Our friend Hailey put together a 16-team costume flipcup tourney for that saturday. Each team had four players, two guys, two gals. They managed to get tables out on the actual beach for the festivities.
Some teams were more dressed up than others. Costumes ranged from penguins and old-korean women (Ajeemahs) to football players and that Zach Galifianakis from The Hangover Everyone came ready to get our flippin' on!
For our older readers, Flip Cup is a relay drinking game where 1) even teams line up on opposite sides of a table 2) each player has a plastic cup filled about 1/3 with brew 3) you start at one end, where the opposing players cheers, drink, and then flip. 4) the object is to drink fast, and the flip your cup from right-side-up to top-down on the table 5) as soon as the cup successfully lands on its top, the next player then drinks and flips and so on
Our team, Team Flipadelphia, was made of Amy, Maddie, Matt, and myself. We were kinda slackers in the costume department, but our feathered MardiGras masks did unify our team enough for some gnarly victories.
The tournament was set up in a rather official manner, with two round-robin stages. Our team actually lost our first match, but won the next two and proceeded to Stage 2. We were beaten rather soundly in the second round, but the sun was going down, and we needed to recoop for a few hours before the Halloween night festivities in Kyungsung.
After some much needed Korean BBQ and a nap..hehe....we got out to Kyungsung for a Halloween pub crawl. The crawl was between four bars in Kyungsung, where you got a free drink with your ticket. The costumes and dancing was riotous.
I've never seen the streets that packed here. The details get a little blurry, but one of my favorite parts of the night was at the end, where we got some late-night McDonald's...which used to be a rather disgusting habit of mine, but is now a nice change from our much healthier weekly diet.
