In a follow-up chat, Interlandi tells me that he’s in serious training for this event, and that he has a beer pong table at his house- a professional one, of course.

“I practice about three times a week. I’m pretty serious about this.”

Interlandi said he went so far as to train during the Reality TV series on Showtime when Vivid did the re-make of Deep Throat.

“You can see me on Showtime playing on my custom made Deep Throat beer pong table,” says Interlandi.

“And we’re going to have an official Deep Throat wardrobe for the show,” he adds. “This is serious and not a publicity stunt. It can be a man or a woman- porn stars, executives, whoever.”

I assumed, talking to Interlandi, that experience in drinking was mandatory.

“You have to be able to hold your liquor and shoot the ball,” agrees Interlandi. “The tournament is four days and you’ll have to put up with drinking every single day.”

I asked Interlandi who’s the sadistic bastard that came up with this schedule, since it begins New Year’s Day; and one will assume the contestants will have gotten a jump starting the night before.

“You know how hard it’s going to be waking up?” asks Interlandi. “It’s going to be rough. But I was in it last year. I didn’t do very well. Hence the need for a new team mate.”

I asked Interlandi if this meant his partner from last year was still in Detox. Interlandi says, no, that his partner joined the Special Forces because he likes the game, Call of Duty 4. Serious.

“He wants to kill Taliban,” says Interlandi. “Right now he’s in training. He’ll be in Iraq by the time the World Series of Beer Pong starts. So I lost my partner. I can’t believe that’s the reason why he signed up. He was playing the game on Xbox 360 and he got hooked.”
