Last month Gary and I entered a beer pong tournament and got crushed in the first round, within about 10 minutes of getting there. So when Gary's friend was having another beer pong tournament at the same bar to raise money for a marathon benefiting leukemia research, we decided to check it out but not play.

When we got there, 45 minutes late, we were strongly encouraged to participate. So we gave in and entered the tournament as "Harold and Kumar." We don't know what happened, but somehow we did extremely well. We weren't just winning our games, we were dominating them. We beat teams with half our cups still on the table! While everyone else got drunker as the games went on, we stayed sober. We had tons of time to kill between games, and had a great time.

But in the end, we didn't quite pull it off. Though we got through the winner's bracket easily, and had an hour to kill (and sober up) before the loser's bracket even finished, we weren't able to beat the last team. It was sad because they had to beat us two times, and we only had to beat them once. It was the same team we beat in our first game.

Although we didn't win the tournament, Harold and Kumar had an awesome night.
