Thanks lbb. The Disc Shootout looks like fun. And goddam, wiffle hurling looks like a blast. Hilarious that the goalies have the big bats! Plus, it screams of not being able (physically) to go to work the next day (or the next few days).

When I was a kid my Dad owned a small motel in a small town on the Florida panhandle. We had a pool table and got to be quite good at that, and thought up a new thing to do: Each player had a ball to hold in his hand as a ... stick, I suppose, with a third ball as a puck. The idea was to get the puck into one of the opposing player's holes for a point. Sort of like air hockey. Very sore digits accompanied both teams.

If I may ask, where on the Florida panhandle? Bloodshotjock@yahoo.com if you don't want to discuss it here. I'm a FWB/Pensacola/Panama City Beach kid myself, born and raised.
Now, I live in Northern Indiana; what the hell happened to my life?

I tend to believe that some sporting events should be as nuts as possible. Give my blog Redzonians at jasperwheats dot blogspot dot com a read for some balls out craziness

How about a "Jackass" flag?
