Fix a Dented Beer Pong Ball [Games] Investing too much in replacement beer pong balls? Refurbish your banged-up balls with this easy fix. We could have titled this one “fix a dented ping-pong ball”, but most people can play a round of ping pong without unleashing their Godzilla stomp on the poor ball. Beer pong is a different beast altogether. If, after a night of beer pong and bad steps, you’ve got a cup full of dented ping pong balls, you can bring them back to life with a couple simple tricks. The first trick, pictured above, is to boil a pot of water and place the balls into the boiling water for about 10 seconds to pop the dents out. The other version of the trick involves a lighter. Since, as Wired points out, ping pong balls are made of nitrocellulose which burns easily we’re going to suggest sticking with the boiling version for the sake of safety.
