With all of the so many important things going on in my life recently including but not limited to the nintendo wii, my brother getting married, and going to orlando I almost forgot the crowning jewel of my most recent achievements. THE PING PONG TABLE. I have never owned a ping pong table. Well let me qualify that. I have never owned a ping pong table that I didnt personally make for less than 30 bucks using a bucket of green or blue paint and a piece of particle board from Home Depot. So a couple of Saturday's ago we went garage sale shoping. After traversing the richer neighborhoods we crossed a ping pong table which we secured for 50 bucks.
Later when I returned to pick the table up I told the guy thanks for selling it, to which he replied, "Well I really didnt want to sell it but we just dont have the room to keep it." As I left his house I counted no less than 9 windows on the front side of his two story house that included a garage and probably a basement. I didnt have the heart to tell him that I was taking that beauty of a ping pong table to my "backyard." Really I should say my fenced in back floor mat. It now sits there in all of its glory under a tarp we bought from walmart. This is me playing the pong the first night we got it! It is hard to tell in a 2D picture, but really the area you are looking at in the picture is about an acre worth of land, so the new pong fits quite nicely in there!
