The last part about getting a followup call reminded me of this gem: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beekay414 Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 So, in the past, I played beer pong (I know) competitively and won quite a bit of money doing it. I played some young guns (21-25) for the first time in about 5 years and, let's just say I made a ton of friends tonight. I got called "cold." Not sure what that means but I'll take it as it means I'm good. Like riding a bike. Played for drinks, mainly, so it was pretty fun watching them buy my **** all night.

Don't know about now (too damn old). I've won over $5000 playing it sporadically in tournaments where the winners take home $1000 ($50 buy in per team). Always done on a random Saturday. Not sure if it's still a thing but there was a World Series of Beer Pong that was played in Vegas where the winning team won $50,000 and you played in tournaments to win your bids (or you could buy in for $500 per team). It was something that I liked doing in my early-to-mid 20s but now I just do it for S&Gs and I'm still good (like riding a bike tbqh).

Your first mistake was not dodging the ceremony in the first placed! I managed to only "attend" one in my whole career. Being in dress uniform, outside in South Carolina swamp heat in formation...for nearly 2 hrs. People were falling out left and right, and all for a couple of DBs and their families? Never happened again. I'm pretty sure I even scheduled leave a few times to avoid them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't even the heat that bothered me; it was standing at parade rest for an hour and my feet turning to stone that got to me. Scary ****. After my feet numbing up, my stomach started churning and just a few minutes later my whole body turned into a noodle and I was fading.

That's a fact, alcohol/beer does not taste good enough to drink it for any other purpose than to be drunk. #hottake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
