A table includes a table top and a pair of support pedestals. A first pivotal support brace can be attached to the first support pedestal and a second pivotal support can be attached to the second support pedestal. The distal ends of the first and second pivotal support braces can be pivotally attached to a retaining assembly, which may include a cross-brace member. Alternatively, a second retaining assembly including a cross-brace member may be mounted in relation to the table top. In addition, the first and second support pedestals may comprise at least one support leg, wherein each support leg of the first and second support pedestals are laterally offset from each other so as to permit an offset displacement of the support legs when the support pedestals are disposed in a collapsed position.

The table top as in claim 1, further comprising a lip integrally formed in the lower portion of the table top as part of the unitary, one-piece construction, the lip including a first portion with an inner portion, an outer portion and a lower portion, the lip including a second portion with an inner portion, an outer portion and a lower portion; wherein the lip is spaced apart from the first row of depressions and the second row of depressions. 3. The table top as in claim 2, further comprising: a frame connected to the table top, the frame comprising a first portion connected to the inner portion of the first portion of the lip by a plurality of fasteners and a second portion connected to the inner portion of the second portion of the lip by a plurality of fasteners;a first leg assembly selectively movable between an extended position and a collapsed position relative to the table top; anda second leg assembly selectively movable between an extended position and a collapsed position relative to the table top. 4. The table top as in claim 1, wherein the first row of depressions includes at least twenty depressions and the second row of depressions includes at least twenty depressions. 5. The table top as in claim 1, wherein the first row of depressions includes at least thirty depressions and the second row of depressions includes at least thirty depressions. 6. The table top as in claim 1, further comprising a column of at least five generally aligned depressions integrally formed in the lower portion of the table top, the column being disposed generally perpendicular to the first row of at least ten generally aligned depressions. 7. The table top as in claim 1, further comprising a column of at least five generally aligned depressions integrally formed in the lower portion of the table top, the column being disposed generally perpendicular to the second row of at least ten generally aligned depressions. 8. The table top as in claim 1, wherein the first row of depressions is offset from the second row of depressions. 9. The table top as in claim 1, further comprising at least five rows of depressions integrally formed in the lower portion of the table top, each of the rows of depressions including at least ten generally aligned depressions; and further comprising at least five columns of depressions integrally formed in the lower portion of the table top, each of the columns of depressions including at least five generally aligned depressions. 10. The table top as in claim 1, further comprising a first leg assembly movable between an extended position and a collapsed position relative to the table top, the first leg assembly generally disposed between the first row of depressions and the second row of depressions when the first leg assembly is in the collapsed position; and further comprising a second leg assembly movable between an extended position and a collapsed position relative to the table top, the second leg assembly generally disposed between the first row of depressions and the second row of depressions when the second leg assembly is in the collapsed position. 11. A method of constructing a table top, the method comprising: molding a table top from plastic, the table top including an upper portion, a lower portion and a hollow interior portion that are integrally formed during the molding process as part of a unitary, one-piece construction;integrally forming a first row of at least ten generally aligned depressions in the lower portion of the table top as part of the unitary, one-piece construction, each depression in the first row of depressions having generally the generally the same shape, size and configuration; andintegrally forming a second row of at least ten generally aligned depressions in the lower portion of the table top as part of the unitary, one-piece construction, each depression in the second row of depressions having generally the same shape, size and configuration. 12. The method as in claim 11, further comprising: integrally forming a downwardly extending lip in the lower portion of the table as part of the unitary, one-piece construction, the lip including a first portion with an inner portion, an outer portion and a lower portion, the lip including a second portion with an inner portion, an outer portion and a lower portion;disposing a first leg assembly generally between the inner portion of the first portion of the lip and the inner portion of the second portion of the lip when the first leg assembly is in a collapsed position to facilitate stacking of the table; anddisposing a second leg assembly generally between the inner portion of the first portion of the lip and the inner portion of the second portion of the lip when the second leg assembly is in a collapsed position to facilitate stacking of the table;wherein the first leg assembly generally does not extend beyond a plane that is generally aligned with the lower portion of the first portion of the lip and the lower portion of the second portion of the lip when the first leg assembly is in the collapsed position to facilitate stacking of the table; andwherein the second leg assembly generally does not extend beyond a plane that is generally aligned with the lower portion of the first portion of the lip and the lower portion of the second portion of the lip when the second leg assembly is in the collapsed position to facilitate stacking of the table. 13. The method as in claim 11, further comprising: connecting a first portion of a frame to the inner portion of the first portion of the lip by a plurality of fasteners;connecting a second portion of the frame to the inner portion of the second portion of the lip by a plurality of fasteners;connecting a first leg assembly to the table top, the first leg assembly selectively movable between an extended position and a collapsed position relative to the table top; andconnecting a second leg assembly to the table top, the second leg assembly selectively movable between an extended position and a collapsed position relative to the table top. 14. The method as in claim 11, wherein the first row of depressions includes at least twenty depressions and the second row of depressions includes at least twenty depressions. 15.
