Congratulations: Beer Pong Champion of the World

It's official. We have a Beer Pong (also known as Beirut) Champion of the World. Jason Coben and Nick Velissaris, both 23, from Ann Arbor, Michigan, won the first ever World Series of Beer Pong, held at the Oasis Resort Hotel & Casino Convention Center in Mesquite, NV. Aside from the prestige, they walked off with a $10,000 pay-off (after the obligatory call home to Mom.)

And Mama said beer drinkin' didn't pay.

Our heartfelt congratulations go out to these fine athletes, as well as all the fierce competitors that ponied up to the table and dipped their balls in the foamy amber goodness.

To everyone else, it's time to get ready for next year.
