Aug 21 2008Guy Makes Olympic Village Out Of Cards
First LEGO, and now cards. Bryan Berg, the world record cardstacker, recreated the Beijing Olympic Village using over 140,000 playing cards. Nice, Bryan, but let's put those cardstacking skills to real use and cheat some girls at strip poker! What do you mean you don't want to cheat? Well fine, but you don't get to play then. Or watch. What you can do is run to the store and get me a 12-pack of tighty whities.
Thanks Sara, say -- what are you doing tonight? Wanna play some cards?

in 1999 i lost a card stacking contest to this tool. He coats his cards in a heat activated mild adhesive. When they're inspected by the guiness dudes, they're not sticky...he however holds a small stack long enough to activate the adhesive. I got caught because I was using a hot glue gun. cheater cheater pumpkin eater, not winner winner chicken dinner..

@8
People born with no sense of humor is very sad, you should start a club.
Let me guess, you're comeback is going to be something along the lines of "I do have a sense of humor to things that are funny".
There, I just saved you a reply Mr. Originality.
10. Svetlana - August 21, 2008 4:06 PM

That's a better comeback than I expected. I'll have to write that one down. It hurt the 'ol ego for sure.
