And yes, I am serious. A racket sport for 2 to 4 players that takes elements from tennis, badminton, and table-tennis, it is often played by retired folk in Floridian resorts. One wields a wooden, plastic, or graphite paddle, smacking a Wiffle-ball across a fairly low net until someone keels over from exhaustion (that's what it seems like anyway).
"Most play Pickleball for exercise, but it never works."
"Many people at The Villages play Pickleball (However, due to the fact that only two people under the age of 70 have entered its gates, we may never know for sure)."

Get the Pickleball mug.Pickleball is a sport made popular in the late 10th century by Lord Cadwallon ab Ieuaf of Wales. The rules of the game were simple: two players known as 'Pickle-yarls' are confined to an eight foot radius circle. On opposing sides are 20 gallon vats of pickling solution. The audience is distributed cucumbers (or eunks). The audience is then encouraged to toss their cucumbers at the Pickle-yarls. The player who successfully pickles the most cucumbers in a month wins the game.
There are, of course, regional variations of this game. In North Wales, it is most common to find the simple version of the game. The more sophisticated Southern Walers, however, cover their cucumbers in glue and award points to the audience members who manage to successfully stick the cucumbers to the players. At the end of the month, the audience member with the most points, or 'yimps' is given a ham to do with as they please.
