Ping Pong

[mj4cy]

As anyone who takes classes in Town Engineering Building would know, I've been playing a lot of ping pong this month. I also came across this video. Crazy is the only thing I can say!

At my work we play a lot of ping pong and watched this video along with some other good videos of ping pong. I wish I could do a cart wheel, let alone hit a ball too.

I've seen a few chinese exchange students pull that move off in the Town Hall Lobby. :wink:

They have ping pong in the lobby now?? How do you guys get any studying done??

We used to sit around a couple of tables and actually study between classes in the lobby. :GEEK:

Yes, they just got a table this fall. If I ever had an hour between classes that is what I did.

I'm in town now grading papers and finals and I'm waiting for someone to give me a reason to take a break for some ping pong!

I used to work at the Ames airport while in school and they had a ping pong table in the basement of the FBO. We used to spend HOURS down there on the weekends when there were no authority figures around. I got pretty darn good, not Forrest good, but good.

I work with some guys who use $200 paddles. Does anyone else see this as a little crazy. They are pretty good, but with that much money in a paddle you better be pretty fudging good.

One of the profs here has a 150 dollar paddle.

 

[HILLCYD]

I don't know why I am surprised there are $200 paddles, but I am.

A friend of mine is pretty high up in the table tennis world (don't let him catch you calling it ping pong) and he has a "serving robot" in his basement to practice with.

I would love to get a table.

Does it look like this?

Close, but it is a bit more on the boring side...

Also, Talia Shire not included.

Number 5 is alive!

 

[isuno1fan]

TOTALLY would rock their world with my skills. No way they could handle my "slice" serve!

 

[wonkadog]

I'd picture the robot looking more like "Short Circuit". Only with long hair and lipstick...

mjones34, regarding your moniker Idiot Hawkeye fan hater, the arrangement of the words as they currently are permits the descriptive phrase to be interpreted in a couple of ways, one of which is not very flattering towards you...

Just sayin'...

Gump sure was a great ambassodor for us with his ping pong skills. Great movie.
