Flip Cup fans, rejoice!

 

I don't know who Justin Caplicki is, but I do know he's my hero.

Anyone who devotes a website and a tournament to Flip Cup is clearly a motivated individual. But on top of that, his pithy FAQ and snarky rules made me want to high five him, hand over $40, and "get in the game," to quote Dr.Phil. If I must. Which I shouldn't have. But I did. And now I'm embarassed.

If there is a sport born of frat culture, it is Flip Cup. Men hooting in a chorus of peer pressure, cheap alcohol consumed in spine-quivering amounts. I can't say I've played, or that I've ever consumed that much beer, but I do support organized athletics and human bonding.

Peep some Flip Cup below, then hit Justin's site and appreciate the wonders of well-worded Flip Cup description. It might just have you digging up $40 bucks for Saturday.
