Probably best played in the tropics, this
new sport is a variant of tornado chasing
but with waterspouts. Many teams can
participate, each with a speedboat and a
pinball.
The boats will chase the waterspouts;
ideally not getting too close but the
occasional accidental slurp will help
with
television sales.
Once in position, the pinballees will be
thrown into the water. These
unfortunate
people will be wrapped in, say, a
metre's thickness of bubblewrap and
duct tape, with
a couple of waterproof cameras taped on
too. Better have a few airholes too I
suppose.
The winner of the game is the pinball
with
the longest flight time. Like horseracing,
the lighter pinballees will have a natural
advantage, so should probably have to
carry lead weights for fairness. We could
have flippers mounted to the speedboats
too but that would just be silly.

GPS m, or cm for excitement, could cut engines. ?Pinball? Isn't this for a multi-ball soccer type watersport. |
