I Wish I Had Thought of Dorm Golf in College
While I was busy in college going out to parties, coming home at three in the morning, and hanging out in bars, these kids were developing a new sport of kings: dorm golf.
I caught this link through Devil Ball Golf. The Sporting Blog has this video of college students that are wasting their parents' money thinking innovatively about ways to pass time at college between boozing partying studying hard.
In college, I created a game with my old roommate called Hall Ball. Basically, it was a two person game. The pitcher threw a squishy ball down the hallway. Then the batter hit the ball with a ping pong paddle down the hall. Points were scored based off of where the ball landed in proximity to the pitcher - before him, same zone as him, or past him...or in the end of hall bathroom.
For a few months in 2006, Hall Ball was our lives.

you’re right – instead of carrying your books to “study” at those bars and parties, you could have just kept them in the dorm ! :-D

Looks like fun
…and they could be doing a lot worse. Plus the 200 foot putt, accounting for break and not hitting the walls — that was impressive!
Bonus: they will be well-qualified for the executive suites. I was on a teleconference not so long ago and I could hear someone tapping putts into an automatic ball return. The dude was a Senior Director. Go figure!!!

What a silly thing to
do when you could spend more time drinking beer without expending all of that energy…

You betcha. Golf is really an opportunity to drink beer and get some exercise at the same time.
