Each competitor has one cup filled with beer, which they
bring to the table when it is their turn to come out.
Start
of the Match:

Whoever drew numbers 1 and 2 begin the match, each with
possession of one ball. They shall put their cups on opposing

During
Gameplay:
1.)
Players are to only shoot by bouncing the ball. No throwing.
2.)
This match is a free-for-all format. A player may shoot
as soon as he has possession of a ball.
3.)
No player may take possession of a shot ball until it bounces
TWICE. However, if the ball is clearly not going into anyone’s
cup, the ball may be grabbed after the first bounce.
4.)
When a player’s cup gets sunk twice, he is eliminated
from the match. There are no redemption shots.
5.)
If a player is in possession of any balls when eliminated,
they are to be turned over to whoever eliminated him.
6.)
When a player’s cup is hit for the first time, he
is to take a large gulp of beer. When hit for the second
time and eliminated, he is to finish the contents of his
cup.
7.)
A new competitor joins the match at every 2 minute interval
(you can change the length of the interval if you like).
The order in which new competitors enter the match is determined
by the numbers drawn before the match (e.g. #3 comes in
after #2, #4 comes in after #3, followed by #5, etc.).
8.)
When numbers 3 and 4 enter the match, they shall bring an
extra ball with them. From that point on, there will be
4 balls in play at all times.
9.)
A player is automatically eliminated if an opponent’s
shot manages to knock his cup over.
10.)
If a player drops a ball into his own cup, whether accidentally
or intentionally, it counts as one sink against him.
11.)
If a player knocks over his own cup, whether accidentally
or intentionally, he is automatically eliminated from the
match.
Winning
the Match:
1.)
The last remaining competitor is the winner of the royal
rumble.
