Manage episode 364981445 series 3323560
WARNING: This episode is cursed. We had to record it (or parts of it) no less than three times, and we still had Frank drop out unexpectedly for a few minutes. (Don't worry, he didn't say anything important.) But it's here now, and it's full of sports games! Rotisserie Baseball! Electric Football!! SO MUCH GOLF!!!
- Tipp-Kick, still going strong after 100 years! (Here's video of a few professional soccer players from Germany's Bundesliga having a game.)
- Electric Football, where plastic players slowly and erratically vibrate across the field. (There's video for this one too.)
- Arnold Palmer holding a golf club tipped with Arnold Palmer holding a golf club...
- "This is the better game, although it's unplayable..."
- Our first simulationist dexterity game!
- And one more video, just because it's ridiculous - Boccerball!
