Foosball

No word of a lie. This game was the reason behind my poor college attendance records. The best bit is that the table football was in the common room, so I was in college all the time. Just in the common room, all the time. At 5p per go, and winner stays on, I could be there all day, and usually was. We called it Nipper for some strange reason, not really table football, and a personal urge to kick against Americanisms.. (we had the language first, stop buggering around with it. Topic deviation warning: Why do they have to change everything into their terms? Foot and Mouth is Foot and Mouth, NOT Hoof and Mouth as they insist on calling it. And it's not BSE ...  Read the complete review

Foosball then, the game of Drunken kings, also a handy little game to be playing if for some reason (suspension, injury etc!) you can't play the real thing. For those of you who don't know this is table football, it doesn't care if you have 2 left feet, this is the way you can score goals like David Beckham or pull off a save the quality of Peter Schmeichel. We've all seen the table in Friends (excuse my language - hate Friends, whoops there I go off on that tangent again), well this is it, the rules are simple, you have one ball 2 teams of 11 plastic men and 4 handles for each team to control their players, drop the ball in the middle ...  Read the complete review

this is truly a great game. It can be enjoyed by all age groups and doesn't need great players. If played to average rules (as in: no spinning) it can be a skillful game. But apart from that, its a good laugh, very addictive, normally cheap, and can equally be played with men and women, its gotta be the best pub game. however, the type and state of a table can affect the enjoyment, find a good one. Also, like other pub games, ie. pool, darts, there are table football leagues, which can bring good friendly competition, and hey, who doesn't like a bit of competition. ...  Read the complete review

This classic game is highly addictive and always good for a laugh. The skill envolved is minimal at 'pub level' which allows luck to play quite a large part in the game. BEWARE - Regular pub users may become skilled at this game and the fun (and lots of money) can be lost. I personally found this game so highly addictive that I just had had to find a cheap table for my flat. (If your looking for one Boyzstuff.co.uk do a good one) but as a pub game, it is one of the games that you can have the most fun for the least cash. ...  Read the complete review

Foosball, or table football as it was better known before Joey and Chandler bought one, is a great game. Essentially it is a two player game where you twist little pegs on sticks in order to get a ball to go into a hole! This underestimates the incredible competitiveness of the average pub goer. This is a fast and furious football game which requires skill, self control and an overdeveloped competition gland. People who have never kicked a ball in their lives can win at this game, and it is great fun to torment lesser players by offering to beat them with one hand behind your back, or standing on one leg. You can buy childrens sets ...  Read the complete review
