9. Champagne Pong

Elevate your pong game with champagne. Played by teams of two in which each team takes turn throwing a ping pong ball into the other team's cups. Once a ball lands in a cup, the cup is taken away and the opponent then drinks the contents of the cup. If both teammates hit cups, the balls are rolled back and they get to shoot again. No need to break out the good china, Amazon sells packaged sets!
