Slap Cup, Drinking Game Rules

Category: Pong & Cup Games · Players: 4+ · You’ll need: Lots of cups; 2 ping pong balls; beer

Rage Cage's rowdier sibling, catch someone and you slap their cup across the room.

Setup: Same as Rage Cage: a cluster of quarter-filled beer cups around one full center cup, 2 ping pong balls, 2 empty cups given to two players opposite each other.

How to play:

1. Both players bounce their ball into their own empty cup. First try = pass the cup+ball to anyone; later tries = pass to your left.
2. Catch someone (you sink yours while the player next to you is still shooting): slap their cup off the table.
3. The slapped player grabs a beer cup from the center cluster, chugs it, retrieves their cup, and starts shooting again while play continues around them.
4. When the cluster runs dry, the next person caught drinks the full center cup, game over.

Slap Cup, Variations

• Full send: The slap may send the cup anywhere in the room; the slapped player must retrieve it before shooting again, chug first, then chase.
• No-slap zone: First-time players get one grace catch-up before slaps apply to them.
• Refill keeper: The most recently slapped player also refills the center cup, losing comes with chores.
