My sister gets the hiccups all the time and has since we were kids. The only thing that ever worked for her was this: Get a glass of water, place a paper towel over the top of the glass, then drink the water through the paper towel. Don't chug it or anything, just drink normally, as normally as you can throught a papertowel. I'm not sure why this works for my sister, or if it will for you, but hey, it's worth a try.

Get someone to give you a really long french kiss. It will change the rhythm of your diaphragm and usually gets rid of the hic-ups.

Suck on a piece of hard candy like a Life Saver, Creme Saver, Peppermint, Butterscotch, etc. The sugar in it will help relax the diaphram & release the trapped air underneath. My father told me this & I chalked it up to parental know-it-all information. I tried it with a painful case of hiccups & it worked. I know keep hard candy around for future hiccups. Holding your breath won't work. Drinking water while someone else plugs your ears won't work. Having someone scare you won't work. Those are just old wives' tales.
