This Bud's not for you

Brewer to End Sound-Alike Bar Game
Budweiser is ending is "Bud Pong" promotion -- basically a version the drinking game known as beer pong -- because (gasp!) people were playing it with beer!

The rules of the game vary, but basically it involves sinking a ping pong ball in a glass of beer. The more points you score, the more your opponent has to drink.

Anheuser-Busch sent out Bud Pong sets -- including tables, glasses and balls -- to bars around the country with instructions the game be played with water. However, they're shocked, SHOCKED, to hear people were playing it with beer and getting themselves crazy sloshed.

Obviously, these are some non-college types to NOT know the finer points of Beer Pong.

I sure hope Fox doesn't follow suit with pulling The Simpsons... heaven forbid the find out about Drinking Simpsons.

And what about Quarters? Should the mint recall the coins? Oh wait.. the Government... they're college grads, they know what is going on.

Too funny...

I think the people complaining and making these decisions (to pull the Bud Pong) killed so many brain cells in college that they forgot how much they actually drank in college. Let’s face it...College kids have binged for decades. It's no big deal. Hey Chris, didn’t you find me propped up against a telephone pole in Plattsburgh?? To this day, I don’t remember that….
