I'm wondering if you have a bot that can place a ball in that or remove a ball from something like that is part of the game. Either that or it has something to do with the pendulum.

The beach ball exhibit you're describing is a demonstration of the Bernoulli principle -- that which makes flight possible.

Using that sort of exhibit in a game, though, would seem somewhat silly. It is typically very unstable and the ball will begin to oscillate back and forth in the air, eventually losing lift and falling off to the side.
