Ping Pong over the Abyss is the debut album of The 77s, released in 1982 on the Exit Records label.

One song from that album, "Renaissance Man," was later recorded by The Ocean Blue. "It's So Sad" was later rerecorded, with a drastically different arrangement, by Roe's other band, the Lost Dogs, for their album MUTT.

The title comes from Allen Ginsberg's poem "Howl," section 3: "I'm with you in Rockland / where you scream in a straight jacket that you're losing the game of the actual ping pong of the abyss."
