. The catcher changes each time a successful cup and flip is made. First team to finish all their cups wins.

10 Cup:

Classic beer pong. Two players per team and a pyramid of 10 cups. A shoot off decides which team goes first. 1 person takes their shot, then their partner takes their shot. If the cup is made, the person opposite the player that made the cup must drink the cup in full. If both players of the same team make their cups in the same turn, they get to go again. There are a lot of variations to the game, as well as house rules, so look on youtube or online for those. Some classics are island, retribution, and re-rack.

21 Cup:

A 3-person per team variation of 10 cup, with 21 cups making the pyramid instead of 10. In this version, three ping pong balls are marked differently. Each player and their opposite on the opposing team can ONLY use this ball. They cannot use one marked differently. Most people do not play with island, as that interrupts the flow of this faster-paced game. This is very much a race.

Look up quarters because and can jam because I don't feel like explaining them. I'm not a huge fan of quarters so I don't participate in that one. Can jam is the frisbee game. Usually we'll play you have to drink the amount of seconds that the opposing players score for.

Another fun game is APONGALYPSE. Only play this is you have several, several hours to dedicate to getting wasted. Get a nice wide table (or two pushed together) and set up a beer pong pyramid as wide as the table. Usually 3-5 players are on each team. You can play this game like 10 cup OR like 21 cup, your preference.
