How to Play:

1. To start, each team gets 1 ball. Square up with your opponent. Count down from 3. Both players shoot at the same time while looking deep into each others' eyes.

2. The team that makes the eye to eye shot starts.

3. Each team takes turns shooting the balls at the cups.

4. If a cup is made, drink the cup and remove it from play right away. The cup must be drank before that team's next round can begin.

5. This continues until there is only one cup left.

6. Making the last cup sends the other team into final rebuttal mode.

7. If both teammates make the last cup in the same round, the other team does not get a chance for rebuttal.

8. During rebuttal, each player on the losing team get gets a chance to shoot to send the game into overtime. Losing players keep shooting until they miss.

9. If the losing team is not able to make all the remaining cups, they lose, and the game is over.

10. If the losing team completes rebuttal and makes all the cups, they send the game into overtime. If both of the losing players make the last cup in rebuttle, their team starts with the balls in overtime, otherwise the winning team starts overtime.

11. Over-time consists of 3 cups in a triangle and follows all the same rules including rebuttal, and can go into as many overtimes as needed until there is a true winning team.

Standard Rules (For a clean, simple game):

• Hand Rule: When shooting the ball, the players hand may never cross over the end of their side of the table.

• Balls Back: If both teammates make a cup (in the same turn), they get the balls back and can both shoot again. They can continue to do this as long as they both make a cup.

• Same Cup: If both players are able to make the ball in the same cup before the other team can remove it (or if they forget to), it counts for 3. The other team must pick 2 other cups of their choice to remove from the game. This also counts for balls back.

• Fingering/Blowing: When a ball is shot at your cup, if it is spinning around the inside and has not landed in your low quality alcohol of choice, you can use fingering or blowing for defense. To finger you must use one or 2 fingers to quickly scoop and pop the ball out of the cup. Blowing works the same way by blowing into the cup to pop the ball out. With both methods, the ball cannot touch the beer. If the ball is wet, the cup counts. If the fingers get wet or the beer splashes out at all, the cup also counts. Generally - males use finger method, females use blow method.

Revelry Rules (Additional rules for the “experienced” drinker):

• Fire: Once a player makes a cup in two consecutive turns, they must call "heating up." If they make a cup in a third consecutive turn, they call "fire" and get the ball back and can shoot until they miss.

• Behind the Back: If you shoot and miss, but get the ball before it hits the ground or the other team gets it, you may shoot the ball again, but must shoot it behind your back. This applies to men and women, the rules of drinking know no genders.

• Island: Each player on each team gets to call island once. An island is any cup that is not touching any other cup. You must call out specifically that you are shooting for the island, and if you make it, it counts as 2 and the other team must pick one other cup of their choice to remove. If you accidentally make a cup other than the island cup after calling island, the shot does not count. Island cup cannot be called when there are only 1 or 2 cups left.

• Bouncing: If you bounce the ball off the table and make it into a cup, it counts as 2 and the other team can pick any other cup of their choice to remove. Once the ball bounces, the other team is allowed to swat or hit the ball away. If you make a cup by bouncing, while acceptable, you may be subject to ridicule from the other team and be known as a "bounce ass bitch".

• Bitch Cup: If the first cup you make is the middle cup, you must drop your pants and cannot pull them up until you make another cup.

• Circle of Death: If, without re-racking, your team makes the front cup, middle cup, and 2 back corner cups (in any order), leaving a perfect circle of the cups, you automatically win and the other team does not get a chance for rebuttal.

• Player's Cup: If a ball shot during play lands in any additional drinking cup, that player must chug and finish that drink.

• Trolling: If a player on the losing team does not make a single cup the entire game, during the next game, they must sit under the table and finish a beer before the game is over. (Naked lap is also an option for a player that does not make a single cup the entire game. That player must strip naked and perform a lap around the house/event they are currently at).

Racks:

• During the game, each team is allowed 2 re-racks from the allowable list below.
