You can call it ping pong, table tennis, or wiff-waff but it’s all the same to me: one of only a few racquet sports allowed indoors (office racquetball was discussed, very briefly). Ping pong duals have been popping up in the office like Somali pirate attacks in the Gulf of Aden so it must mean that a LegalMatch Ping Pong Tournament is in the works. Brackets and seeds are being set so dust off your paddles or order a new one because it’s going to get heated.
Word around the office is that there are some pretty beastly table tennis hustlers. I don’t want to hype this too much but you should probably come with a juice box or some orange slices to rejuvenate after this face-melting ping-pong furry.
Don’t worry if you aren’t a pro at pong because there will be handicaps (see golf). I know I’ve been honing my skills but still plan to bring a triple-threat of mediocrity: bad eyesight, lacking small motor skills, and a carefree attitude. Game on!
