Both a coffee table and a foosball table, this Offside Foosball table is just the thing for millionaire former dot com employees to re-live their happy days in the office. The $7600 table has a glass top, a mirrored foosball field and is hand-crafted by Howard Bushell in Worcestershire, England. Classy and tacky all at the same time. [Drinkstuff via Uncrate]
We can build our own for 2% of that cost!!! Stinkin' Brits trying to sell us their crappy wood!!!

$7600.00!!!!?????!!!!!!
from what i can tell, it's just oak. they didn't even take the time to make the corners look nice, just left the edges exposed threw in a couple of bolts. big deal! it's not that hard to cut wood at 45 degrees and glue it and brace it. for $7600.00, that would definitely be on my list of expectations, along with a more exotic wood. i'm willing to bet that the players are the cheap, plastic faceless ones too.

this was one of the replies from the website forum.

"That's pretty sweet, but $7600?!? For that price, it should be filled with midgets controlled by cattle prods!"



after looking at it on the website, i can see that they do not use the cheap plastic figures, rather thin wooden planks for players.

All right, now you're talking! When can tweak our cattle prods to get better performance out of the midgets.

Now that's funny right there, I don't care who you are.

Oh, this is so politically incorrect, I am going to Hades in a hand basket.

Sorry!
