The Merits of Civil War

In a far less heated poll, than the legendary favorite cheap bear poll, something that was so dramatic multiple articles were written about it and the bottom picture of the website was also changed to fit the winner, fratty light. This latest poll is more about a medium for people to drink all kinds of cheap beers in a faster manner. And since I think we all agree that Beirut/Beer Pong, depending on your geographic location, is the best drinking game out there, we thought we’d ask about the alternatives. Civil War is similar to Ruit in many ways, but it is faster paced and a way to have more than just four people play. Technically, Civil War can be played with as many people as you want as long as you have a big enough table and this adds to its appeal. For those of you who don’t know how to play, you set up three cups in front of you and the goal is hit the opposing teams cups before you hit your own are hit. You can throw the ball at anytime, and there is no order to throwing, but you must make sure you drink your cups if they are hit, before you can throw. Civil War can get way too intense at times, with people fighting over balls, and balls bouncing everywhere. This makes it less appealing to some people, but what it really comes down to is that there is something inherently enjoyable with throwing ping pong balls into cups that have beer in them. So if any readers out there haven’t played civil war, give it a try and let us know how you feel about it.
This guys are super lame, but its the only picture I could find.
