LATE NIGHT WITH JIMMY FALLON
The Definitive Beer Pong Rules, By January Jones
Last month, a GQ profile painted January Jones as the anti-Betty Draper: an All-American girl who noshes on T.G.I. Friday’s queso dip, slams six beers and then shares a little too much during transcontinental flights. And last night, the lovely Mad Men actress further cemented her heartland fan base by deriding Jimmy Fallon’s Late Night version of beer pong, telling us just how she parties.
From Jones’ criticisms during her interactive Late Night segment, we culled a few important guidelines that any fan should know before inviting the Mad Men vixen to your Sigma mixer.
1. The ball must be bounced before landing in a beer cup. (“If you throw a ball in a cup, that’s not beer pong.”)
2. Two players per team. (“There’s a setter and a server and it’s actually a game.”)
3. Fill your cups up to the very top with beer (preferably Bud Light), otherwise Jones will ridicule you.
4. No pity second throws (“That’s not how I play.”)
5. Do not reveal that Ivanka Trump has beaten you. Jones will not be impressed…even if she ends up losing.

Other interesting fact about Jones: Her favorite films are the Lord of the Rings Trilogy, her idea of a great night out is actually a night i watching DVD's of the Family Guy and getting Taco Bell delivery, and she hosts a weekly clothing-optional LAN party in her Beverly Hills home and is always looking for extra players.

6. Always hit on the drunk broad who's named after the month in which she was conceived.

Actually, she's named after a character from a Jacqueline Susann novel, but you have to really have to read the GQ article to fully appreciate it...

You know, this should be endearing...but beer pong? Really?
