There's crappy plastic chairs, and some partially deflated green balloons. Are you enthralled yet? You should be, because the walls at Sports Club may be an unappetizing mustard colour but they are lined with super awesome table tennis tables, and if there's one thing we've invested our time in here at ThreeThousand, it's table tennis.

If you do decide to journey down the stairs into this peculiar hall you may come across a few serious-types. They will be weedy in bodily form, have a look of intense focus in their eyes, and probably have their socks pulled up. Ignore these wannabe Slobodan Grujics, you're there for some frivolous fun, and the fact that "Now You can get Beer"* will aid you in this mission. There is also "Free Lesson for beginner" and a "Pingpong robot" who is "ready for you!"

Don't laugh, just do it. Go during happy hour between 10 and 2, and play for free, or hit it up before you start raging on Friday night. Embrace the Forrest within.
