    How would you guys handle that?
     
    The reason I ask here and no in "Questions" is because I am curious to the rule variations that come up surrounding this one off shot.

  • Like many have said before... its all luck. If you can prove to the people that you can do it over and over again, then there might be a 1 in a million shot of making that a rule.

  • So, it doesn't count then? The guy in the green was the shooter and I said "no cups" and the house split down the middle.

    I've had the unfortunate pleasure of this happening in a huge spot in a tourney once. The shot is counted as a MISS if you're playing with any kind of "official" rules. In house parties, however, I've seen this count as 3 cups (one cup for each that the ball is touching)

  • Well it didn't make it IN a cup so why would it count?

    Yeah it pretty much depends on if this happens at a regular tournament or at a house party type event.  In mostly any tournament you go to this will just count as a missed shot.
     
    At someone's house or a party of some type (assuming it is part of their rules) I have seen it go by 2 different rules.  The more common of the 2 would be that this counts for 3 cups (one for each cup the ball touches like Barry said).  Other times I have seen it mean the game is over.
     
    Obviously I wouldn't want there to be this rule at a tournament, but I have no problem with it being a part of someone's house rules.  It happens so rarely that it will not be too much of an issue.  I realize it is all luck, but hey it gives people a reason to get excited during a game and moves it along during a party.  "House rules," to be honest, can be a nice break from tournament style play at times.

  • This actually happened to us day 3 against the Blondies Vegas team.
    We were all sort of in shock and just kinda looked at it for about 5
    seconds and then I snatched that ball up so quick because I
    thought just our luck some freak gust of wind would blow it
    right into a cup. Anyhow, to answer your question like
    everbody else has already, no it would not count as hit cups.
    At least not at the WSOBP.
