As this time is mean to get rid you of all the worries and stress you have accumulated over a period of time, it is only understandable that this is your chance to act stupid without crossing any laws or regulations. Picture nights of flirting with girls in the bar, throwing up in the midst of a house party due to drunkenness and those moments when your shy self is left to take on every consequence presented to while getting drunk.

But there are times that rules can go another way, a road that adds more fun or excitement to whatever you are doing. Kings Cup rules is one of those things and I am sure that you will agree with me on this. The rules of this drinking game are really what makes it more an addicting game to be played.
