Red Solo cups are too expensive to play pong with. Pong, (at least played properly, none of this ball tossing nonsense), is very cup-intensive. Some of the more interesting variations require upwards of 100 cups to lay out. And you don't tend to reuse cups, unless you are really desperate.

Costco is your friend. Also, you can put Solo cups in the dishwasher to extend their use a few times.
