The World Series of Flip Cup: Really, now?

No, this is not a joke.  Just as beer pong has expanded out of the realm of ‘college drinking game’, the game of flip cup is looking to become more widely accepted as a real sport.  Or, at least, enough of a sport to warrant its own major league.  But that’s not enough.  Flip cup formed its own prestigious championship tournament - the World Series of Flip Cup.

This year’s tournament will take place on May 30 in Baltimore, MD.  Here’s a blurb about last year’s extravaganza:

Last year 44 teams tried to take down the defending champion “2 Finger Fanatics.” Nobody could do it! Since then they have taken another major victory at the Flip Cup Guy’s World’s Largest Tournament, and they will be back this year to defend the title again. Does your team have what it takes?

You can head over to the World Series of Flip Cup site to check out the locations and times of the regional qualifying tournaments.  Or you can probably read about them in the latest issue of Obscure Sports Quarterly and catch the action on ESPN 8: The Ocho.
