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.
People tend to blindly cheat to get what they want, and go about it as if it were normal. People don’t usually want to work for things if they can get it the easy way. In Stephen L. Carter’s article “The Rules about Rules”, Carter explains why Americans choose to cheat and how they don’t necessarily know right from wrong. Carter’s interpretation is accurate people do lack integrity due to having low self-esteem, and not having the courage to be different and separating themselves from the crowd.
A match is won by the first side winning two games. The first two games of a match are played to 15 points. If each side wins one game, a tiebreaker game is played to 11 points.
The game's rules were designed by Catherine L. Coghlan and Denise W. Huggin. The purpose of the game is to change a familiar game like Monopoly that most students know into a teaching tool to teach students how real society functions.

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).
A team is allowed only six players on the ice at a time. These players consist of a goalie, right and left defensemen, right and left wingers, and a center. Defensemen stay back towards the blue line so none of the opposing team can get behind them. The wingmen stay towards their respective sides of the net. The center does just that jams the front of the net to either screen (block the view of) the goalie or deflects the shot into the net. The goalie, mostly stays in his crease to protect the goal however if he wants he may leave his crease (the light blue area by the net in the photo).

My search began the night I received this assignment. I went to the search engine we all know and use so well, Yahoo, and began my search from there. When I typed in the words beer pong into the search box, I received almost two hundred thousand related links. I became even more pleased with this result, knowing that there was so much to tell. Eventually I came across a catching site, known as the National Beer Pong League. There is something of this nature that exists? I wondered so I clicked.
When the playoffs start the top seed in the conference will play the lowest seed. Then the second seed will play the seventh seed. The two winners in each conference will face off in the Stanley Cup game. A best of seven series and whoever wins four of the seven games wins the Stanley Cup.
Scoring is not complicated at all. After winning the first point, no matter if the Server or the Receiver wins, his score is fifteen. Then, when a player wins his second point, he has a score of thirty. A third point makes the score forty. The fourth point wins the game. In addition, the score is called deuce if both players have scored three points. The first player to score two consecutive points will win the game. Most matches are played the best out of five sets. In a set, the first player to win six games wins that set if he is up by two games.
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.
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.
Some people say that the love between a mother and her daughter is forever; but what about the understanding? In the case of Waverly Jong and her mother in the story “Rules of the Game,” by Amy Tan, there is much miscommunication and misunderstanding. The story is set in mid-1950’s Chinatown and as the story opens, it is Christmas time. “Rules of the Game” is the telling of how a little girl learns to be more independent but falls into conflict with her mother along the way and becomes a type of trophy. Amy Tan uses elements such as character, symbolism, and setting to portray the themes of struggle between two cultures and independence perfectly in “Rules of the Game.”
“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)
