Cornhole at Sliders Bar & Grill, 504 Washington Blvd
This beanbag aim game is usually seen at outdoor barbecues, but many O's fans play it at Sliders while they're pre-gaming for a night at the Yard.
Shuffleboard at City Limits Sports Bar, 1700 E. Fort Avenue
Shuffleboard has become a hugely popular bar game, but the table at this Locust Point sports bar is long, roomy, and just tattered enough that we don't feel too intimidated.
Spin-the-Wheel at J.A. Murphy's Tavern, 1703 Aliceanna Street
This is a total game of risk at J.A. Murphy's. Where you land on the wheel could determine if you're getting a free drink, engaging in a drinking contest, or buying shots for the whole bar.
Obscure Trivia at The Wharf Rat, 801 S. Ann Street
Trivia at The Wharf Rat (Tuesdays) is far from normal—the questions are eccentric, the prizes are bizarre, and tiebreakers can be settled by chugging a beer and running around the block.
Skee-Ball at Johnny Rad's, 2108 Eastern Avenue
This favorite boardwalk pastime can be found in the newly expanded Johnny Rad's. Have a few beers and see who can land a ball in the 100-point slot first.
Beer Pong at Nobles Bar & Grill, 1024 S. Charles Street
The formula is simple—beer, Ping-Pong balls, and Solo cups—which is a good thing because this frat-favorite gets patrons at Noble's pretty tipsy after a few rounds.
Ping-Pong at The Laughing Pint, 3531 Gough Street
It's sort of a haphazard set-up (they put a board on top of the pool table), but Ping-Pong at Laughing Pint is free and can turn a lazy night at a bar into a heated one-on-one competition.
Guitar Hero at Alexander's Tavern, 710 S. Broadway
The upstairs of Alexander's is every gamers dream with a giant flat screen and Wii attached and, most nights, overconfident patrons can be found testing their chops on Guitar Hero.
Board Games at Bad Decisions, 1928 Fleet Street
If you're looking to keep it old-school, the shelves of this Fells Point bar have all the classics—Trivial Pursuit, LIFE, and Jenga.
Gay Bingo at Club Hippo, 1 W. Eager Street
Far less boring than a typical bingo hall (CD giveaways, drag queen hosts), Gay Bingo on Wednesdays at Club Hippo benefits the Gay and Lesbian Community Center of Baltimore.
