    Post here if you like ping pong!

    I've not played in years. Remember playing as a child at
    camps, etc.

    But noticed a upcoming moving is about a ping pong player

    A hustler-turned-champion ping pong player Marty Reisman's journey from playing for bets in Manhattan to winning 22 major titles and becoming the oldest to win a national racket sport competition at 67.

    The movie Marty Supreme stars Timothee Chalamet of Wonka movie fam.

    So may have to check it out.

    Just out of curiousity , I also looked on IMDB (trying to find above info,
    and there are like a number of other movies about Ping Pong).

    One that I can think of is "Balls of Fury" where Maggie Q plays it using a wooden
    spoon. Good comedy.

    That brings back memories, although I haven't played in years now.

    My father built a table himself in our basement when we were young and
    one time I ran into a person who'd been my best friend before we moved
    about 7 years earlier. I ran into him somewhere and invited him over
    when we were about 15 and when he saw thr table, he wanted to play..

    We played a lot so I said sure, and it was tough but I managed to win
    2 out of 3 games with him by a point or two. He later admitted he was
    amazed because he had won some city wide championship (in a city of
    about 160,000 people) and figured he would wipe the floor with me.

    That was fun, but not as much fun as later when I figured out you
    could talk Some ladies into playing strip ping pong.. You have to
    make sure you only win by a point or two to keep them 'trying'.. B)

    Although, I may be drifting somewhat off topic here.. B)
