WhirlyBall, dubbed "The worlds only totally mechanized team sport" is best described as a combination of Hockey, Lacrosse, Basketball and Polo played while riding an electrically powered machine, similar to a bumper car, called a WhirlyBug™. Although the WhirlyBug™ resembles a bumper car, it is a far superior machine. Quicker, stronger and far more maneuverable, the WhirlyBug™ powers you and your team down court in a fast paced, fun filled five on five game.

I am going to whirly the shit out of my balls.

this looks about a million times more fun and dangerous than duck-pin bowling. i need to do more adventure sports.

I played two weeks ago. It was a blast. They also just added a laser tag set-up that's pretty fun after some whirleyball and booze.

oh shit, laser tag?? I'd totally be down for that too.

It only costs $5 per person too. Sweet!

goddamn these backwoods sticks.

And I was so sure this was going to be about helicopter sex...

this will be the next thing i do after the whirlyballing

THOSE GUYS ARE ON SEPARATE TEAMS WHY AREN'T THEY SHOOTING EACH OTHER?

This sounds awesome. I wonder if they have that around these sticks.

i'm pretty sure not, andy. chicago's the only place i've heard of it.

But Indy is working hard at trying to be Chicago....

The gut in the middle looks severely handicapped. In the abstract this game looks cool, though.

I think you could simplify that description to:

Actually, we've got Whirleyball out here in Seattle too - it is a TON of fun....but ours seems to be more expensive than yours

i'll inform the Whirlyball execs upon my arrival.

Yeah, I'm guessing if Indianapolis ever did join the Whirleyball revolution it would be far too expensive for me to ever justify.

I'm not sure if you're referring to my post or not, but it's the Laser Tag that's only $5 per person.

Whirley ball is $10 per person for each half hour or you can rent the court for like $200 an hour (price works out basically the same since 10 people can play).

The basketball part applies though because you're shooting at basketball backboards to score, not Lacrosse goals. They've just got a hole cut where the square would be instead of a hoop.

Sharing a laugh and rubbing shoulders with a female friend?

and then dominating her in an orgy of lasers

A metaphorical orgy of lasers?

i drive past that place all the time and always want to play, but my friends all balk at it. so, when are we having an obner night at whirlyball?

I deem this an entertaining thread.
