Mountain Pong: The Drinking Game You Never Knew You Needed

Ah, ping pong balls, red cups, and beer-covered floors. If that doesn't transport you back to college, then we're not sure how you spent your golden years. Even if those competitive nights are a thing of the past, it might be time again to bust out your flick-of-the-wrist talents thanks to Mountain Pong — the classic college drinking game's better, younger brother. He's multileveled, he provides more support, and he's down to come with you wherever you go.

By Aug. 23, its Kickstarter campaign is shooting to raise $30,000, more than half of which has already been funded. What makes that figure even more impressive is that the campaign just launched on July 24. So why should you bring Mountain Pong to your next soirée?

Think skeeball with alcohol-filled targets — Mountain Pong's elevated backboard is optimal for your bounce shots that usually don't make it in or get swatted away by your competitor. However, players are required to complete each "level" before advancing. And instead of the six- or 10-cup table setup, there's a total of 12 to hit.

The device is constructed of high-density plastic, which means your cups won't spill or get knocked over. Plus, it's lightweight and stackable for easy portability. Even if you're not into the game, it kind of makes an awesome cup holder.
