ABSTRACT:
A table top game where attempts are made to propel a ball or other playing piece into a container or cup with the aid of a game board. A dual use game board has a generally square portion oppositely opposed to a generally rectangular portion. Present in the square and rectangular portions are two oppositely opposed tabs. Each of the tabs may fit into a container or cup, preferably a large soda pop cup. When the tab of the square portion is fitted into the cup, the cup may be stood upright so that the square portion forms a backboard. When the tab of the rectangular portion is fitted into the cup, the cup may be stably rested upon its side so that the rectangular portion forms a ramp. A first embodiment of a game piece has a flexible slat with a central spring, a post, and a bail. A ball or other projectile may be placed into the bail so that when the slat is flicked, the ball is propelled towards the upright cup with its backboard. A second embodiment of a game piece also has a flexible slat with a central spring. When a ball or other projectile is placed adjacent to one end, the slat may be flicked to swat the ball towards the side-laying cup with its ramp.
