Because we have noted an inexplicable dearth of imaginary celebrity ping-pong championships run by websites with limited readerships, we have endeavored to bring you the greatest imaginary championship since the BCS. Who among us doesn't lie awake at night contemplating what might happen when Fidel Castro meets Keanu Reeves or George Foreman takes on Teri Hatcher, or Mr. Ed goes hoof to toe up against a speedo-clad Vladimir Putin? Over the next week the field will be whittled down based upon your votes (and if no one votes then we will quite simply decide ourselves). In the end one of these celebrities will be crowned with the only award they have never sought or aspired to attain. And so the tournament begins with ping pongographies of our contestants.
And so with these words, the greatest imaginary sporting event in the history of Celebrity Ping Pong was born. In March of 2005, the staff of Deadly Hippos tirelessly brought you 19 days of exhaustive coverage of the subsequent event. Here, recreated for your pleasure, is the whole event, chronicled in exactly the same way. Perhaps the historical perspective afforded by the several intervening months will shed more light on what was truly one of the most spectacular gatherings of influential celebrities this millennium.
Without further ado:
