Go Big on Beer Pong

If you've mastered beer pong, and are looking to take on something a little bigger, you need to check out BEARPONG ($65).

BEARPONG is an oversized portable Beer Pong set that can be played anywhere. This set is great to thrown down at the beach, tailgates, poolside, cookouts, and yards.

My first thought when I saw this product was, you're going to need a helluva lotta beer to hold those cups down. Actually, they use a patent pending weighted system to hold down the cups...err...buckets. The deluxe set comes complete with 12 buckets, 3 balls, ball pump, and a unique carrying case to get you started.

Now that I have your attention, I'd like to present Polish Horseshoe, which is also known as Frisbeer or Beersbie.

The game involves two team members trying to knock down the other's team beer can off the pole with a Frisbee. We, of course, recommend using a soda can to avoid any unnecessary beer spillage. Much like regular horseshoes, there are different points awarded for different types of results.
