So long, Bud Pong
Turns out not everyone was playing by the rules with Bud Pong. Some people were playing the Ping Pong drinking game with beer instead of water, and now Anheuser-Busch has been forced to discontinue the national Bud Pong promotion. An A-B rep explains: “It has come to our attention that despite our explicit guidelines, there may have been instances where this promotion was not carried out in the manner it was intended.” Some people just ruin it for everyone.
