I learned the cup song years (like a decade) ago when I was 7 or 8 at summer camp, so Pitch Perfect getting a bunch of other people to learn how to do it is so groovy. It always brings back memories of camp.

When I saw the film I was so excited by the cup song theme because when I was in 6th grade the coolest thing to do was to play the cup game. There was no song that went with the cups but that exact motion was what we used. I only played it a few times but I love Pitch Perfect all the more for bringing up that memory from my childhood.

I learned it years and years ago at a summer camp, we would all sit in a circle and at the end of the sequence you pass your cup to the person on your right and start over with the cup from the person on your left. We used the saying "clap, clap, tap, tap, tap, clap, move it over, clap, pick it, up, and, put, it, down" with a motion going with each section. So much fun.

I love this cup game. We used to do this at camp, where we had eight or so girls round a circular table and the only difference is when you bring the cup down the final time, you actually bring it over the hand you slapped down in order to put it in fron the the person to your right. That way the cups get passed around the table and it looks and sounds awesome.

I learned the beat at camp when I was 12., except the whole thing was a game to entertain us while we waited for our dinner. It's the exact same beat, but when you set the cup down on the final beat, you actually pass it to the person to your left. Then you do it again with the cup that the person on your right just passed to you. The goal was to get the cups to make a full round around the table without anyone messing up the beat and thereby messing everyone else up. It was actually really fun!

Also, when you bring your hand down and then the cup (the last two moves), you can cross your arms, which makes it look even cooler. I think she does in pitch perfect, but it's more obvious in the lulu and the lampshades video because of the angle.

I learned this a few years back in high school. Before it was 'the cup song' though, it was a game that, I've heard from many people, was taught to them in elementary school called 'Bumblebee'. they learned it similar to what you did, with a song, but their song went like this: 'Clap, clap, Bumblebee. Clap, up down. Clap, side, turn, hit, change, clap down.' Just thought you'd like to know a bit of trivia about it :)

Lulu and the Lampshades covered "Cups (You're Gonna Miss Me)", as a rendition of a 1937 old-time song "Miss Me When I'm Gone" by J. E. Mainer's Mountaineers. They first put the cup beat to it in 2009 (or at least that is when the youtube video was uploaded). Anna Burden's version was released in 2011 but is what led to the viral status of the song.

I learned the cup game at church camp 3 years ago :) In the game, you play it with at least 6 people. You sit around a round table and the person directly across from you does it at the same time as you, and all the other paires are a beat off of your beat, and then at the end of the combo you slide the cup across the table to your partner :) and you do it faster every time. My rhym I came up with when I learned it was: Clap, clap, 123! Clap to the side! Pick it up, then put it down!

In school, kids would do this around a table. When you finish the second phrase you slide the cup over to the person to your right and take the cup from the person to your left. The game is that you have to keep in rhythm with everyone else as you get faster and faster.
