ABOUT US

Several years ago, our core group of friends were introduced to the game of beer pong and instantly became hooked. The fun way in which the sport combined drinking alcohol and socializing added excitement to many of our house parties.

However, after a while, we started to grow tired of the same old “two people team up to face two other people” format that is typical at most house parties and official beer pong tournaments.

Most of us were big fans of professional wrestling so we slowly ended up creating wrestling-themed games as well as a few other unique games in order to make our beer pong contests more interesting. Eventually, we also bought some belts to be won and defended as well. This was a gradual process that took place over the course of a few months. Our wrestling-themed beer pong games turned out to be a hit among all our friends, even those who disliked actual pro wrestling.

After several months of ongoing tag team matches, survivor series matches, and championship belt defenses, the name World Beer Pong Federation was coined and adopted among us. The only thing left to do from here was to hold our own pay-per-view.

In July 2006, the WBPF privately held its first pay-per-view, jokingly titled “Pong-Per-View”. No one actually had to pay to watch this event, we just called it a pay-per-view to make it sound extra special. The event was thoroughly enjoyed by all involved and resulted in several new champions, and several dozen drunken people.

In early 2007, we built on and topped the success of the original Pong-Per-View, with the next PPV, entitled “The Great American Beer Bash”. At the same time, the WBPF website was created to spread a greater public awareness of the wrestling approach to beer pong and increase the enjoyment of beer pong players all over the world. That is where we stand today.

 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

So what’s the deal with World Beer Pong Federation?

The WBPF is a pro wrestling twist on beer pong as well as a partial spoof of the WWE, TNA, and the old WCW.

Also, we believe that playing beer pong with a pro wrestling twist is superior to the traditional pro sports approach to beer pong for the following reasons:

* It allows us to play many different kinds of games instead of always playing the standard two on two affairs.

* Winning championship belts is more fun than winning trophies.

* This format allows us to have a full-blown beer pong league without the usual pitfalls. Most beer pong leagues force you to play with the same teammate for the entire season. In wrestling and the WBPF, teams change constantly. Also, in traditional beer pong leagues, it is difficult to keep statistics without a designated sober statistician as players usually become too drunk to remember anything. In wrestling and the WBPF, there is no need for stats at all, you are either a champion or you are not, end of story.

Why not call yourselves World Beer Pong Entertainment?

Because the word ‘entertainment’ should never appear in the name of any sports league, scripted or not.

Are your matches fake?

No.

What kind of matches do you guys play?

We play standard beer pong matches and wrestling-themed matches. You can read all about them in our MATCHES section and we encourage you to try them out yourself. They’re fun, we promise.

What is your official stance on calling beer pong Beirut?

We simply prefer to use beer pong as a universal term for the game, with or without paddles. Most like it that way, that’s why it’s the most popular way to go about it. Whenever we talk about the paddle game, we’ll use the word ‘paddle’. Otherwise, we’re talking about paddle-less beer pong.

I know someone who trains for beer pong everyday hitting hundreds of practice cups. He hits eight cups in a row on average, and could totally kick anyone’s ass, including yours. What do you say to that?

First of all, that person is a major fucking loser for practicing a drinking game (and yes, that’s coming from a guy who put up a website about it). Secondly, the WBPF isn’t solely about skill at sinking cups. We’re not interested in watching or hearing about someone like that for the same reason we are not interested in watching professional billiards: It’s boring when you expect someone to make every shot. Would hockey be any fun to watch if 97% of all shots went into the net? Would anyone like football if 97% of plays resulted in an offensive touchdown?

Have you seen those Youtube videos where guys do trick shots involving sinking a cup from 3 stories up, bouncing the ball umpteen times off of walls, bar stools, chairs, before finally going into the cup, etc.?

Yes, we’ve seen many of them and we think they are all cool and more power to those people who perform them. However, it’s just not something we are interested in doing ourselves. We’re sticking with our wrestling gig.

Are you guys associated with any fraternity or college?

Fuck no!

Would it be a good idea for someone to create World Championship Beer Pong, Extreme Championship Beer Pong, National Beer Pong Alliance, Total Non-Stop Action Beer Pong, or something similar?

We won’t stop you. Just don’t be a dick and come at us. This website is just for fun, not starting some sort of “Monday Night Beer Pong Wars”.

Will David Arquette ever receive a shot at your World Heavyweight Championship?

You never know…
