As one of our personal favorites, this drinking game comes highly recommended from our staff. You’ll need 6 cups, lots of beer, and some thirsty people to play this game. If you can get a group of people to play, you’ll be better off. If not, you’ll be walking sideways. Either way you will probably have a great time.

The drinking game of 6 cups can actually be played with fewer than 6 cups, although we would probably have to change the name. Read the instructions below to get started:

1. Line up 6 cups in a row on a flat surface.


2. The cups should be empty when you start the game.


3. Each player take a turn rolling the dice.


4. The number that turns up on the dice corresponds to the number of the cup in line.


5. If the cup is empty, fill it with as much beer as you want.


6. If the cup contains beer, drink the entire thing and then roll again.

We’ve seen groups of people add on to the rules of the game. For example, if you happen to clear the table, such that there are no cups left with beer in them, you can tell each of the other players to take 6 drinks of beer.
