I had no idea that beer pong or Beirut was such a big deal to so many people. I thought it was something you do in college and eventually grow out of. I was wrong. Brian Foley, of The College Baseball Blog, passed along this World Series of Beer Pong press release. I was interested from the start.
Sign ups begin this week for the third annual World Series of Beer Pong (WSOBP), a three-day competitive beer pong extravaganza with a $50,000 Grand Prize—the largest prize in the history of beer pong. This year’s event will be held January 1 - 5, 2008 at the South Point Hotel, Casino & Spa in Las Vegas, Nevada.
$50k to drink beer and bounce balls in cups.. In Vegas. I might need to put together my own team… Email me if you’re down.. If you thought beer pong was just about getting drunk, you’re right, but you’re wrong. WSOBP co-founder Billy Gaines:
“What we’re trying to do with this event is diminish the potential negative aspects of beer pong so we can focus on the positive characteristics of the game: the competition, the socialization, and having a good time. Besides, the growing popularity of beer pong necessitated a national event, which, as fanatical beer pong players ourselves, we are happy to provide.”
And we wanna get drunk… If you think your squad’s got the skills to win it all, sign up at www.bpong.com by December 3rd. Until then you can practice on the Wii.
