Good news: the World Series of Beer Pong VII will be streamed live on Facebook on Wednesday, in case you can’t make it to Vegas to watch it. Want to watch the best beer pong in the world, or just play along? Just go here and give the secret knock, or whatever it is they want you to do to register. Press release:
TV Free Media teamed up with Milyoni to provide Beer Pong fans unable to make it to the event in-person with a great social experience via Facebook. Using Milyoni’s Social Live technology, fans can watch the finals from virtually anywhere in the world, and chat, comment and share the experience with friends and other fans. Viewers can RSVP or purchase access to the broadcast using one of two global currencies, Facebook Credits or PayPal. Access to the championship is available for 50 Facebook Credits/$4.99 if purchased in advance or 70 Facebook Credits/$6.99 once
The event takes place in Las Vegas, featuring more than 400 teams — among them Splash Buckets, Hooray for Boobies, We Swim Naked, Easter Keg Hunt and The Sluts (the latter are two guys, by the way).
Yes, there is a National Beer Pong League (NBPL), in case you were wondering. Players participating in the World Series qualified by winning regional satellite tournaments around the nation. Last year, the winning team took home $50,000.
