Vertical Drinking Games

The 'Wall Pong Plaque' is a Vertical, Wall-Mounted Version of Beer Pong

— January 7, 2022 — Art & Design
Beer Pong is a game that can take up too much space but the ‘Wall Pong’ plaque is a perfect solution. Wall Pong takes the game that is usually played horizontally into a sleek space-saving vertical passtime.

Each plaque is handmade by Nate Barr, an engineer and an artist, in Maine. He constructs each Wall Pong plaque using baltic birch plywood as the backboard and stainless steel brackets for the cups. Every piece also comes with command strips so consumers can easily hang up the game wherever they want. When the game is not in use, the cup brackets can be removed, and the baseboard doubles as a nice piece of art.

The wall-mounted beer pong is the perfect addition to any bar, basement, game room, or garage and can be purchased on the Uncommon Goods website.
