In third place was the Mantis who had an impressive run in the winners bracket before being squashed by both Foster and Steph. In 4th place was DC's very own Jeff Gillen. The 5th-6th place match deciding the last qualifying...

The tournament was a blast with a lot of close matches, elated triumphs, and crushing defeats. There will...
The tension in the air was palpable. The upstairs bar at Nobles was at maximum capacity as the mob of Maryland Beer Pong players watched the drama unfold with bated breath. Wet Ballz, the two-time defending Maryland State Beer Pong champions, were only one cup away from adding another major to their illustrious career. Just as Tiger Woods was handing his PGA Championship to the unheralded Y.E. Yang, another superstar had only one shot left to make to solidify his title as People’s Champion. The arc of Theo’s shot was reminiscent of a beautiful rainbow in Ireland, the kind created...

What a week! Forget about the four tournaments in eight days. This week we got treated with the 20th edition of the Tuesday Morning Bring-Back, your favorite monthly beer pong blog. Well just when you thought things couldn't get better, it's time for me to take you to The Woodshed.
In this edition of The Woodshed, I'll be reviewing "The Book of Beer Pong", the first actual book dedicated to beer pong that I'm aware of. After reading this country's average pong player's forum post, I'm not surprised at all that this is the first of its kind. Film...
The Washington, DC Summer League came to an exciting close in the nation's capital. Hearts were broken, underdogs were triumphant, and legends were made. Taking home the gold in the first ever DC league was DMX who won the final match by 8 cups over 2nd place rookies Hitchhikin' Home (video) who rumors have it, run the DC beer pong scene at another bar in DC. In third place was rookie team John Wilkes Booze which also featured one of the highest tournament placings for a woman in MDBP tournament history. In 4th place was veteran team No...
It’s the little things in life that bring us the greatest happiness. Nothing makes me happier than walking into a Chipotle at lunchtime and not having to wait in line, or getting myself worked up for a tournament only to see Fuali penciled in for our opening-round match. I can only imagine the happiness that stems from reading a long-awaited Tuesday Morning Bring-Back on a Tuesday.
I knew it had been a while, but I had no idea it’s been over a month since the last Tuesday Morning Bring-Back. A lot has changed since my last edition. So let’s recap...
