For any of you who want to look back on a Wasted Youth, you might as well waste your time on something productive. Like, oh I don’t know…honing your Beer Pong skills perhaps?
Mmmm...Beer Pong. If you love playing with balls a lot, then this game is perfect for you!
Whilst the exact origins of “Beer Pong” are somewhat sketchy and claimed by several various educational institutions, the basic rundown is that Beer Pong, also known as Beirut, is the game that involves ping pong balls being thrown into cups partially filled with beer (or water).
It does not use paddles like table tennis, and requires skill and coordination. The era of its origination has become somewhat a debated myth in it’s own right – some sources claim it started during the 1950’s and others say the 70’s – it seems to have gained popularity during frat parties of the early 80’s. The general gist is that it’s a drinking game.

Like with pool or snooker, it’s so much more fun when you’re good and you perfect a few tricks. Of course this generally requires dedication. Being drunk a lot, having too much time on your hands, and spending large chunks of your waking life perfecting your tricks. In short it’s cheap thrills for poor students.

If you have a habit of playing with balls (ahem) then perhaps this is something you might like to try. That said, there’s some footage out there which shows clearly how much time you can waste on learning new beer pong trick shots. You might not get your overdue paper in on time, but hey you finally pulled of that new party trick you have been trying to perfect for 3 weeks. Priceless.
