Rare beer pong incident leaves players stunned with disbelief

It was a move so unlikely that it’s captured the attention of Internet users worldwide and it’s all thanks in part to one young man’s surefire confidence in his ability to play beer pong.

Beer pong is a game typically played by college students. Players in teams of two attempt to toss a ping-pong ball into the other team’s cups, which are typically filled with beer and lined up on opposite ends of a table in a special formation. If participants manage to sink a ball into a cup, that cup is removed, but not before the opponent drinks the contents inside.

In an Instagram video that’s currently circlulating the web, a confident beer pong player in a salmon-coloured shirt stands over a ping-pong table, which has about 10 cups lined up in front of him. He appears to be in a messy dorm room with several other people.

As the ball bounces toward his cups, he swats it away with his hand with sheer confidence. What he doesn’t realize is that the ball he has swatted over his shoulder had bounced off the closet behind him and into a cup in front of him.

When he realizes what has happened, he shouts in horror, bringing his hands to his face, which is filled with disbelief. His friends around him explode with gleeful excitement after realizing they’ve witnessed a truly unlucky event.

It’s unclear who won the game, but it’s safe to say this beer-pong player lost on a much grander scale.
