That is, on the elusive occasion the table isn't warped or wobbly, net/clamp apparatus malfunctioning, balls missing or cracked and paddle handles busted off.
Gear problems aside, unless players are evenly matched, points last 1-2 shots, someone gets pummeled and everyone reverts back to screen time.
For this joy, you spend a fortune on a table-turned-dust-collector AND the extra real estate to store it. Joyful indeed.
