Yesterday was a half day in the office for a celebratory ANC team event. The outing? WHIRLYBALL!
And oh yeah. It totally rocked.
From WhirlyBall.net:
WhirlyBall, dubbed “The worlds only totally mechanized team sport” is best described as a combination of Basketball, Hockey and Jai-Alai played while riding an electrically powered machine, similar to a bumpercar, called a WhirlyBug. Although the WhirlyBug resembles a bumpercar, it is a far superior machine. Quicker, stronger and far more maneuverable, the WhirlyBug powers you and your team down court in a five on five game.

Crazy, that looks fun 🙂
I wanna play! Although I think I’d concentrate more on hitting ppl. =P
That’s awesome. MAQ is planning an event for that soon, and I had no clue what Whirlyball was. I can’t wait! Hopefully, I won’t get hit mercilessly like I did at Cannon beach.
Oh sweet! Yeah, it’s great. I was at first skeptical cause I’ve never been a fan of bumper cars, but these “Whirly Bugs” are so much more.. maneuverable. And it’s not as jarring when you bump into each other. However, having more body mass would have been handy at times..
Wow! Never knew such an awsome sport exhisted. Reminds of a sport you might see in the movie Tron. Was there a little blue floating orb called The Bit screaming “NO!……YES!…..YES!…..NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!
That looks awsome, where do you go to play it?
