Beer Pong Anyone?...

Where’s the beer pong? Do you want to be my partner? Who’s got next? You down to play?

It’s become a commodity at your common house hold party. Whether at a college campus or neighborhood apartment kickback, tailgate or bowling alley tournament, beer pong is now seen at every social gathering imaginable. A hobby rising beyond reasonable demand there is no telling the endless possibilities for modern day innovators to come and sweep the ever so growing industry of beer pong by surprise.

We are all familiar with and have most likely seen it at one point or have even attempted to play it. It’s an epidemical hobby fun for any occasion - that is if you’re planning on bringing some energy into the atmosphere. The game will get a little rowdy and at times very competitive so beware of the ego’s as true competitive spirits will be sure to arise from within many who perhaps didn’t know they had it in them.

For all those who have never really paid attention to the game of beer pong or just need a further descriptive explanation of beer pong the game is as follows:
Beer pong is a drinking game in which players throw a ping-pong ball to the opposite side of a table with the hope of landing the ball in a cup of beer on the other end.

The game typically consists of two player teams and 6 or 10 cups set up on each side in a triangle formation. There are no official rules, so rules may vary, though usually standard house rules are very similar.
The objective of the game is to eliminate the other teams' cups before one's own cups are eliminated. When a ball lands in a cup, which is generally 1/4 to 1/3 full, that cup is eliminated and the opposing team must drink all of the beer inside the cup.

The losing team must drink all the beer remaining in the winning team's cups. The order of play varies – both players on one team shoot followed by both players on the opposing team or players on opposite teams can alternate back and forth.
Beer pong continues to grow each and everyday making the niche industry a creative source for imaginable possibilities. Demand creates opportunity and the opportunity is open for any thrill seeking innovator who is willing to tap into a solidified market that is sure to bring residual revenue for years to come.
