World Series of Beer Pong

The drunk sport of beer pong supposedly started at Dartmouth College frats in the 1950’s-60’s in New Hampshire.

One of these frats, Alpha Delta Phi, was the real “Animal House,” which the 1978 movie was based on.

Since its humble beginnings, beer pong has gone on to conquer the world.

The basic concept is simple: There are two players on each team. You take turns throwing ping-pong balls into plastic cups (ie: usually 16oz. red solo cups). There are 10 cups per side.

And yes, there is a World Series of Beer Pong (WSOBP). Based in Las Vegas, it is the world’s largest beer pong tournament. They also host Best of Championships in satellite cities.
