When you host a pre-gaming function, your guests will expect the chance to play one to three games of Beer Pong, depending upon team performance and number of party attendees. What they will not expect is for you to treat them like a group of riff-raff street hooligans. And yet, you plan on using red Solo cups for the game. To a guest this says, “I simply cannot be bothered to wash twenty glasses tonight.” Or worse, “I cannot trust you not to stuff my crystal stemware in your hobo stick and make a run for it.” Be a gracious hostess and put the disposable cups away.
For added challenge, try champagne flutes!
