Bulletball, or Pong, is a gender and age neutral sport for the 21st century invented by homeless man Marc Griffin. After 26 years of gameplay balancing, fine tuning and countless betas, Bulletball and Bulletball Extreme (also known as Professional Bulletball Extreme) is ready to take American living room by storm. Dedicated to his invention, Marc Griffin ended up selling his house, quitting his job, and hocking his wife's wedding ring to finance his "invention." Rather than give up when things got bad, he's opted to sell his game to cripples and old folk. For the aspiring athlete, there's even a set of Bulletball and Bulletball Extreme branded sportswear and apparel available for order.
The Inventor
Marc Griffin, average American everyman, and inventor seeking to introduce the world to the hardcore competition found in nursing homes decided to bring Bulletball and Bulletball Extreme in front of the panel judges of American Inventor.
Unfortunately for Marc, when his wife said "We're gonna need rules," she wasn't talking about the game. But the ever-ambitious , refusing to listen to anyone who doubted his work, decided that all his possessions and financial stability were getting in the way. So he sold everything except his OWN wedding ring and traded away his Saab for a 92 Volvo Wagon.
At least he still has Bulletball.
The Game
Be sure to bring a bottle full of Vitamin Water to refresh those tired, aching muscles of yours.
The Table
Because playing Bulletball and Bulletball Extreme on anything EXCEPT Officially Licensed and Endorsed Bulletball and Bulletball Extreme Safety-Enhanced Handicapped Accessible Bulletball Tables is considered a gaffe in the professional circuit, you should consider investing in a fine construct such as the Bulletball Tabletop model, which folds up over your existing setup. The asking price for this incredible piece of machinery is a meager $79.99. If you wanna play with the big leagues, you're going to need to buy a real table:
The Bulletball Extreme table? $525.99
Might as well buy a PStriple.
