I graduated in '03. Interesting, but not all that shocking. I would not be that surprised if there was variance in a given year.

"Beirut" did make a little more sense when we lost all the ping pong balls and had to play with pennies. The copper (and zinc?) flavored beer also provided some extra incentive to win.

Also, I have no recollection of "wash cups" being used at any time.

All the things we do to make drinking fun. I hope I never play with pennies, that just sounds gross (although I have been know to do disgusting things while intoxicated).

It's good to see a fellow Gaucho on News.YC.

Another gaucho here, class of '02. With my group, we would just drink the beer as we got it, no games or anything.
