Since Ping Pong Gallery hung up their paddles and changed their name to something more mature, I can’t think of any good places in town to play ping pong. What gives?
Curbed last week mentioned a movement to install some tables in local parks. That’d be nice.
That McSweeney’s event (pictured) was fun, but a one-off.
There’s that janky table in the yard at Finnegan’s, but that’s a haul.
Somebody with a table in their art space or office or something want to start hosting a regular ping pong happy hour or something? Please?

yes yes yes
Sadly, the ping pong table at the Matador got retired too – when it changed hands and became Showdown about a year ago.
There’s two tables at the Mission Rec Center. It’s kind of hood but it’s free. I go there to play basketball.
I heard that Tee Off in the Richmond has a table. Never been, probably because it’s in the Richmond but still might be worth checking out.
Clearly we need to start a Berlin-style bar, with pingpong and pretzels. Did you go to Dr. Pong in Prenzlauer Berg? Anyhow, last time I ventured into Cole Valley, Finnegan’s Wake had a table set up.
Dr. Pong is great, but I like Sportklause Glogauer (AKA Balkan Tripps) better. More young people, fewer weird old dudes, and you don’t have to go all the way to Prinzl’berg.
There was a bar in Frederickshain on Simon-Dach Strasse (the main drag) with a robot/spaceship theme and awesome minimal techno with a screaming neon orange ping pong table set under a black light that featured neon paddles and balls. Very amusing when in altered states. But I forget the name of the joint.
In Paris, I saw public outdoor tables — you just brought your own paddle and balls. Pretty great, easy, cheap idea. Right, Mr. Ginsburg?
Doesn’t Thee Parkside have one?
Haven’t seen it out in a while.
The SF TTC meets up on top of the hill three days a week.
