Ping pong and pickleball are literally the only two "sports" I am actually good at at, thanks for reminding me op.

Chiming in as a "played it in middle school" goon. That was...


Sigh

That was over twenty years ago.

The old people around here are obsessed with pickleball. I've never actually seen anyone play it and assume it's just code for swinging which would explain their weird fixation on it.

I guess now that young people took shuffle board back they needed something new.

poo poo, we played this in gym class. I totally had forgotten that it even existed.


e: IIRC it was mostly a middle school thing. I don't think we played it in HS.

Played pickleball in HS gym as well, it was a lot of fun.

One of the tennis courts I play at is in a public park and every so often we show up to find olds have drawn a pickleball court with chalk on the tennis court. It's there a lot but I've never actually seen them playing.

shuffleboard is the ultimate old man's sport

Or bocce ball. There's an added benefit for the old men sometimes in maintaining the grass, it's like shared extra lawn.

If pickleball was an olympic sport I would have tried to do that for sure
