Tippy Cup

The beer pong thread sparked this question.

I am from Wisconsin where Tippy Cup is played pretty often. But over the weekend I ran into some guys from Texas who had never heard of it before. Is it really just a wisconsin thing?
 
I guess there are a couple other names for it too...

Heres how it goes:

Flip cup, also known as Canoe, is a team-based drinking game. Effectively a drinking relay race, it is similar to the drinking game boat race.

The two teams stand on both sides of a table, facing one another (the

person in front of a player is his/her opponent). In front of each

teammate is a cup filled with an arbitrary amount of any kind of liquid

(often beer).

A player and his opponent both have the same amount of liquid. At the

start of the race, the first member of each team drinks his or her

beverage. When finished, the cup is placed "mouth up" at the edge of

the table, and the person who drank it tries to flip

it upside down, "mouth down", on the table. If he or she is not

successful on the first try, the cup must be reset and re-flipped. Only

after the first teammate is done flipping the cup successfully, can the

next person proceed. Whichever team finishes drinking and flipping all

its cups first is the winner.

 
explain what it is because im from mass never heard of it but we could call it something different here
 
yeah, it's played pretty often in my town which is in Michigan. Chandelier which is kind of a flippie knock off game is played more tho
 
its flippy cup not tippy cup and yea we play all the time as a in-between beer pong for the girls recently started playing chandellier and it is by far may favorite right now...
 
yea, it's definitely flip cup. tippy cup sounds like something infants drink out of, not to mention that people sound stupid when they ask about tippy cup. HOWEVER, one of my friends from central minnesota called it tippy cup - but we all gave him shit for it. just to let you know you're not the only incorrect one out there.

and minnesota is the land of 10,000 retards, so it doesn't count
 
1.go to spencers,

2. buy the 20$ strobe light. take it to said party.

3. when everyone is nice and saucy, start the game of flip cup. (or tippy cup, but i feel as though my mouth should be rinsed out with soap if i ever uttered such an awful phrase).

4. have a DH, or Designated Holder. usually one of the saucier girls to hold it over the table.

5. start a slow clap, while blasting Cascada's "Every time we touch"

6. Begin game, play a series, whatever. watch people lose their minds.

....you'll never play another version of this game ever. Strobe Light Flip Cup ladies and gents.
