World Series of Beer Pong VI - January 1-5 in Las Vegas

The Iceman retired from beer pong in 2010 after WSoBP 5. Well then it's a good thing that the WSoBP 6 takes place all the way into the future in the year 2011. Or a bad thing depending on how you look at it. At this point I'm going to go ahead and take a positive look at it because I have yet to play a game out there (I'm still in Milwaukee at the moment) and have yet to witness the embarrassment that has become my beer pong career. More on that later of course. It's something like 3 in the morning right now and my flight leaves in 6 hours. I just wanted to get on here and let you know that I will be updating this blog while I'm out in Vegas for a more detailed look at my time at the WSoBP that my Twitter account and Facebook statuses (or stati? Either way they will be plural because there will be a lot of them) cannot provide. If I'm feeling up to it, I will post some pictures and write a detailed account of the day's activities. If I am too drunk I will record an episode of the Pookcast and tell you about it myself. From my mouth. So that's basically it. You know how to follow my adventures and make sure you chime in with encouragement or comments saying damn it Iceman you're just too old to still be playing beer pong. I appreciate all kinds of feedback. Sometimes it's just nice to know that there's someone out there who gives a shit. Especially if you are a single woman. Let's face it, I'm almost in my 30's and I'm definitely not getting any cuter. So you know how to reach me.

I would like to wish a very happy and safe New Years to everyone and may 2011 and the decade of the teens bring you all the shit that the 00's promised but failed to deliver. I'm looking at you Flying Car. I'm going to start the new year as I have every year for the past 6 years - drunk of my ass playing beer pong in Las Vegas. Maybe some day I will grow up and forget all about this Tom Foolery, but that time is still not upon us. So look out for some more updates and all of the other Ill Shit that you've come to expect (which I also have delivered) over the years. Wish me the skill to hit nothing but foam and the ability to Just Play. May the wise wisdom of The Godfather always be in the forefront of my mind and let my partner Hummel pick me up when I fall down. Let me forget that I am supposed to be a responsible adult and that at the World Series of Beer Pong I can be accepted for who I am without having to put up a front or make excuses for my behaviors. But most of all let me remember that beer pong is a game and that games are supposed to be fun, so grant me the poise to have the same attitude and demeanor in victory as well as in defeat. Also please someone tell me what the hell I am writing about...

Hummel that Shit!
