ByeDie pads are tabletop pads that can be placed on top of any table to add more unpredictability to your Beer Die games by creating tricky bounces when struck by the dice. ByeDie pads are easily stackable and transportable allowing for great beer die anywhere.

Question 2

What problem do the ByeDie pads solve?

Accepted Answer

Our pitch is simple: The ByeDie pad allows you to get great Beer Die anywhere at a great price. Plastic folding tables make Beer Die easy to take anywhere, but their flat surfaces often produce short, predictable bounces. Custom wooden tables play better, but they’re expensive and difficult to transport. ByeDie pads add longer, less predictable bounces to ordinary folding tables—giving you great Beer Die at the beach, tailgate, campus, or backyard.You can see an example of the ByeDie pads in action below:
