Sharon Playing Beer Pong

Beer pong is a drinking game consisting of 2 teams of 2 players. Each team stands at opposite ends of a long table, and sets up 10 beer glasses into the shape of a triangle. The beer glasses are then partially filled with beer. Each player in team 1 is then given a ping pong ball, which they try to throw into one of the opponent’s beer glasses. If they get the ball into the opponent’s glass, the opponents drink the beer in that glass, and remove it from their triangle. During a throw, the opposing team is not allowed to touch the ball until it has bounced. Thereafter, they can swat it away at will, thereby stopping it falling into a glass off a rebound. If a throw bounces on the table first, and then goes into a glass, the defending team has to drink double. During play each team is allowed 2 restacks – This means that as glasses are removed, and gaps form in the triangle, you get to push the glasses back together, hopefully making it easier. If both players get their balls into a glass, the balls are returned to them and they get to throw again. If not, it is the end of their turn, and their opponents now get a chance to throw at their glasses. Once one team has managed to throw balls into all 10 glasses, their opponents then have to drink whatever remains on the table.
