Maybe the Wall Street Journal has always done short films on the glories of college drinking games, or maybe the recent buyout is changing the institutional culture.

Is it just me or is the WSJ changing?

This will be banned by governments across the country within two years for public health reasons.
Then the universities will go after the game inside fraternities, completing wiping out this scurge! =(
Jeffrey,
All I can say is consider the source.
The dumbing down of America.

I don’t think the game will be wiped out any time soon. It’s been played in colleges for at least twenty years and in bars (some with leagues) for at least five.
As far as bars go, restrictions vary by state (you will be shocked to know that Mass doesn’t allow it).
It has to gain the attention of newspapers and broadcast media before entreprenurial politicians are able to ‘grasp the issue’.
It this becomes a widely-circulated AP story, beer pong is going to be the target of new laws in no time.
That looked and sounded more like a first-year Journalism student’s homework.
I know that this is valuable information because not only did the Wall Street Journal produce it, it was shown on the pages of mises.org.
(that was sarcasm)
I am truly disappointed that the Wall Street Journal has missed the true significance of beer pong. I dare make a claim that it is responsible for maintaining our entire economy. What would we do if millions of brain cells were not being destroyed every weekend on college campuses?! Beer Pong is one of our only hopes of clearing all the bullshit out of students’ heads after indoctrination to the world of the communist far left by the liberal faculties week after week. Thank God that due to beer pong our students “learn” little from lefty professors.
