Beer Pong is a game played by 4 players, two on each side. It is played with two ping pong balls. Six cups are then placed on each side in a pyramid fashion (six on each side). Also to keep the game sanitary, a cup of water is placed on each side to rinse the ball in case it drops on the floor. The cups are filled half full (roughly 2 beer cans will be used for each side).
The object of the game is to shoot the ping pong balls into the opponents cups, making them drink. Once all cups on one side of the table are made, then the team who made the cups win.
Special rules: Make it till you miss... when a team makes the last cup, the opposing team has an opportunity to make all the remaining cups as long as they do not miss, if they do, game over.
Satellites - the cup you are drinking out of is your satellite, if an opposing player makes it into your cup, game over.
Bounces - bounces can be off of anything, the table, wall, a person, as long as it bounces, a bounce counts as two cups.
If both players from one team makes the same cup in the same turn, they win.
Every house has different house rules, usually posted on the wall. Find out what house rules they use when playing and abide by them.

The stench of stale beer. Most often experienced the morning after a party. Is also encountered in the keg room of respectable bars, or ubiquitously in dives.
Poo-whiff! beer pong!

Beer Pong. As witnessed in a San Leandro, CA garage.
Ping Pong with full (opened or unopened, player's choice) cans of beer on each corner of the table.
Play. Since a ping pong ball strike is not normally enough to upset a full beer can, when your opponent hits a can on your side, and they score (note: the can is a "paddle" of yours, thus the can "hit" the ball and if it fails to clear the net on your opponent’s side, they score. In rare cases a hard and direct enough hit may cause the can to volley the ball over the net sucessfully. This event is usually cheered by all), you must consume the entire beer in the un-opened variation. In the open can game, simply take a chug and replace the can on the corner.
Warning: in open can games, a ping-pong ball CAN spill partially full beers. In the case a beer is wasted in this manner, the player who failed to catch and save the contents of the falling can must consume an entire can from their opponent's side, and must make the fridge run to replace to spilled beer. Open can games are best played with very cheap beer.

I always play beer pong with COORS, so if waste few, no one really cares. Try the "Silver Bullets" - they're taller and can sometimes score for you!

BEER PONG is a popular drinking game in which the object of the game is to sink a ping-pong ball into all of the other teams cups before they get all of yours.
THE RULES
beerpong rules vary based on the "house rules" but the general rules (from a Bay Area point of view) are as follows:
1. Both teams of two sets up a pyramid of 10 18oz cups at the very end of the table and fill them with 3 cans of (cheap) beer. (4-3-2-1).
2. Each side picks one person to shoot for who goes first. The two players must keep eye contact for the first shot and not look at the cups while they shoot, and when someone makes it that cup is not drank, it only determines which team gets to shoot first.
3. Which ever team gets the "eye to eye" shot gets to shoot first, and both players take turn shooting. Their elbow must not cross the edge of the table when shooting.
4. If they make a shot, the other team drinks that cup.
5. If they bounce the ball into a cup the other team must drink two cups, but if when shooting a bounce shot the other team is allowed to swat the ball away before it sinks so you have to be sneaky.
6. If both players shoot the ball into the same cup the other team either has to drink 3 or 4 cups depending on house rules.
7. If both players make their shot, they get their balls back and get to shoot again. If a player makes 3 shots in a row they get to shoot until they miss.
8. If you miss your shot and the ball rolls back to your side you are allowed to turn around and shoot behind your back as an extra shot.
9. All trick shots (ex. off the wall) are worth 3 cups.
10. If someone knocks over one of their own cups or hits the ball before it bounces or hits a cup they must drink one of their own cups.
11. Each team is allowed 1 or 2 re-racks depending on house rules. A Re-rack is when the cups are all scattered and you can put them into a formation of your choice to make it easier to make.
12. After the last cup is made the other team gets one chace for redemption and each player gets to shoot again. If one or both make it they get to shoot til they miss. If by some miracle they make all the cups as well the game is a tie.
13. After a team wins with the last cup the losing team must drink all the cups remaining on the winning side that they did not make.
14. If a player doesnt make a single shot they have a punishment based on house rules. Typically they have to get naked or sit under the table for the next game.

It is rumored that Al Capone invented beer pong. During the prohibition period, Al and his friends would gather together in dark, sketchy basements to throw balls into red cups.
Al Capone's Friends: What can we do with this empty ping pong table?
Al Capone: Beer Pong!
And thus it was invented.
