The Can-to-Beat Contest

1st Place 2003
Can2BeatTM is the easiest competitive format to follow. All attention focuses on a single player qualified "Standard Trophy" (can). The best of the set... the top scoring trophy... this is literally; "The Can To Beat".
Run the Can2BeatTM contest concurrent, along side other events.

How to Play:

  1. After a few rounds of casual can crushing, move a legally qualified trophy strike to the winners line as the "Can-to-Beat".

  2. Legal strike trophies enter the contest and challenge the current can to beat. Trophies advance in competition by out performing the top standing Can2Beat entry.

  3. Register each advancing trophy and then display it to the winning side of the former Can2Beat entry.

  4. All Can2Beat entries stay on the winners line until the game concludes.

  5. Offer a "Last Call" to challengers.

  6. Scoring method Las Vegas Lineup.
