How to Play Overtime Beer Pong Games

Beer pong is a staple of the college lifestyle, and you want to be completely clear on all of the rules before you start playing. When each team has one cup left, and both teams throw their ball into the opposing team's cup, the game doesn't have to be over. Follow a few simple rules to keep the game going in overtime.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Plastic cups
• Beer
• Ping-pong balls

1. Play a normal game of beer pong. When both teams have one cup left and both teams throw their balls into the cups, go into beer pong overtime.

2. Place three cups in a triangle or pyramid shape, with two cups in back and one in front. Line the back row of cups up with the edge of the table.

3. Pour beer into each cup. Use more beer than you'd use in normal play. This is beer pong overtime, so the stakes are higher.

4. Shoot the ping-pong balls. The person who threw the last ball in before overtime gets to throw first. If the first person makes the cup and the second person misses, the first person wins beer pong overtime.

5. Force another beer pong overtime. When both teams have only one cup left, and both teams throw their balls into the remaining cups on the same throw, you'll have to play another overtime. Play continues like this until one team misses on the last cup.

Tips & Warnings

• The rearrange rule does not apply during beer pong overtime. If the cups become separated, you cannot rearrange them.
