BEER PONG TROPHY - ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW

What is Beer Pong?

Beer Pong as its name implies a drinking game. A table, two sets of six to ten beer cups arranged in a triangle form, and a game of table tennis-like ball, are essentials to play the Beer Pong game.

Each side of the team consists of two or more players. A player has to attempt to throw the ball into the opponent’s cups. Suppose, a ball lands in a cup, it is considered a small success, and the contents of that cup are consumed by the opponent team. Now, that cup is removed from the triangle made of cups.

The final success is defined by the elimination of all cups of the opponent’s side. So, whichever team does it earlier, will declare it as the winning team of the game. And naturally, it will have more beer to drink.

How Beer Pong Originated?

The Ping Pong game is behind the origin of Beer Pong. The original version of Beer Pong resembled a lot of an actual Ping Pong game. A net fixed at the middle of a TT table. One or more cups of beer are placed on each side of the table. Peddles were used in the game.

Later on, a game invented without peddles and given a name, Beer Pong. In some areas, it also became famous as Beirut. Bucknell University has invented a somewhat similar game and named it Throw Pong. Later on, most of the game rules were adopted in Beer Pong and became the latest version that we play today.

What is the setup of the Beer Pong Game?

I have narrated most of it at the beginning. Of course, common cups used are 18-US-fluid-ounce (530ml) made of disposable plastic. Ridgelines in the cup indicate the amount of liquid or beer. 

For drinkers, light beer of 3.2-5% ABV is used while for non-drinkers, root beer (non-alcoholic) or plain drinking water is used. For health security, drinking beer is kept separate from the filling liquid. 

Health Hazards

Beer Pong in Wikipedia, states several health hazards arise from the game. Beer drinking makes students in university and people who played it in bars addicted. If the drink is not safe, it can lead to alcohol poisoning. During the COVID-19 pandemic, a group of young people in Denmark were contaminated with the virus through the ball.

Legal Restraints 

In many regions of the world, alcohol is banned. Similarly, many universities in Australia and the USA don’t officially allow any drink on campus. In such cases, non-alcoholic or water-like safe liquids become the preferences.

How Beer Pong Trophies & Awards Spur up? 

Unfortunately, participants and the winning team cannot get satisfaction merely with non-alcoholic liquids. To keep their motivation alive, many smart organizers have invented a new concept, Beer Pong Trophy.

Yes, trophies and awards are offered to win teams and participants to make the game memorable forever.
