Hula Hoops and Batons?

I don't know if this qualifies as a "rumor", but I will put it here. The moderators can move it if it fits better somewhere else.

I travel a lot on my job, often to the east cost - there are a lot of aerospace companies there (Goodrich, Sikorsky, Pratt, GE and some Rolls-Royce facilities). On my last trip, I was heading from Hartford, CT to Detroit and I got bumped to FIRST class. I settled in for a relaxing ride home and I kinda dozed off right away because it had been a very long day.

When I woke up Dean K was in the row right in front of me, talking to the person next to him about FIRST. I could not hear all the details, but he mentioned "Hula Hoops" and "Twirling Batons" several times during the conversation. I don't know who the other person was.

That would really be a wierd "Twist" to the game, wouldn't it? I don't know if the hula hoops and batons were the playing objects or what the human players were supposed to do?????

Anybody else heard anything like this?
