For the correct answer, Table Tennis and ping pong are not the same. In ping pong you have to hit the ball on both sides of the table every time whereas in Table Tennis it's only it the serve where you do that.
Don't worry Abe, you made a common mistake made by nearly all Americans, not that Americans would know much about table tennis anyway, being only 30th in the world.

Yes, they are both names for the same game, BUT we are not allowed to call it Ping-pong because the name was trademarked (Milton Bradley, I believe). So we are required to call it table tennis.
