JohnBall

In my quest to remain active (even on non-crossfit days) I agree to do activities that I have never tried before. Heck, at least (I figure) it will give me something to write about. With that in mind, my friend Max and I went out and played a game called JohnBall. A week or so ago, I saw the video posted below and thought it looked like a lot of fun. I posted a message on Facebook seeing if anyone wanted to get a game together, low and behold a guy I went to high school with (but hadn't seen since) has a regular game every Sunday. For those of you unfamiliar with JohnBall, it looks like this:


There are many different variations on rules, but the basic rules are always the same. Players are armed with plastic bats and they try to hit large rubber balls at other players without coming into contact with the balls themselves. It is a lot of fun, and way more tiring than one would think. I do believe I will be back at some point in the not too distant future.
