CollegeHumor: Man Of The Century Articles This Month http://www.collegehumor.com http://www.collegehumor.com/article:1718172 The World Series of Beer Pong Champions Tue, 06 Feb 2007 15:13:09 -0500 http://www.collegehumor.com/article:1718172 <table border=0 width="360px"> <tr> <td colspan=2>

Recently, the second annual World Series of Beer Pong was held in Las Vegas. 246 teams competed for a lot more than "winner stays" - the top prize was $20,000. After 1600 games and a new keg every 25 minutes, Team We Own Your Face emerged drunk and victorious. Known to their parents as Neil Guerriero and Tone Vassilatos, these beer pong all-stars are truly the Man of the Centurys!


How was the tournament organized?

Neil: They put you into divisions of about 20 teams or so - 12 divisions total. You play about twelve games over two days. For the final bracket, the top 3 or 4 teams in each division compete in a 32-team double elimination tournament.

Tone: Then it's may the best team win (that would be us LOL).

(editor's note: this interview was conducted online. Tone did not actually say "LOL")

A few months ago we posted a video of a groom and his best man splitting a fifth of Jack Daniels hours before the wedding. Though everyone there seemed impressed, nobody really looked surprised. I recently caught up with videographer Adam Henderson to find out how the wedding went, and why we never got any video.

The question on everybody's mind - how mad was she?
She was pretty mad. She didn't see Ryan, the groom, all day. By the time we were at the reception, he sobered up enough to not make a complete ass out of himself.

How did the wedding go?
It was interesting. Ryan had trouble walking down the aisle. He kept saying hi to people sitting in the crowd. Chris, the other guy drinking, fell asleep during the ceremony and fell over. He was one of the groomsmen.

How many people witnessed this?
It was relatively small, no more than 75 people. When Chris fell, his Dad helped him up and carried him out of the chapel where he threw up a few times. He came back in 5 minutes later yelling, "Thank you everyone for your support!"

Is there any video of this?
Yeah, but you don't see Chris leave. All you see is Ryan looking really happy. Nothing funny at all.

Are they still together?
Yes. The wedding was a year ago, and they're happily married.

Shots?
No thanks.


Thanks for taking the time for an interview Adam. You, Ryan, Chris, Mrs. Ryan, Ryan's parents, and everyone else who was there is truly the Man of the Century!

Recently, the world lost visionary Momofuku Ando. You may not recognize his name, but you've given tens and maybe even hundreds of cents to his company. Ando was the inventor of Ramen noodles, and the founder of Nissin Foods.

We all come from different walks of life, but at some point everybody has to make a meal out of Ramen. With the possible exception of whoever invented bongs and John Belushi, nobody has contributed more to the college experience than Momofuku.

Today, we say goodbye to a great man. I have never met Momofuku, and most of the information about him online is in Japanese. Still, I imagine his life was as varied as the flavor packets that came with his noodles. Ando was probably complex, like the taste of Taiwan Roast Pork. He probably ran his business with an iron fist, but with his family still found time to be as sweet as the taste of Sukiyaki Udon. Also he was oily and beefy, like just about every ramen.

Though many consider instant ramen noodles unhealthy, Ando lived to be 96 years old. He is said to have eaten chicken ramen almost everyday, including the last day of his life. Momofuku, you are the MAN OF THE CENTURY.

Trevor from the University of Wisconsin La Crosse has.

While doing a routine pre-Thanksgiving inspection, Trevor's RA discovered what appeared to be a beer bong. However, as Trevor explained to his residence life adviser, it was actually a device used for cleaning fish tanks. Residence life understood, and their letter has since been immortalized in the pictures section.

I interviewed Trevor so we could find out exactly where the misunderstanding was.

Trevor, a lot of people have written in trying to figure out exactly what happened. Let's pretend I'm the director of resident life.
Okay.

We found a drinking apparatus in your room. Is it yours?
Yes it's mine.

Game over buddy. You're suspended.
But it's not a beer bong. You found it on the shelf, right?

Umm... yes.
Yeah, I use that to change the water in my fish tank. You know, the 45 gallon one under my bed. There isn't enough room to change the water unless I use a funnel and tube.

Last week, Joe Somar lived the dream. After winning a case on The People's Court, Joe gave an unbelievable post-game interview (in case you missed it, click here to watch). This week he's the MAN OF THE CENTURY. I sat down with Joe to talk about The People's Court, mustaches, and what comes next.
What happened after the cameras stop rolling? Did the interviewer say anything? Yeah, the camera guy said "cut" and looked me dead in the eye and said, "What the hell was that?" The interview guy actually just sort of walked off. He's a douche bag. What did you say? I sort of just shrugged it off. I was already hella late for work and I sort of wanted to get out of there. The studio has a pretty creepy vibe. They shuffle the defendant and plaintiff out of separate entrances, I guess to avoid ECW-style brawling around the building. But they made everything seem a lot more serious than it could possibly ever be on that show. It's a really tense vibe. How so? I'm actually certain they consider themselves to be a real court. The producers make you sign a million forms about how legally binding everything on their show is. They ran down the judge's entire judicial history for me. I believe the speech ended with, "So you know, this is a REAL big deal." Which isn't the best prefix for, "So now we're going to send you to makeup."

The Apostles
]This week's Man of the Century is no mere man, but in fact nine men. According to the Washington Post, these nine men attend Georgetown University, and wanted nothing more than to live together in a $2.4 million dollar house... with a pool... that one of their parents bought. Unfortunately, zoning laws dictate that only six unrelated residents are allowed to live in the house at once - unless they are in a religious community. So the boys went down to city hall, filed some paperwork, and founded a religion named after the man who bought the house - The Apostles of O'Neill. "This shameless proposal makes a mockery of the Zoning Ordinance (not to mention religion) and could have potentially devastating effect on the quality of life in our neighborhood," said one old fuddy-duddy who is obviously too old and should move away from a college town, according the Post.

I sat down with John for an exclusive IM interview about his costume, Halloween, and life itself.
From, "I'm going to build a working Transformer costume" to, "I'm done." How long did the project take? I worked on it Monday through Thursday, from about 5 in the evening till 3 or 4 in the morning... so about 35-40 hours? Really? 35-40 hours? Yeah, luckily I only had one homework assignment this week. I totally lucked out on everything with this costume.

Don't believe it's real? Check out some of the close-ups. Though we've received hundreds of jack-o-lantern submissions ranging from the pornographic to the nostalgic, this one is easily the most impressive. I'm no expert and I've done no research, but I'm ready to declare this the single greatest work of art ever committed to the medium of pumpkin. Look at the detail on the brow. Look at the extra attention that went into projecting TRUTHINESS in the back wall. Look at the way Colbert's gaze pierces your very soul. This is more than a jack-o-lantern - this is a masterpiece-o-lantern. Phill reports that, from start to finish, the pumpkin took four hours to complete. The entire project was completed with an exacto knife. "Getting the TRUTHINESS to project on the wall correctly was the hardest part," Phil said in an exclusive interview, "much harder than the face." This isn't Phill's first Jack-O-Lantern to grace CollegeHumor. Last year, he submitted this Hokie-O-Lantern. If he doesn't send in something better than the Colbert-O-Lantern next year, his Man of the Century status will be revoked. Congratulations Phill! You are truly the MAN OF THE CENTURY.

  • At one debate, Jay and his vice presidential candidate both removed their jackets to reveal torn, sleeveless dress shirts. That's exactly the kind of razzle-dazzle showmanship contemporary American politics needs.
