A Plastic Cup Used For Flip Cup

Flip cup is a fun, social game played with beer. It is easy and exciting.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Beer
  • Plastic Cups
  • Four or more people
  1. Step 1

    Divide into two, even teams. Teams need to have at least two members, and can be very large. Each of the two teams must have the same number of people. The teams should go to opposite sides of a table or counter.

  2. Step 2

    Each person needs to fill a plastic cup to the same level. Place the cup in front of each player.

  3. Step 3

    Once your cup in completely empty, place it on the edge of the table/counter mouth up. Proceed to try to flip the cup, by flicking the bottom of the cup with one or two fingers, so it lands upside down.

  5. Step 5

    When the cup lands, the next person starts to drink and flip their cup. Continue until one team drinks and flips all cups. That team is the winner!

Tips & Warnings
  • Make sure you have enough beer. A large group will need a lot.
  • Larger teams = more fun.
  • Do not let anyone drink too much too fast or they may become drunk or sick quickly.
