I watched the video on their website. No thanks. Looks like an episode of Jersey Shore.

I played beer pong (though as a purist, we Lehigh alums call it beirut, and play it quite differently) for money once. I won't be making that mistake again. Like most competitive things, once you put money at stake, people start becoming douches about it. Then you add alcohol to the mix. It isn't fun when you have people acting like roid'ed asshats and arguing for every microscopic thing that could give them the smallest advantage.

We have the rules of the game posted right above where the beer pong table is so there is no confusion on the matter. We also have a person who's line judge ( usally the DD ) who makes all calls if there is a debate. There also no betting with cash, instead we use shots.

Isner and Mahut forever... for the greatest coolness of nerve and self discipline sustained in the history of sport.
