Hakosot (“The Cups”) is an Israeli game similar to the cups routine made famous by the movie Pitch Perfect. It’s played at several Midwestern cons and some Worldcons, typically at 1 a.m. and 1 p.m. Sunday in the consuite. The players sit around a table and chant in Hebrew while passing paper cups hand to hand in a complex pattern. Chicago fan Moshe Yudkowsky introduced it to fandom in the late 1980s; some vigorous sessions (or weak furnishings) have given hakosot its other name: “Moshe’s Famous Table-Busting Game.”
