WhirlyBall Chicago

WhirlyBall is  easily one of the greatest drinking sports inventions there is. For those of you who don’t know, it’s a mix between the following sports:

  • Basketball
  • Lacrosse
  • Bumper cars

Basically you get a little boozed up with your friends / coworkers, and hit the whirlyball court for a 5 on 5 bumper car battle. You have plastic lacrosse mitts and try to pass the ball around and score a goal on your opponents. The goal is a 1.5 or so foot hole in the middle of a basketball backboard.

Checking, ramming, and bumping of all sorts is allowed and strongly encouraged (especially as the booze starts flowing). Very fun place for company events and outings; i’d have to give the Chicago Lincoln Park location a 5 out of 5 on the drunken fun scale.. where else can you drunkenly operate heavy machinery safely and legally?
