So long, Bud Pong Turns out not everyone was playing by the rules with Bud Pong. Some people were playing the Ping Pong drinking game with beer instead of water, and now Anheuser-Busch has been forced to discontinue the national Bud Pong promotion. An A-B rep explains: “It has come to our attention that despite our explicit guidelines, there may have been instances where this promotion was not carried out in the manner it was intended.” Some people just ruin it for everyone. —Posted by Tim Nudd

It turns out that beer pong played without beer just sucks. You don't get laid, you don't enjoy yourself with a full belly of water, and you end up running to the toilet every 15 minutes.

I'm shocked, shocked to find college students drinking beer while playing a drinking game sponsored by a brewery.

An inside source tells me that Mr. Nudd is a championship beer pong player. Any truth to that?
