Oche Pong

Oche Pong is a new twist on the classic party game of beer pong. Playing beer pong just got easier: set up Oche Pong on the wall, on a pop-up tailgate tent, or anywhere else where you do not want to be limited by a table. Now you can play balls to the wall beer pong and save the floor space to get down on the dance floor!

Oche, pronounced like hockey without the “h”, is the technical term for the throw line in darts. Gameplay is very similar to the classic bar game of darts and Oche Pong’s shape gets its inspiration from old world pub signs in design. If you are a bar owner, Oche Pong is a perfect low cost addition to bring fun to the club!

Oche Pong on Tent with Bungee Cords

Great for tailgating!

 

There are three popular ways to set up Oche Pong. You can play on a wall if you have nails or skrews. You can play on a glass surface like a window with hooked suction cups. You can even play at the tailgate by hooking Oche Pong to bungee cords. If you order through their website Oche Pong ships with FREE hooked suction cups and bungee cords for your convenience. We put our Oche Pong on the sliding glass door at the new crib where there wasn’t enough space for a full beer pong table.

Rules

Oche Pong on glass with suction cups

Suction cups stick to glass!

There are two main “official rules” variations of Oche Pong: one board and two boards:

 

Game Play with 1 board

Two teams consist of 1 or 2 players.

Each team gets 2 pong balls per turn.

Teams alternate turns with 2 throws per turn, each team member must attempt a shot per turn.

Cups are removed when a ball lands inside the cup.

If a team makes two successful shots in a turn they are awarded a third shot.

Teams keep score by collecting cups.

Each team can call for 1 re-rack, per game.

The first team to 6 cups wins.

In the event of a 5 to 5 tie, a 3 cup overtime applies and the first to 7 cups wins.

So please join us in going balls to the wall with Oche Pong!

Game Play with 2 Boards

Oche Pong double board

Double the fun

Two teams consist of 1 or 2 players.

Each team gets 2 pong balls per turn.

Teams alternate turns with 2 throws per turn, each team member must attempt a shot per turn.

Cups are removed when a ball lands inside the cup.

If a team makes two successful shots in a turn they are awarded a third shot.

The first team to eliminate all cups is the winner.

Re-Racks (Optional)

Repositioning the cups is generally permitted once or twice during game play. Re-racks or the number of re-racks should be stated before game play.  If you are looking for an official number to satisfy some spirited conversation then let’s say one.

End Game/ Overtime (Optional)

Once a team eliminates all cups on their board, the opposing team has one last opportunity to send the game into overtime.  The opposing team is given the chance to throw until they miss without any limits to the number of throws. The game is over if any shot misses. If the team has not used all their re-racks, they can do so once before end game starts. If said team also eliminates all cups on their board, the game goes into overtime.  Overtime consists of 3 cups put back into game play anywhere on the board they chose and normal game play resumes.

Tall Boy (Beer Pong All-Stars Rule)

If a player makes the top cup on the first turn, the opposing team must drink a tall boy.

Giant Beer Pong

Giant beer pong takes the popular drinking game to the next level. We have seen Jimmy Fallon playing rounds on The Tonight Show with his guests such as Zoë Kravitz, Nina Dobrev, and Pitbull. Now you can play too at your next party. Giant Beer Pong is an oversized twist on the time honored game of beer pong. Instead of the classic red solo cups this game makes use of giant buckets and softball sized “beer pong balls.” To play 6 buckets are set up in a pyramid formation on each side 6 to 8 yards apart. Each player gets an oversized ball to shoot once per turn. Every Time a bucket is made a person on the other team must chug half of a beer. If both players on a team make the same bucket they get balls back. This game is a great pastime at the park, at the tailgate, on the beach, or at the pool.

Check out some fun clips of celebrities playing oversized beer pong on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon below. Jimmy will get a win one of these days…

Stainless Steel Beer Pong Set

Stainless Steel Beer Pong Set

Classy!

Stainless Steel Beer Pong Set

Ready to add some class to your beer pong experience? Invest in a stainless steel beer pong set from CupsCo. This metal beer pong kit is sure to last you through your entire beer pong career. The kit comes with 20 top quality 1/8″ stainless steel cups. Each cup is hand polished for a brilliant shine. In addition the kit comes with 4 beer pong balls ready to go. The beer pong kit comes in a bombproof aluminum carrying case complete with precision cut foam inserts to keep your new cups safe and protected from scratching.

Is a stainless steel set worth it?

  • It’s reusable. No more buying sleeves of plastic cups for every party. Rinse them and they’re ready for next weekend.
  • It won’t tip as easily. Metal cups are heavier than plastic, so fewer games get decided by a spilled cup.
  • It plays a little different. A hard rim can kick a ball out that a plastic cup would have swallowed, so soft arcs win. See how to throw.
  • It’s a gift. For the friend who already has the table, the sign and the trophy, a polished steel set in a carrying case is the upgrade.

Bounce Shot – Rules of Beer Pong #23

23. Bounce Shot

In a nutshell: bounce your shot off the table into a cup and the other team pulls two cups instead of one, but they can swat it.

Not in my house! The bounce shot is how comebacks happen: two cups for one shot. The catch is that the other team gets a swing at it, so a lazy bounce is just a gift.

Beer Pong Bounce

Not in my house

How bounce shots work

  1. Bounce it off the table. The ball hits the table before dropping into a cup.
  2. Two cups. The made cup plus one bonus cup come off.
  3. Both shooters can bounce in the same turn.
  4. The defense can swat it. Once the ball hits the table, defenders can block it under the defense rule.

Bounce shot tips

  • Bounce when the defense is distracted. Better yet, create the distraction.
  • A bounce is easier to make but easy to block, so pick your moment.

Bounce shot combos

Call island and bounce it in, and the defending team pulls the island cup plus 2 bonus cups.

FAQ

Can you bounce the ball in beer pong?
Yes. A bounce shot that goes in counts for two cups, but the defense can swat it once it hits the table.

Do you have to bounce the ball in beer pong?
No. Bouncing is optional; most shots are thrown on the fly.

Do bounce shots count for two cups?
Yes, at our house and most others.

Can you block a bounce shot?
Yes, once it hits the table. Never before.

Keep the arguments off the table. Post your bounce rules so nobody argues mid-game: house rules signs from the Beer Pong All-Stars shop.

Celeb Shot – Rules of Beer Pong #22

22. Celeb Shot

In a nutshell: once per game, each player can hand the ball to anyone in the room and have them shoot for you.

Having a rough night at the table? Hand the ball to someone who isn’t. The celeb shot is your one lifeline per game, so choose wisely.

Celeb Shot

You don’t see that everyday!

How the celeb shot works

  1. Call it before the shot. Say “celeb shot” and pick your shooter.
  2. Anyone in the room. Pick wisely.
  3. Once per player per game.
  4. No bonus cups. A celeb shot can only make a regular cup.

FAQ

Can the celeb shot win the game?
At most houses, yes, but it can’t earn bonus cups.

Can you pick a player from another team?
The house decides. Most say anyone not on the other team.

Keep the arguments off the table. Add the celeb shot to your house rules: house rules signs from the Beer Pong All-Stars shop.

Spilled Cup – Rules of Beer Pong #21

21. Spilled Cup

In a nutshell: knock over your own cup and it counts as made: pull it.

Every rowdy game has a spilled cup eventually, usually when someone dives at a bounce shot. Your cup, your fault: it comes off the table. Keep a towel handy.

Spilled Cup

Oops

How the spilled cup rule works

  1. Your cup, your fault. If you or your partner knock over one of your own cups, it counts as made and comes off the table.
  2. It happens a lot on defense. Swatting at bounce shots is the most common way to spill.
  3. Spilling a made cup costs a drink. If the defending team knocks over a cup that was already made, they drink an extra; no extra cups are pulled.

Spilled last cups

  • If the defending team spills its own last cup, it loses.
  • If the shooting team spills the defenders’ last cup, refill it, unless your house plays beaming.

Prevent spills

A beer pong mat keeps cups in place, and a towel by the table saves the floor.

FAQ

If you knock over a cup in beer pong, does it count?
If it’s your own cup, yes: it counts as made, so pull it. If the other team knocks one of your cups over, refill it and keep playing.

Does a spilled cup count toward ring of fire?
No. Only made cups count toward the ring.

What if the shooters knock over a cup that isn’t the last one?
Refill it and keep playing.

Keep the arguments off the table. Post the spilled cup rule to settle it fast: house rules signs from the Beer Pong All-Stars shop.

Overtime – Rules of Beer Pong #20

20. Overtime

In a nutshell: when redemption succeeds, both teams set up three cups in a triangle. Sudden death: the first team to clear its three wins.

It’s crunch time. If you have a clutch mode, turn it on. Overtime is three cups, sudden death, and nobody remembers who was up 6–1.

Overtime

Sudden Death

How overtime works

  1. It starts after a successful redemption.
  2. Three cups per side, set in a triangle.
  3. The team that cleared its cups first shoots first.
  4. No re-racks. The triangle stays as is.
  5. First to make all three wins.

Winning without the other team shooting

Get balls back on your first turn and make the last cup, and the other team never gets a shot in overtime.

FAQ

Is there redemption in overtime?
No. It’s sudden death.

Can you call island in overtime?
No. Three cups in a triangle can never leave an island.

Keep the arguments off the table. Post your overtime rules before the clutch moments: house rules signs from the Beer Pong All-Stars shop.

Redemption / Rebuttal – Rules of Beer Pong #19

19. Redemption / Rebuttal

In a nutshell: after the last cup falls, the losing team gets one last chance: make every remaining cup and the game goes to overtime.

It’s not over until it’s over. The losing team always gets one last shot at glory, and a hot redemption run is the loudest moment of any party.

Beer Pong Redemption

When you make redemption

How redemption works

  1. The last cup is made. The losing team gets its rebuttal.
  2. Each player shoots until they miss. Make, shoot again; miss, you’re done.
  3. No re-racks. The cups stay where they are.
  4. Clear every cup to survive. If cups remain after both players miss, the game is over.
  5. Clear them all and go to overtime. See the overtime rule.

Special cases

  • You can’t win with ring of fire during redemption.
  • You can win with a death cup during redemption.
  • If you still have your island call, you can use it during redemption.
  • The winning team can deny redemption with balls back: make the last cups, get the balls back, and make one more.

FAQ

What are the last cup rules in beer pong?
Sink the last cup and the other team gets redemption. Before that, the last cup can always be pulled back and centered without using a re-rack, knocking over your own last cup loses the game, and island can never be called on it. All of it in one place on our quick rulings page.

Is rebuttal the same as redemption?
Yes. Different houses, same rule.

Do you get redemption in overtime?
Not at most houses. Overtime is sudden death.

Keep the arguments off the table. Make sure everyone knows the game isn’t over until redemption: house rules signs from the Beer Pong All-Stars shop.
