Set Up
Location
Players should sit or stand around a table. Almost any venue will be acceptable.
Note: Playing in overly crowded places and churches are discouraged.
Beer Cup
Players should place each of their two keg cups in front of them on the table. For each player, one of the keg cups must to be filled with the beer of their choice to the top indent of the cup. This is their beer cup. Every beer cup must be filled to this point at all times throughout the duration of the game. When the amount of beer falls below that point, it must be refilled, once the required amount of consumption is complete, in order for the game to continue.
Quarter Cup
Each player shall store their quarter in the empty keg cup placed in front of them before and after bouts.
How to Play
This game is played in bouts. There is no limit to the number of bouts that can be played. Before a bout can begin, each player must have their beer cup properly filled and must have their quarter in their quarter cup. Each player is dealt a card. The person with the highest card (Aces are the highest) is the player who will start the first bout. No other player is allowed to start the bout. The bout begins when the starting player dumps their quarter out of their quarter cup and onto the table and begins to shoot.
Shooting
The goal of this portion of the game is to shoot your quarter into your quarter cup as fast as you can. Shooting begins once the starting player dumps out their quarter. Each player must quickly follow by dumping out their quarters as well. Each player, including the starting player, then places their quarter cup standing upright in front of them and begins to "shoot" or bounce their quarter into their quarter cup.
According to Cornelius Kerwin, "Rulemaking is the single most important function performed by agencies of government Rulemaking refines, and in some instances defines, the mission of every government agency. In so doing it provides direction and content from budgeting, program implementation, procurement, personnel management, dispute resolution, and other important government activities" (Preface XI). This is the foundation for the book, Rulemaking. The whole text primarily revolves around this statement. Throughout the book Kerwin's central theme is that rulemaking is the single most important function that any government agency has within its possession. Much like other admin law books he discusses how those agencies with their rulemaking powers interpret legislation and proceed forward with making policy.
When the first people of America started playing lacrosse centuries ago, the game served many purposes. It was played to amuse the Creator, to train young men for war, and to settle disputes between tribes (Source B). The game was played by tribes in all parts of the United States and Canada; it was played by the Mexican Kickapoo in Texas, the Seminole in Florida, the Bungi in Manitoba, the Cherokee in Tennessee, and the Passamaquoddy in Maine (Source B). The game was called Baggattaway, meaning they bump hips by the Algonquin tribe, and Tewaarathon, meaning little brother of war, by the Iroquois tribe (Source B).
The first thing to do to start a game of pinball is to insert the coin. This alone requires many fundamental aspects of physics. The player inserts the coin and lets gravity take over. Gravity accelerates the coin to a certain speed in a specific direction or what is called velocity. The coin, which has mass, is now moving at a certain velocity. The coin now has linear momentum. To find the momentum of the coin we would take the mass and multiply it by the velocity. If the velocity were doubled (the coin doubles in speed) then the momentum of the coin would double. The coin then strikes a lever transferring some of its momentum to the lever. The coin then drops into the coin box. Usually this lever is a small wire similar to a paper clip. It has to be of small mass or the momentum of the coin would have lesser of an effect. When the coin strikes the lever it transfers some of its momentum and causes the lever to move. The lever is connected to a switch. This switch momentarily completes a circuit causing electrons to move through the system to notify the game system to start and release a ball into the ball shooter. Amazingly this all happens in the space of about a second.

Throughout the many years, college students have engaged in many activities to either entertain themselves or pass endless time. These activities have ranged from sports, either intramural or varsity, to various clubs and organizations devoted to students personal interests. While these have sparked interest and lasted a long time, none has exceeded the expectations of the wonderful game of beer pong.
Even though parents or educators criticize kids and adults for wasting their time in something that will not help them in life, games provide means for many good things to occur.
maneuvering through the course while killing people on the opposite team to gain victory. Some are better than others at playing, but they are all being shot as well dying, and respawning to the check points. As 30 minutes go by they are all starting to get agitated because they are losing. Gabe, Keanu keep dying, and not helping the team win, while Jerry, Everon, and Phillip are gaining all the points, and pulling all the weight. They eventually take a break to recoup, and lets some stress of the game
After all of the necessary items are gathered, it is time to set up the game. First, pick two teams, made up of either one or two people. There should be even teams, but Canadian doubles are acceptable. A Canadian double is a team of two, verses a team of one. Then each team should take six cups and set them up in pyramid form on the far ends of the table making sure that the rims of the cups are touching each other. Once the cups are set, they should be filled with beer. A lite, cheap beer is probably the best due to the fact that it is economical and it will go down easier. In the version that I’m most familiar with, there are two full beers in each set of six cups, and you can fill these cups however you want. For example, if you wanted, you could put all the beer in the back three cups and very little in the front three. The front three are easier to hit, because they are closer to the person shooting, so if you put less beer in them, it would make the game harder for your opponent.
After realizing how addicting games could be, two professors from the University of Utah wanted to know the reason why people get into games. In 2008, these professors examined 152 high school students. When asked for reasons for why they played games, they all differentiated. These reasons consisted of excitement, mastery, having nothing else to do, having friends who play and also just to make them feel better. These reasons to play are relative to all level of
For many years, beer has accumulated the mainstream idea that beer is typically consumed in the party-type scenes. It has also created a popular thinking that young men that drink beer are manly, wild, girl-loving, partying individuals. Recently, however, it has seemed as though beer companies have begun to stray away from that way of thinking and have begun forming a new ideology. That being, that beer is an alcoholic beverage that can bring people together to have a good time. Guinness has taken this way of thinking and pushed it even further. With this ad, Guinness wants to show that men who drink beer can still be manly, but also sensitive, sympathetic and supportive at the same time. They show these qualities through the actions of the men playing the basketball game.
Establish Rapport: People all over the world drink alcohol as a way to have fun and enjoy time with their friends but don’t know exactly what they are drinking and how it affects them in the future.
.... Also, whether going to parties with friends or playing games alone, the purpose is essentially the same; to have a good time. The advantages of living a Second Life are many. People bring themselves into this virtual world for the freedom to do anything they choose; Second Life presents its residents with many capabilities to be and do anything their imagination will permit them to. There is the originality of creating and building, as well as the ability to perform and simply have fun, yet there are also many relationships and friendships formed in this online world. These are communal attachments that extend outside of Second Life and into the real world, that influence the user's frame of mind long after they have turned off their computer and that they appreciate and hold in high regard as much - if not more - than their relationships in the real world.
Let’s ask a question: why do people start using alcohol at the first place? And why they start doing it at such young age? Well, just “like other adult drinkers, college students expect alcohol to produce a series of positive effects – relaxation, socialization, sexuality – and the strength of these positive expectancies is related to drinking” (Walters & Baer, 2006). And who wouldn’t take a couple drinks to gain a group of friends? It lowers social inhibitions, so it is very well known among shy individuals as well. However, this activity can be also pressurized by peers. In this case, pressure wouldn’t be effective on people who do not accept or see positive aspects of occasional drinking. That means, everyone starts by saying ‘yes’ to a glass.
“The "cue stick" was developed in the late 1600's. When the ball lay near a rail, the mace was very inconvenient to use because of its large head. In such a case, the players would turn the mace around and use its handle to strike the ball. The handle was called a "queue" meaning "tail" from which we get the word "cue." For a long time only men were allowed to use the cue; women were forced to use the mace because it was felt they were more likely to rip the cloth with the shaper cue.” (PoolTables)
