Flip cup is a popular drinking game in which two teams of players compete against each other to finish drinking their cups and flipping them over before the other team. The game requires a long table, plastic cups, and alcohol.
Variations
Blindfolded Flip Cup - Blindfold all the players, and then they have to flip their cup without seeing it. It will make the game more challenging and hilarious.
Relay Race Flip Cup - Divide your group into two teams and line them up on opposite sides of the table. The first player on each team has to flip their cup before they can pass it to the next person in line. The first team to complete the relay race wins.
Ghost Cup - The first player in line must flip their cup, and then the second player has to do the same. However, before the second player can start flipping their cup, they must first flip the first player's cup, and so on. The game continues until all the cups are flipped.
Partner Flip Cup - Team up with a partner and stand across from each other at the table. Each team has two cups that they must flip. One partner must flip their cup first, and the other partner must flip their cup once the first cup is successfully flipped.
Shot Glass Flip Cup - Instead of using a standard-sized cup, use shot glasses for this version of Flip Cup. It will make the game more challenging and fun.
One-Handed Flip Cup - In this variant, players are only allowed to use one hand to flip their cup. It makes the game more challenging, and players will have to develop new flipping techniques to win.
GAME RULES
Flip Cup is a popular drinking game that involves teams trying to finish a beer and flip their cup upside down before the other team. The rules for Flip Cup are as follows:
Divide players into two teams of equal size, and have them stand on opposite sides of a table.
Each player on the team will have a cup filled with beer or another drink in front of them.
The first player on each team drinks the entire contents of their cup, and then places the empty cup upside down on the edge of the table with the rim hanging over the edge.
Using only one hand, the player then attempts to flip the cup right side up so that it lands on the table.
Once the first player successfully flips their cup, the next player on their team begins drinking and flipping their cup, and so on until all players on the team have finished.
The first team to finish flipping all of their cups wins.
If a player is unable to flip their cup within a certain amount of time, or if the cup falls off the table, they must drink again and try to flip their cup again. If a team member completes their flip before their opponent, the next person in their team can start. The first team to have all their players finish and flip their cup wins the game.
