I don't see any relevance for this article --D-Kuru (talk) 18:56, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

• Strong delete. Non-notable bar game with no references provided. —C.Fred (talk) 23:30, 5 November 2008 (UTC) Revised recommendation 01:45, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment and Suggestion - I might be inclined to agree, but the image for it had to come from somewhere. I recommend adding it to a future list of drinking games. ----DanTD (talk) 06:24, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
    • Yes, the image was created by the same person who started the article. Circumstantial evidence, but it does suggest that the game just isn't that notable or widespread. —C.Fred (talk) 17:14, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

*Merge with Beer Pong. Never heard of this myself, however, it seems to be a variation on the game. Coastalsteve984 (talk) 22:13, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

• If there were a hint of it being played outside of one instance, I'd consider a merge. However, I don't think Beer pong needs inundated with every local variant. —C.Fred (talk) 01:47, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
• DELETE Per the information presented in the comments below... Coastalsteve984 (talk) 14:02, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

This is a NEW game! invited at a party after a team beat everyone at the party in beer pong...The game is played at local bars, The drake (Jekintown, PA ) www.draketavern.com and The kitchen bar.(Abington PA) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sgl5030 (talk • contribs) 00:22, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not for things made up after class one day. —C.Fred (talk)

The game also isn't even mentioned at the Drake Tavern's web site or forum. If it isn't even mentioned at the alleged playing site (and I won't even go into the health code violations the game presents)... I'm changing my recommendation to a strong delete (see above). —C.Fred (talk) 01:45, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

After class? This was at fraternity's party. Its the same fucking game as beer pong cept you use your mouth! Why is beer pong aloud to have a wikipedia site? Just cuz Blow ball is a new game and isnt all over the news doesnt mean it wont be in a year. Half the shit on wikipedia is bullshit anyway! But hey if you guys are that against the game being on here, then take it off! it wont bother me, we will still play the game. I tried figured other people that like drinking games would like to know about it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sgl5030 (talk • contribs)

One key difference is that there are many independent sources provided in the beer pong article. —C.Fred (talk) 17:49, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

Delete Per nom. Fails notability, lacks sources. Game over. JNW (talk) 22:41, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
