When J.K. Rowling sent Harry Potter to Hogwarts to get a good education and the experience of a lifetime, she probably didn't expect binge drinking to result from it.
But it's happened—unofficially, anyway.
Muggles have taken beer pong, which is like basketball but with Solo cups, ping pong balls and beer, and added elements of the magical game of quidditch to it.
Unofficial Quidditch Pong features three quidditch rings, two bats, a snitch cup and a snitch.

While the set is sold out, the rules are available online.
The three rings are set in the middle of the table (between each side's 10-cup pyramid), with the snitch cup placed farther away, "at a distance that is difficult but not impossible to make," according to the rules.
The beater may block the the balls with the bat, and the seeker can win the game in one try by successfully making a shot into the snitch cup.
Each team of three can be one of four Hogwarts houses and can use the spells assigned to each house during the game.
