I don’t play beer pong but I have no problem keeping you informed with the latest beer pong news. I’ve already posted about beer pong on the Wii, a 50k bp tournament, and the first black beer pong player. That’s the positive side of the game, but now I have to issue a warning. Do play beer pong with sharp objects nearby. Why? From Orlando’s Local6.com:

A 27-year-old man is accused of stabbing three people during a drinking game called “beer pong” at a Fernandina Beach home.

“They got into an argument over, possibly, some money,” Fernandina Beach Police Capt. David Bishop said. “There was alcohol involved — possibly drugs. These people were asked to leave. They didn’t leave, got into a fight, and then somebody pulled a knife.”

That somebody was Daniel White and he’s been charged with three counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. He’s clearly not helping beer pong’s cause.. It might have been a 5 a.m., money and drug fueled knife fight but nobody’s gonna remember it that way. It’ll be “hey, you hear about that guy that stabbed 3 people over beer pong”. Incidents like this are why the STL Beer Pong headquarters have a no stabbing rule on the front page.

Add former NBA player Vin Baker to the long list of ex-jocks suffering financial problems. It seems impossible, a guy makes millions of dollars playing a sport, and then is broke a few years into retirement, but it happens all of the time. A New York bank recently foreclosed on a boat owned by Latrell Sprewell, and now a Connecticut bank is foreclosing on a restaurant owned by Vin Baker.

Baker’s restaurant closed recently and the bank that financed it claims it is owed close to $900,000 in unpaid loans. Also named in the suit are Baker’s parents, who apparently put $400,000 into the failed venture last spring.

Damn, even moms and pops took a loss.. I’m no doctor or anything, but Vin Baker owning a restaurant can’t be a good thing. I’m not saying an alcoholic couldn’t successfully run a business, but for a guy with the Vin’s problems, having the keys to a building full of liquor doesn’t sound like a good idea from the start.

Alcohol.. It’s like steroids for hecklers and there’s no better place for fans to juice up than right in the parking lot. A lot of food, plenty of drank, and a video camera are all that you need for a successful tailgate.

Jacksonville Jaguars fans like to kickoff the festivities with some beverages, a fire, and two chicks wrestling a dude.

 People drink in Philly? Which is more of a dead giveaway that this video is early in the season: one guy screaming that the Phils will dominate the NL East or the dude being excited about Brett Myers?
