5 Unique Beer Pong Gifts

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

Every Saturday morning, college students across the country are nursing major hangovers as a result of the previous night’s beer pong play. In just a few short years, pong has become the most popular drinking game in the US… and for good reason. The game is fun as hell (and majorly addictive).

If you’re shopping for a unique gift for a beer pong lover, we’ve got five recommendations that are sure to impress. Cheers!

Buzz-Shot Beer Pong Card Game

Buzz-Shot Beer Pong Card Game

Buzz-Shot – The latest craze in the world of beer pong! With the Buzz-Shot card set, you’ll be challenged to perform difficult trick shots by drawing cards and performing the instructed shots. I recently tested out the game and can personally vouch that it adds an intriguing twist to the world’s best drinking game. [$9.99]

Portopong

Portopong

Portopong – If you’re a beer pong fan and haven’t heard of Portopong yet, we want to know what rock you’ve been living under. Play pong in a swimming pool, basement, hotel room or on any flat surface with the 6ft. x 3ft inflatable surface. [$49.99]

Football Beer Pong Table

Football Beer Pong Table

Football Beer Pong Table – Some guys dream of  becoming NFL players or astronauts. However, if you aspire to be the world’s greatest beer pong player, you’ll need a regulation size table to practice on. Our football table meets all regulations for The World Series of Beer Pong and folds into a briefcase for easy transportation. [$134.99]

Bombed Beer Pong Kit

Official Beer Pong Kit

Bombed Beer Pong Kit – The Bombed kit includes 2 racks, 22 cups, 3 balls and an official beer pong rule book. [$22.99]

Beer Pong Rack

Beer Pong Rack

Nice Rack – The Nice Rack holds cups in perfect formation while play is going on – this way, you don’t have to worry about cups sliding around on a wet table, tipped cups or a huge mess after the game is over. However, the best part about this rack is that you can freeze it before the game so your beer will remain cold during play. [$27.95]

Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010

The ladies of OneWed know what women want.. and what they DON’T want. Take their advice and avoid these items when it comes to your Valentine’s Day shopping.

Power Tools (unless she’s into woodworking):

You think that you’re saying, “I’m here to take care of all your needs.” She thinks you’re saying, “I really wanted this drill, so I gave it to you.”

edibleundies

Wait, these are tacky?

Kitchen Items (blender, mixer, etc):
You think you’re saying, “I know you really want a new blender.” She thinks you’re saying “Now that we’re getting married the romance is over, get in the kitchen woman.”

Clothing (unless you absolutely 100% know her size):
Buy it too large or too small and you’re asking for trouble.

Tacky Lingerie (think edible or crotch-less):
If she thinks that stuff is sexy, she’ll buy it herself.

Gym Membership or Exercise Equipment:
Really, do you need an explanation?
