Rules change everywhere you go, sometimes from house to house on the same block. Personally I prefer 'gentleman's rules'.

No tricky shots, bouncing, crazy 'if your a guy you do this, a girl does this' crap, no cheating to win. One man, one shot, remove the cup when they make it. A real game to drink to...

I agree with Slaughter, because it's true, that the rules always have some form of a variation to them depending where you go. Hence why a lot of places will have a set "house rules". Personally I say if you are dumb enough to let them bounce it in when you only have 2 cups then it counts as the 2 cups to make you shoot your redemption shots. Only exception I will put on that is if it was an accidental bounce I would make it not count or only be 1 cup, if the second then an accidental bounce on the last cup wouldn't count.

He's right... Rules vary by every state I've played in( SC, PA, NJ, NY, FL) but I've never seen a house where u can win on a bounce. And I've played in Jersey where everyone thinks they're the best pong player ever and that they know all rules.

i agree with SlaughterHighMe but there is this one rule which is cool ive played. Its the nba jam on fire rule. You make 2 cups in a row and u say ur heating up and if u make another then u get to keep shooting til u miss. If ur good that rule is good for u.

How do you guys feel about "sniping" (ie using the ball to knock your opponents beer off of the table)? I think it's a fair play becasue it's one of those win/win rules where you eliminate a cup but they don't have to drink. But my friends always outlaw it becasue it mucks up their floor.

All the rules they mentioned I've played with in some form except for "guys can finger".

u guys are all *beep* dumb. its called HOUSE RULES. owner of the house makes the rules, thats why there are so many different variations all over the place...

Yeah that's obviously the single biggest problem with this movie.

Beer pong is not a standardized game that is played the exact same across the country. Every college has their own variations or extra rules. I noticed several things in the movie that would have broken the rules where I played, but who cares.

The only thing that didnt make sense was when they were giving the ball back after one guy made a shot but before the other made his. We played that if both players got a cup in the turn they both got another shot, and I think thats a rule they were following in the movie, but they were prematurely giving the ball back.
