PORTOPONG | Beer Pong News

PORTOPONG LLC, is pleased to announce its partnership with GrubLife, the first college-focused social buying network. The company offers consumers an account that presents two daily discounts, which are dependent upon enough buyers, to college students and local residents.

Adam Brown, who founded the company with his brother, David Brown, are both University of Michigan alumnus, where GrubLife premiered. “The college years are entirely about exploring new things, and we celebrate that at GrubLife. With us it is not an afterthought, it is our ONLY thought. GrubLife is a 360-degree answer to squeezing way more memories into those college days.Often, as a college kid, your options are limited financially.”, remarks Brown on how the idea of Grublife is to help college students enjoy college and not overspend while trying to have some good old college fun.

At PORTOPONG, we wanted to create not just the world’s first inflatable beer pong table but also the best inflatable beer pong table on the market! We understand that with a product like ours others others were bound to go off and try to make a variation and know in today’s online world everyone utilizes comparison shopping, that’s why it is important to not judge a portable pong table by its cover.

Comparision of a PORTOPONG to a Generic Brand Inflatable Beer Pong Table

You need to know what the difference is between brands. Why do all other brands follow the price mark of PORTOPONG, why do all other brands choose the same color as PORTOPONG, why do all other brands not show action photos of their product in use - yet PORTOPONG has 1000′s of photos in its photo library?

Now let’s discuss quality, in the photo above we show a generic table on the right and a PORTOPONG inflatable beer pong table on the left. The first set of images on the top are of the air valves. Notice on the PORTOPONG table the valves are double reinforced and have two types, one for rapid inflating with an air pump and another for manually inflating by mouth. The photo on the right shows only one style air valve and being of poorer quality actually popped out on us when we blew it up.

The second grouping of photos (lower set) shows how the two tables differ in rack formation, notice the PORTOPONG table uses more material and reinforced cup holders to ensure cups from blowing around and movement in play. While the photo on the right shows how the table uses a triangular cavity with a thin plastic webbing. This design can cause cups to tilt and who know what will happen during a gust of wind while shooting at that last cup!

The answer to all of these questions and more can be found on our why portopong page.

Team PORTOPONG wants to send out a big thank you to all our PORT-O-FRIENDS for helping spread the word about our inflatable beer pong tables and our PORTOPONG name. Thanks for letting us be a part of all your summer parties, vacations, boat trips, lake houses, and concert tailgates.

With the end of our favorite season, we would love to welcome our second favorite season… FOOTBALL SEASON.

With that we would like to remind you that all your tailgate and football parties will be way more exciting this season with something from our sister site too (www.portopongx.com), now with our pitch to you out of the way lets get to the real reason that we are writing. FOOTBALL.

Team PORTOPONG would like to welcome our weekly football blog, from our own Tailgate Guys.

NFL
Lets start at the beginning, WHO DAT! The New Orleans Saints picked up right where they left off last season dropping the Vikings; the overall opening of the football season was a great show lead off with the great Dave Matthews Band!

From what we here New Orleans was closed that day, well work, school, and anything that sucks to do. But the Tailgates and Bars were open, and we are sure someone was partying with a portable beer pong table or something cool from PortopongX.

Great week all around the NFL, The Patriots welcomed back Wes Welker, who showed his ball returning for ACL surgery to grab 2 TD’s.

The Giants broke out the tables as Eli, who would have had an all world game if his receivers didn’t have butter fingers, as they beat up on the kittens out there in Carolina!!

The CALL! The Bears got lucky as the ball bounced their way… when the Refs blew the Lions final TD! Really I don’t know how many games of PORTOPONG they played but they for sure couldn’t figure out what was going on in that situation.

The Raiders got their balls Kicked in by Chris Johnson… and what’s that team. The Titans.

The Steelers showed their balls in the last in overtime against the Dirty Birds.

And Monday Night Lived up to the hype well at least defensively… the Dirty Sanchez showed how bad the J-E-T-S offence is against their Daddy Defense the Ravens! Ray Lewis talked the talk and walked the walk!

NCAA
The College season started last week too, but they played on a date that NO ONE WILL EVER FORGET 9-11. Team PORTOPONG, and The Tailgate Guys send our prayers and thoughts to the families of the heroes of 9-11, and to all our service men and women that are fighting everyday to help us have the freedom to enjoy our lives, and our tailgates! WE WILL NEVER FORGET!

The week was capped off with three really big games. First the TIDE vs. Penn State; Alabama feasted on some cheese steaks and took it to the Lions . Then Ohio St vs. Miami; The Hurricanes brought there A game, but the Buckeyes ended up double sinking to end the game. ND vs. Michigan- Great Game! All that has to be said here is it came down to the last cup!

Get ready for next weeks games and all your party supplies at www.portopong.com and www.portopongx.com and be ready for the latest from the minds PORTOPONG and The Tailgate Guys… The Tail Gate Olympics at the www.tailgateolympics.com (coming soon)

Cheers!

Many people ask us at PORTOPONG if our inflatable beer pong tables are only suitable for playing in beaches, lakes or pools and the answer we have for them is absolutely… NOT.

When we invented the PORTOPONG we said to ourselves we needed something that would allow us to play in the pool but also something that would be worth the money - so year round fun sounded good to us!

Our tables are constructed of 6lbs of material and are reinforced at every seam, plus the overall construction was designed to support the product outside of water. Just look at some of our photos and videos and you will see how people have embraced PORTOPONG for tailgating, backyard BBQ’s and basically any where they want to play.

PLAY ANYWHERE ON ANYTHING! That’s our motto and that’s what we challenge you to do! And yes if you play PORTOPONG on top of a cactus that on is not covered by the warranty (someone actually emailed us and told us a 9ft cactus was the cause of death).
