Beer Pong


iconTwo journalists sent to watch a college game of 'beer pong' were fired for drinking. They were supposed to be there reporting on the evils of drinking, and got busted partaking in some of the fun.

But talking about beer pong takes me down memory lane. I used to go to UVA to visit with friends and celebrate Midwinter's every year. Beer pong was a staple drinking game and one of my favorites. Cups are lined up at each end of the ping pong table, and you have to toss your ping pong balls into your opponent's cups. When you get one in, they have to guzzle the beer. I didn't get to throw many ping pong balls because my aim sucks. But UVA guys are notoriously sloppy drinkers, so they left it up to the Hokie (me) to guzzle the beers. The other team usually didn't stand a chance. If I remember any more of the story, maybe I'll write another DSoD

Steve,

First, the game you are referring to is called "Beirut" (among other things). "Beer pong" is actually played with a table and paddles. (I am almost thirty, and I still play regularly.)

Second, if you had to travel to UVA to find a game of beer pong, you must have really had lame friends at Tech. ;-)

Not lame. Poor. We couldn't afford a ping pong table.

I think the whole PC thing about booze is way overblown. I do abhore those that drink and drive, the end result is usually an innocent death But as far as drinking goes, your body, your right.
