This is one of the dumbest things I've heard of in recent memory.

Quote :

"Could this mark the beginning of the end of beer pong? The game does have plenty more critics outside the walls of academia. The town of Belmar, N.J., for example, outlawed outdoor beer pong in 2005 after the city council passed an ordinance declaring that it exposed unconsenting neighbors to "foul language, rowdy and disorderly behavior and to examples of the consumption of alcohol under circumstances that are detrimental." Since 2005, other Jersey shore towns, such as Manasquan and Sea Girt, along with municipalities in other states followed suit; some have even prohibited drinking games indoors."

My aunt and uncle live in Sea Girt and they love the outdoor ban. I personally think its retarded but didn't voice those thoughts to them. People will make a drinking game out of whatever they find, you can't ban certain things.

FYI my friend bought that game for the Wii and I think its retarded. I also think it'll screw up one's natural stroke for real beer pong.

beer pong lost its novelty a while ago.

7/31/2008 2:24:07 PM

you know its a slow news day when shit like this makes yahoo

7/31/2008 2:24:24 PM

I would have bought it for Wii if I could play online.

7/31/2008 2:24:47 PM

geez so we can't smoke inside, and we cant drink outside. drinking has also just become serious business only.

well, obviously, you can do whatever you want if you have a huge yard or live out in the woods or whatever

but if you have neighbors within earshot, they can pretty much ban anything involving noise or exposing neighbors to "indecency"

i'm not sure how i feel about it, loud drunks annoy me, i have some kinda behind my place. but i'd never call the cops on them. hmm

ban H20.

7/31/2008 2:26:29 PM

ha, i learned about that in high school. inmates and etc can drink something like 3-4 gallons of water and catch some sort of dangerous buzz. i'm not sure on the specific amount

7/31/2008 2:27:35 PM

Flipcup 4 lyfe

7/31/2008 2:27:35 PM

is this some sort of drinking game?

7/31/2008 2:28:00 PM

why can't people just hang out and drink beers?

if you have to play a game though, flipcup is alright.

7/31/2008 2:28:48 PM

who does beer pong outside? you could lose the ball way too easily

7/31/2008 2:29:25 PM

People play outside b/c a lot of the houses at the NJ Shore don't have AC and most have nice tidy manicured lawns. Its usually in the 70s early evening and at night so people play outside.

Personally I hate playing outside. My record outside is horrible. I blame the wind.

7/31/2008 2:32:58 PM

I'm in New Jerzies

Takin ur freedoms

7/31/2008 2:34:27 PM

beer pong is nasty anyways

7/31/2008 2:36:41 PM

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....wut?????????

7/31/2008 2:38:01 PM

we dont need beer pong and flip cup and other drinking games to get fucked up... its just a more social and entertaining way to do so

7/31/2008 2:39:27 PM

flip cup is my shit

7/31/2008 2:39:56 PM

^^^maybe he's talking about playing it out at a bar. I can't tell you how many times I've played it out in a bar somewhere in Manhattan, only to catch a cold sometime in the following week. Damn dirty floors!

[Edited on July 31, 2008 at 2:47 PM. Reason : ^]

7/31/2008 2:47:12 PM

7/31/2008 3:03:35 PM

^yeah you buy it online. Its only $8 but doesn't have a lot to it. No online play.

7/31/2008 3:07:27 PM

yeah i was talking about at a bar

in delaware most places with porches out back have beer pong tables set up

i mean if you think it's gross to watch the ball roll across some dude's carpet

imagine an outdoor grotto of filth, where the only times the floors are hosed off is if it rains or someone pukes

7/31/2008 3:08:38 PM

^this guy is a trip

7/31/2008 3:09:21 PM

I've never played beer pong at a bar

dorm rooms are pretty bad too

About a 60 percent chance that any ball the goes on the floor comes back with a pube attached

7/31/2008 3:10:54 PM

wii is about to be banned in the states

7/31/2008 3:10:58 PM

I play a game called "Drink the Beer"

7/31/2008 3:12:42 PM

^ha ha ha ha ah ah ah

7/31/2008 3:13:40 PM

playing at pbs def scares me - the ball gets lost and you gotta push through the crowd looking like an idiot searching for the ball

there's no telling whats on it when you get it back either

surprised i don't have an std yet

7/31/2008 3:23:38 PM

flip cup is for girls who want to drink a small amount of beers and flip a cup

7/31/2008 3:28:36 PM

every time i play i refresh cups and water cup

7/31/2008 3:29:35 PM

i've played that "drink the beer" game... i'm pretty fucking good at it.

7/31/2008 3:33:22 PM

WE PLAY THE AWESOME KIND OF BEER PONG NOT JUST THROWING SHIT IN A CUP OK

7/31/2008 3:35:12 PM

^i have the table balls and paddles if you got the cups

I know right. Imagine a bar in Greenwich village Manhattan, playing beer bong at 3am after the place has had foot traffic since 12pm that day. All those feet, from the subway where homeless ppl pee all over the place, rats run rampant...

If you ask me its all about helping to beef up the immune system!

7/31/2008 3:44:49 PM

wait, you play that too? holy shit, who are you?

7/31/2008 3:45:05 PM

just put water in the beerpong cups and drink out of the can/bottle when the cup is made. Solves the problem of having nasty balls

7/31/2008 3:47:56 PM

i am sancho.

but for real nobody around here knows what the real game is like

[Edited on July 31, 2008 at 3:51 PM. Reason : i have not played in a while]

7/31/2008 3:48:20 PM

^^I do that too sometimes. I don't drink out of the can/bottle though. Instead I make it more measureable. I have a spare cup on hand and always keep it filled to the proper height. Try that at a bar though and you'll get laughed out of the place.

7/31/2008 3:50:27 PM

ahahhah hhhhhaa ahaha what a pussy......ive got herpis and you dont hahahahhahahhaha

7/31/2008 3:52:20 PM

i liked playing beer pong at mr scrumples old house, that way is 1000 times more fun, and actually requires some skill

not saying i have it, i don't think i ever got a mark on the board, but still

and mono, herpes, other peoples penis/vagina juices etc etc etc (i mean, depending on where you're playing). not that i really ever worry about those things after the first couple of beers!!

7/31/2008 5:48:49 PM
