Beer pong pays
For 21 year-old Russell Meyerowitz, beer pong is more than just a drinking game he plays at parties.
It’s a career.
Meyerowitz founded OnFIREbeerpong, Inc. in July 2007 to service a demographic in need - beer pong players in need of portable beer pong tables. This past July, his company was acquired by College Tonight Inc. and he became head of College Tonight’s online retail division.
Meyerowitz juggles this duty while also attending Cal Poly, where he’s studying business. Not bad!
The most incredible beer pong table EVER
Forget those fancy tables I showed you with the embedded TVs; how about a beer pong table that pulses to music and has automatic ball washers?
I’ve always loved CrunchGear ever since they let me write some posts for them last summer, and now I love them even more. Kudos to Peter Ha for tracking this sucker down.
33 of the most awesome beer pong tables I’ve ever seen
Our friends over at Pong A Long posted a pretty cool rundown of The 33 Best Beer Pong Tables Ever Created. Among them are some serious works of art and ingenuity. Head down to #23 and you’ll see a table you’d swear was a basketball court if the camera was zoomed in any further. There’s a pretty nice football field table down at #18, though I wish they had used any team but the New England Patriots. Finally, my personal favorite; #13. All I have to say is BUILT IN TV’s.
A lot of the other tables are uniquely designed, but some of the designs seem like they would take away from the game of beer pong more than anything. Thanks to Pong A Long for compiling this great list.
