Okay. that explains it. from the less-beer-knowledgeable parts of the world, a keg was a keg and the little one was a half-keg or a pony keg, because if you started throwing in quarter-barrel you'd a) confuse the hell of people and b) sound like the worst party in town ("dude, swing by tonight--we're taping a quarter barrel--rock on!")

Got it. We usually said, "hey swing by we are going to have a couple of halfs." Otherwise you would say, "hey swing by and we'll tap a quarter -- I'm inviting one other person."
We did think the beer balls and pony keg / can thing were cute little novelties though. But when you could pick up a half barrel of Old Style for $25 what's the point?
