There are some obvious differences between giant beer pong and traditional/tabletop beer pong. The five main differences: 1. Giant beer pong is played the ground while traditional beer pong is played on a table, usually a folding table but you can actually purchase a beer pong table. 2. Giant beer pong uses Wiffle balls (or similarly sized balls) while traditional beer pong uses ping pong balls -- giving the game its name. 3. Giant beer pong uses six buckets on each side. Traditional beer pong has 10 cups on each side. 4. When you're playing traditional beer pong, you can ask for the cups to be re-racked when you have 6, 4, 3, or 2 cups. Re-racking is a real pain in the neck when you're using buckets, so re-racking isn't allowed in giant beer pong. 5. In giant beer pong, there's no bouncing, mostly because the ball won't bounce very well on grass and concrete. In traditional beer bong, you can bounce the ball on the table. As a bonus, if you bounce the ball and it goes in a cup, that cup is removed and so is an additional cup (unless there are only two cups left).
