Starting up B Pong Tournaments in Bars? How to get a liscense
"tefiteusmc"

Hi guys I'm with Boats and Hoes and Vagtastic Voyage and we are out in Albuquerque NM and want to start Beer Pong out here so we can start satellites. Do any of you guys know how to get a liscense so we can do that in bars or know how to set up for having tournaments in local bars. If you can help us out that would be great. Hope to see you guys next year
Yo, were down here in Clovis NM. We were team Come Honor. My brother is a detective for the State Police there in Santa Fe. He did a little checking for me and New Mexico has a gay law called "enticement". No bar can advertise drink specials....OR host games that are not registered under their definition as a game of "skill".....since Beer Pong is truly in its infancy to the public eye, the first thing we must do is show them that it really is a sport....therefor I am putting a portfolio together including videos showing exactly how Ron downed a bottle of jack and was still able to make cups.....thats fuckin skill.
I think it will help that the WSOBP is being shown in a positive light. No fights, minimal idiots....and for the most part EVERY team that walked up to the table were respectful (at least during our games), and I think its pretty safe to say that for a whole ball room of drunken dude bags, everyone was respectiful of each other, the building, and the staff. This is going to be really helpful when it comes to getting States like NM to change gay laws.....
I have been talking to the people at Coaches and we have to call it water pong and they have to buy their beer at the bar, but there will be "prizes".

ask them if you can call it beirut. thats the original name for the sport anyways. and just to let you know, most ppl wont care if they are playing with water. some will but you probably dont want them at your tournament anyhow. good luck

No license needed. I throw Tournaments in Charlotte, NC all the time. I also work for a promotion company called Lazyday.com and we usually host the events. We purchase the keg as the third party and people have a blast. But we also have to have the option for water or whatever else the laws permit.
Just have fun and meet new people, hi Heather.
It is extremely important that everyone meet people and have fun. What up, Greg-O! I don't know if you know this about me, but I sink balls.
Hi, Heather.

Hi gman...I'm a bar owner in albemarle, nc. I heard it was illegal, health codes and benge drinking laws...is that true? I'd love to host events, but obviously don't want to get in trouble. Any advice?
