in Hoaxes And Conspiracies

Beer pong is a popular game amongst college students that has been played for many years.

A recent report from Fox News, however, suggested that the game could lead to the transmission of some unwanted diseases, such as Herpes -

After being reported by such a popular news group you would think that every student should stop playing Beer Pong immediately wouldn’t you?

After all, it’s not worth taking unnecessary risks with your health.

But hang on, could it be that the story picked up by Fox was a hoax?

View The Colbert Report below to find out -

Indeed it could – the hoax story spread quicker than Herpes ever could!

    Well, yeah, I would agree with that observation for sure but it seems like a fairly harmless and fun game.
