On Tetherball
One of my favorite sports to play outside growing up was tetherball.
There are a lot of good things about tetherball. It only requires two players. It takes up very little space. It is extremely fast-moving. It's easy to learn and challenging to master.
Plus, I was probably above-average at the game.
And you can probably get easily knocked unconscious by the tetherball, which makes it altogether more appealing to nearly any male, myself included.
Sadly, I don't think I've seen a tetherball pole since high school. Are the things still around? I would love to find one and play against someone again. Heck, we should get one for our lab. That would make coffee breaks a tad more interesting.
And why are there no professional tetherball players? Or why isn't tetherball in the Olympic games?
