Pongapalooza
February 26, 2025 6:30pm
Ping Pong
Be here at 6:30 to join the ping pong tournament. We’ll make the bracket based on turnout.
We'll set up a fun and friendly tournament bracket and let you duke it out for fame, glory, and eternal bragging rights. The winner will get to add their name to the golden paddle trophy.
We'll kick off the action at 6:30 and play until the tournament is over. After that, we'll wrap up the night with doubles, pickup games, skills challenges, and more. Feel free to come play even if you're not in the tournament.
Beer Pong
On the other table, we'll fire up some good ol fashioned beer pong. Bring your partner or come solo and make a new friend. We're keeping it casual, no brackets, no tournament so you can get in the mix whenever you'd like. Be careful though, if you're good enough at beer pong, you might make some enemies too (just kidding, we're all friends here).

Reel Rock 19 is on tour worldwide starting March 2025.
