Michael Jordan has been the name of the game for almost the entirety of NBA history. Even though he retired in 2003 from the game, his popularity remained the same for many years. Even now, fans are always looking forward to anything that the legendary basketball player might be up to. Notably, this was also true even nine years ago, when the NBA legend played beer pong, but avid fans found a fault in his technique.

Notably, beer pong is a party game where players throw ping-pong balls at their opponents’ cups that are decorated on the edges of the table with either 6-10 cups each. Then, as the game progresses, the player who throws the maximum number of balls into their opponents’ cups to make them drink wins. But there is an unsaid rule of the game, that is universally known by the players, to keep the elbow within boundaries.

In a tweet by popular news/meme account Total Frat Move from 2013, it showed Michael Jordan playing a drinking game but with a significant fault.

His elbow, as seen in the image, was more inside the table than it normally should be. This means that he has been simply dunking the ball at the opponents’ cups, instead of aiming to throw them.

Thus even the image was posted saying, “The elbow rule does not apply to Michael Jordan.” Notably, Michael Jordan is known for having one of the longest arm lengths in NBA history with 34¼”, while also having a wingspan of 83″, thus giving him an extra edge in the game of beer pong.

It is also to be noted that the game has to be played very precisely and thus who better to play it with than Michael Jordan? As the now 59-year-old basketball legend won 706 games in his entire career of 1072 NBA games. Along with this, he also played with an accuracy of 56.9% with at least an average of 30.1 points per game.
