- tzortst, on 12/11/2007, -14/+75Weird, in Australia we just drink our beer, but I guess that makes sense as to why american beer tastes like *****...
- bionole, on 12/11/2007, -3/+62:(
- inactive, on 12/11/2007, -2/+37OH ***** WITH THE TURNAROUND!
//joke reversal owned. - inactive, on 12/11/2007, -0/+26I miss playing that game, ***** getting old! I'm getting a table this weekend.
- stev31h, on 12/11/2007, -0/+23Dugg for the intellectual description.
"A comphrehensive look at the art of..."
at the art of getting ***** up. - dsully215, on 12/11/2007, -2/+22Combine the 8-person table with the fire table and the LCD table and I'll be impressed
- opticsnake, on 12/11/2007, -0/+20The best IMO is the table in the pool.
No need for piss breaks. - inactive, on 12/11/2007, -1/+20http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beerpong
- givinupthefight, on 12/11/2007, -1/+20The only one that I don't get being on the list is the surfboard. Thats not a nice piece that someone took time to create like the rest. Thats desperation. Me and my friends threw a spare door from my buddy's garage on a couple wooden horses and used that once, but I wouldn't expect to see that on this list either.
- tzortst, on 12/11/2007, -8/+23WTF is beer pong?
I'm Australian... - jaymulder, on 12/11/2007, -1/+15I went to University for Engineering and all I got was this table.
- Bawk, on 12/11/2007, -0/+14Right before it turned into 4chan.
- padrebuf, on 12/11/2007, -1/+15aluminum table is unique.
- ohhoe, on 12/11/2007, -1/+14American beers you guys get imported tastes like *****.
Microbrew stuff here is amaaazinggg. - ahoyhoy, on 12/11/2007, -2/+14Go to almost any college campus nowadays and look for a beer-pong game. More than likely your find the game being played without paddles and with the triangle formation of cups.
- coltrane68, on 12/11/2007, -7/+18I have to agree:
Beer pong is a form of ping pong in which there are one or two cups of beer per side (depending on whether the game is singles or doubles), and the goal is to use the paddle to hit the ball into the cup (or force the opponent to spill his own cup).
Beirut is a game in which there are a large number of partially filled cups and the goal is to throw the ball into the opponent's cups until no more cups remain. - Ventolin, on 12/11/2007, -0/+11This one is way better than the beer pong article we had last month!
- ripstuntz, on 12/11/2007, -1/+11MmMmMmmm.. nothing like the gritty taste of sand in your beer!
- Hamsterpotpies, on 12/11/2007, -0/+10This will be on Diggnation.
- inactive, on 12/11/2007, -1/+11It's like Football and Soccer, who gives a *****.
- Niceguy4186, on 12/11/2007, -1/+11The point was is you are sounding like an american who refuses to call soccer soccer. Orginally soccer was called football, but times have changed and the name "football" has gone to a different, more popular event. Same with beerpong/beirut. Maybe once in my 4 years of college did I see someone playing with paddels. But I have played hundreds of games of "beirut" and called it beer pong every single time. Every place I go, they call it beer pong. When the vast majorty people have a common name for something, that name sticks.
- Niceguy4186, on 12/11/2007, -4/+13Must be a regional thing. (aka pop vs soda debate), but I have always heard it as beer pong, everybody I know calls it beer pong. Every year there would be one doughbag at some random party preaching that it is really called Beirut. Get over it.
- revjustin2, on 12/11/2007, -1/+10Somebody didn't get to go to college, did they?
- Eupatorus, on 12/11/2007, -0/+8I believe its called "The shocker!" There is no 2 in the pink,1 in the stink gang. At least I hope not.
- BrassMan, on 12/11/2007, -0/+8You're right, but that's not the case on every campus. I went to school in Massachusetts and both versions were played, and the throwing version was called Beirut. Basically playing with paddles is more challenging and arguably more fun, but many girls are terrible at it so we would often default to Beirut.
- Boshow, on 12/11/2007, -1/+8you only played 104 games in a year? that's pretty weak
- hasiangurl, on 12/11/2007, -0/+7when I was in college we called beirut beer pong. No one actually played the real version of beer pong so it didn't get confusing.
- Niceguy4186, on 12/11/2007, -0/+7agreed, I was also wondering why the surboard made it on there.
And just a side note, the cheap wooden closet doors in the dorms... they have no bounce :( - NCSUspoon, on 12/11/2007, -0/+6My friends built one with glowing Red LED lights underneath it that spell out the logo for NCSU. Then the LED lights trail to make the triangles on either side.
But how long would that 100+ cup game take to play. It would be one game that party, and into the next day for that matter. - skyshock1, on 12/11/2007, -0/+6+1 De Facto Standard. We still call Native Americans "Indians", and still mis-pronounce names of cities but the idea is that everyone understands what you're talking about even if it's technically wrong.
- feshmania, on 12/11/2007, -0/+5we play a game called Whole Pong. There's 4 teams of three people each, 100 cups per team. The reason it's called Whole Pong is because each team finishes a whole case of beer (30 pack). You have 6 "money cups" (full cups) on the table anywhere you want to put them. Its rapid 4-ball, rapid fire pong, really. There's no bouncing and there are some crazy redemption rules on last cup. It usually takes around 2 to 2 1/2 hours to complete a full game. And, needless to say, you feel real good after you get out.
- Hattrix22, on 12/11/2007, -3/+8It was called Beirut, because, back when the game first became popular, the United States had just bombed Beirut.....just like you drop a bomb (the ping-pong ball) into the city of cups. I'm guessing that you are trying to prove that people that call it Beirut are North Americans and therefore football and soccer are two different sports.......Next you'll probably rant on about the insensitive calling of the game Beirut because you (or someone you know) had family that died during the Beirut bombings ect. Then you'll go on about how the evil American war machine and the people ..... blah blah blah.
It's called beer pong when you have ping-pong paddles and 4 cups on the table. It's call Beirut when you have a trianglular set up of cups that you try to bounce/throw the ping pong ball into. Deal with it. - KenSPT, on 12/11/2007, -1/+6Maybe my friends and I were simply lazy college students, but we never wanted to put any effort into our drinking games. Give us some sort of rectangular surface and that's what we'd play on ...
- DyDx, on 12/11/2007, -3/+8Don't be a douchebag. Insisting that it be called "beirut" makes you a douchebag.
- Mikey9oo, on 12/12/2007, -0/+5Well, actually, I went to UCSB (the biggest party school in California) and everyone called it beer pong. I now go to USC, and everyone calls it beer pong. I have gotten in arguments about this. It can be called beer pong or beirut. In california, it is more commonly called beer pong. Nobody even plays the paddle "beer pong," because it is so ***** lame. If you call it Beirut, or insist on calling it that, you are considered a douche. It is a regional thing. Further, the World Series of Beer Pong, where there is actually $25,000 offered to the winners calls it beer pong. So, STFU.
- ChrisWalkr, on 12/11/2007, -1/+6Well played good sir.
- Shorties, on 12/12/2007, -0/+5That was a ***** thing to do...
- kosmoX, on 12/11/2007, -0/+4That is actually my neighbor's beer pong table. They own a company that makes truck racks here in NC, which is why it looks so much like a truck rack.
- hadak, on 12/11/2007, -3/+7A good friend of mine won some cash off collegehumor with his beerpong table. I think it beats these, hands down.
http://millenniumpong.com/ - joechristenson, on 12/11/2007, -0/+4I've only heard it called Beirut by people from Massachusetts. Maybe it's a New England thing?
- gn0stik, on 12/12/2007, -0/+4Yeah, no edit feature. I saw that too late. if I could kick myself in the face, I would. The gods of stupidity require penance. Stupid penance.
- pbuschma, on 12/11/2007, -0/+4and i was wrong
- Niceguy4186, on 12/11/2007, -3/+7For all the people that keep saying it's beiruit... what sport is football?
- CrackyJSquirrel, on 12/11/2007, -1/+5But that doesn't make it beer pong. They are not playing beer pong, they are playing Beirut.. Which in my opinion, is superior to beer pong, you get bombed quicker.
- posure, on 12/11/2007, -0/+3Not where I live!
- inactive, on 12/11/2007, -1/+4Everyone in Jersey calls Behruit, Beer Pong. It's just known that way. I call it Behruit but everyone is just like what the *****?
- Mikey9oo, on 12/12/2007, -0/+3The game CAN be called Beirut. It is also, more widely, called beer pong. You are a douchebag. The ***** contest is called the WSOBP. I actually got in this argument before and the bet was the loser got punched in the face. Needless to say, I got to punch someone in the face.
