That is greatness. I have seen pictures of the one near Boston. If it's the same one, they have had it for about 20 yrs. Our wiffleball team in the early 80s almost spent some money to participate in a weekend tournament there. However, the teams were 3 players and we played in a 4 player league. We called ourselves the 4 S's that each players nickname began with an S. As we won and dominated, other teams referred to us as the Studs. We never adopted that.

Hey, I am still looking for coaching on how to do that!

As for the video itself, Great Stuff! I didn't know that whiffle ball was more than a playground game...

I wonder if there will be a movie, a la the Dodge Ball movie that came out a couple of years ago?

At the end of any youtube video URL is a string of characters following a v=. Just paste that string between [youtube][/youtube] tags.

So, if you wanted to embed this one, entitled "David Forgets - cats are harmless" found at the url:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PaiiV-5BpGA

...you would type:

[youtube]PaiiV-5BpGA[/youtube]




(If you forget, just click on the vB code is On link in the Posting Rules square at the bottom of each thread or posting page, and scroll down to the YouTube entry. )

Thank you very much! I might try that if I come across another worthy clip.

Hey! I HAVE a worthy clip I would like all to critique. I will start another thread (then I gotta go to work!)
