Re: What the trackball is REALLY used for!

We used the trackball to play 4 on 4 indoor Trackball Soccer, which is pretty much normal soccer except with a trackball.
The only problem is that today everyone who played is complaining that they got hurt by the ball.

Re: What the trackball is REALLY used for!

Let's just say our trackball has battle scars, but still hasn't officially popped yet. It deflates a little each day, but it hasn't popped. We've played extreme volleyball with it using the field as the net. We've played what we call Hippo Ball, long story. It's where we take it and kick it and throw it at each other as hard as we can while we're forming a circle. We had a video, but out videographrer, Brett, took it off Youtube. Also, just today the guys that were left, plus me, decided to have our teacher hold it to his hip area while our heaviest male members run at him. Let's say it ended with him flying back 7 feet, slamming into the tables, benches, and stools at the side of the room. He hit his head hard pretty bad, too. Plus he was wiggling his tooth some afterward. Plus, we totally demolished our field! Good thing I won't be there tomorrow to help clean up our war wreck of a workshop!

Re: What the trackball is REALLY used for!

We like to bounce it around as if in bball. Now we'll really have fun w/ it knowing that we dont have to test anything out using the ball.
