    How about hitting a cup once in a while, and stop whining, Pareene?

    Beer Pong is disgusting and germ-filled.. I played with my friend's douchebag frat brother in Vegas and the bar provided these nasty ping pong balls, and at least in his version (not sure what the official rules say) you have to drink the beer that your opponents ball lands in.. which is disgusting on many levels... the ball hit the floor so many times where there were hairs and shit sticking to it... and then you have the grimy wet hands of your opponent all over the ball.. jesus it's a germophobe's nightmare.. :p

    @Rumpelstilskin: No net, teams at either end, hands behind their backs. They blow a ping pong ball and try to keep it from going off the table on their side. If it goes off on your side, your team has to get drink.


    Princeton used to have a tournament with bales of hay in which the participants could vomit and keep going. I suspect that doesn't exist any more.

    @MisterHippity: There was a fellow at a fraternity house next door that drank too much, went up to his bedroom on the second floor, crawled into his upper bunk bed beside the open window, rolled off the bed and out the window, fell two stories to the concrete where he remained unnoticed until found dead much later the next day.

    Beer pong? For amateurs. We played "Fork and Onion," which involved tossing an onion that was impaled on a fork. In mid flight, the thrower would yell either "fork" or "onion," which meant the portion of the projectile the receiver would have to catch. It had it's own song:


    Fork and onion,

    Fork and onion,

    Go together like Paul and Bunyon.

    If your thumb's prehensile,

    Grab the bulb or the utensile.


    If you missed, you had to get up to refill everone's beers.

    @BadUncle: We played "Stump," which involved hammering nails into stumps, indoors, and resulted in lots of wood chips all over the floor and many bruised fingers.

    @metoometoo: I love stupid games. We had one called "The Game," which required a group to stand in a huddle with full beers, drinking quickly before passing your cup to someone else. Last person with an empty cup had to refill everyone's beers, before the game began again. Which was funny until the time I had chicken pox and didn't know it, thus spreading it to 5 other students. Yay, games.


    @Shivery.McPickles: 100% truth.

    I remember Zoom, Schwartz, and Puffigliano, and maybe a game called Viking, but Beer Pong never made it to my alma mater.

    I went to college at a pretty urban university, and didn't hang around Greek life at all, so beer pong was not a part of my college experience. I only played it for the first time afterward, when I went to parties with other people I met through coworkers and such. I cannot stand people who a) ask "whoa, did you even go to college?" when I tell them I didn't play, and b) are fucking anal as hell about the rules and yell at guests constantly for not knowing the specific rules that clearly only applied to their respective college. Its just this weird beer pong sub-culture that I was never a part of and probably never will be. Strange.
