With "ice dancing", ballroom dancing is transplanted onto ice.
Why not
do the same with a much more entertaining pastime, pinball?
A tilted sheet of ice could be placed into a pinball machine
with the obstacles and
other gadgets frozen right into it. Instead of a ball, the player
could use
the flippers to knock around a small puck. Of course,
due to the difficulty of keeping
the ice frozen, the game would probably be best kept outside
at a ski
resort.

What [wagster] said. You should convert ice rinks into giant ice flipper battle fields, think hungry hungry hippos with 1000 pucks. + |
