Ping Pong Club, Last night, at the Mondrian Los Angeles it was all about small balls…well, small ping pong balls, as the guy who was wearing a shirt that said “SMALL BALLS” pointed out to us.
Yes, last night was the official opening of the SPiN Ping Pong Hollywood and on hand for the games were the SPiN folks including founders Franck Raharinosy and Jonathan Bricklin, Susan Sarandon (a part investor and possible girlfriend of Bricklin’s), Amy Smart, Rachelle Lefevre (she played the first Victoria in the “Twilight” series and then randomly, former “Bachelor” fiancee, Vienna Girardi.
Before arriving at the hotel, we were curious to see how they were going to fit ping pong tables into the ADCB lounge which is just off to the left of the entrance. Well, somehow they managed to squeeze two tables in there, with the second table ending just before the bar. These aren’t the kind of tables found in your parents’ basement. These are thick, sturdy, professional ping pong tables.
And playing on them, were a few professional ping pong players including Wally Green who boasted that he sometimes uses his Blackberry as a paddle.
