New Jersey Borough Bans Outdoor Drinking Games POSTED: 8:43 am EDT August 3, 2005 UPDATED: 8:54 am EDT August 3, 2005 BELMAR, N.J. -- Belmar has banned outdoor games involving alcohol. The so-called "beer pong" ordinance aims to curb rowdy behavior by renters, who swarm the Monmouth County resort every summer. Officials say the games expose families to fowl language, disorderly conduct and dangerous alcohol consumption. The ordinance prohibits any alcohol-related games or contests on lawns, decks and porches.
