beer pong

Fraternity drinking game

Beer pong is a drinking game where players throw ping-pong balls across a table, trying to land them in cups of beer arranged in a triangle at the opposite end.

When a ball lands in a cup, the opposing team drinks its contents.

The game is a staple of American college parties: We set up beer pong in the basement.
