A buddy of mine at work today informed me that he would be out of the office “for the next few months.” (This was all by way, of course, of filling me in on what I need to know to finish up all of his current projects…). It turns out that in his secret out-of-the-office life he is co-founder and co-ruler of bpong.com, a site that has established league play for the Beer Pong community. The time my co-worker is taking off is to prepare for the third annual World Series of Beer Pong, held January 1-5, 2008 in Las Vegas, in which 1000+ people will test their mettle against teams from around the country (globe?) for $50,000 in prizes. Dang. My college drinking time could have been spent drinking and training, not just drinking and… draining?
Bonus: the Flabongo.
