This is by far my favorite drinking game! I can understand the need for tryouts...you don't wanna have someone on your team who needs like 10 tries to get the cup flipped! You also don't wanna a girl on your team who doesn't chug the beer but instead drinks it nice and girlie like! You need the true, hardcore, flip-cup player!!!!! The same applies for the guys. Sometimes people just flat out suck at this game, even though you think they'd do better. Anyway, have a good time and good luck!
