Reply to comment by ekim7267 in Pickleball players banned from NYC park after turf war with kids by habichuelacondulce
My parents decided to move upstate when I was in high school in the early 90s and that’s when I first learned of pickle ball. I thought it was made up by the gym teacher (I was too cool to ask the gym teacher about the game and it was before one could look it up on Google). It’s a little like tennis with paddles and a whiffle ball (there are proper pickles balls and paddles now). It’s actually really fun, and was happy to see that it’s a real game that’s becoming popular because I would love to play it again, but not at the cost of being a dick to children and others in a public park.
Handball was fun too and would attempt to play if everything didn’t hurt as much as it does these days.
