How to Play the Drinking Game Caps

Caps is a game of skill, but most participants will find their skill decreasing as the game progresses. That's because it's a drinking game. College parties are a great place to find people who want to play the drinking game Caps.

Things You'll Need

• Two cups
• Four players
• Beer (preferably in bottles)
• Beer caps

Instructions

1. Divide the group into two teams. There should be two people on each team.

2. Sit each team about 10 or so feet away from each other. Each person should face someone from the other team.

3. Place a half-full glass of beer in front of each person.

4. Take turns trying to throw bottle caps into the other person's cup. If you make it in, the other person drinks and you get a point.

5. Return a throw. If someone makes a shot into your cup, you have the chance to return it. If you successfully return the shot, they have to drink and you get a point. But they also have a chance to return!

6. Tally up the points. When one team reaches a pre-determined score, they win and teams are rearranged.

Tips & Warnings

• Record your score by placing caps in front of you after you get a point.

• Turns rotate back and forth between the players sitting across from each other on opposite teams.

• For specific campus rules, see the Caps (drinking game) Wikipedia article.

• Some campuses have strict rules on distance, cups and caps that can be used.

• Careful not to drink the cap!

• If you're going to get smashed, walk home or stay on the couch.
