Setting Up Mini Beer Pong: A Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Gather Your Materials

You'll need a small table or flat surface, 20 shot glasses, a couple of ping pong balls, and of course, your beverage of choice.

Step 2: Set Up Your Playing Field

Arrange 10 shot glasses on each side of the table in a triangle formation (4-3-2-1). This will be your playing field.

Step 3: Fill the Glasses

Fill each shot glass about halfway with your chosen beverage. Remember, the aim is to enjoy the game, not to get too drunk too quickly!

Step 4: Choose Your Teams

Divide your group into two teams. Each team will take turns throwing the ping pong balls into the other team's glasses.

Step 5: Start the Game

The game begins with a player from each team trying to bounce a ping pong ball into one of the opposing team's glasses. If they succeed, the opposing team must drink the contents of that glass. The game continues until one team has no glasses left.
