Default Fun basement and backyard entertainment

Creating a list of games/sources of entertainment that would be fun to have either in the basement or in the backyard for when a dozen or two beer drinkin guests come over. Looking for game setups that could be bought or built for 5K or less and force people to interact with others. But mainly I've been going to a lot of campfires lately and have had a lot of fun and met a lot of people playing cornhole and similar random and cheap backyard games which has caused me to wonder what else is out there.

<ul type="square">[*]Caribbean Ring Toss (wallhooky)[*]Cornhole[*]A football themed game with two 1" diameter foam footballs connected with a string that you throw at a football post trying to wrap it like a boa. I have no idea what it's called but it was a lot of fun to play.[/list]Then your more typical:
<ul type="square">[*]Pool table[*]Bumper Pool[*]Foosball[*]Dartboard[*]shuffleboard[*]Air hockey[*]Poker Table[*]Horseshoes[*]ring toss[*]Campfire pit (ok not a game but people love to sit by it it's critical for late night get togethers)[*]Wii - Great physical activity for an indoor game and even people that hate video games open up to it[*]Basketball hoop[/list]
