You're listening to One-on-One with D.P. Presented by Beatrice Bakery on 937 The Ticket and the Ticketfm.com. I found my new favorite weird sport. For anybody wondering, it's called Taser Ball. It's like soccer. But it's a giant, it's an oversized soccer ball. You can kick it or carry it. But everybody has tasers.

Offense and defense. So you can carry the ball and try to, you can carry the ball and try to stiff arm somebody with your taser. Just, but also those people are trying to tase you to get the ball back. And we're watching a video and some guys running. He tries to stir farmer guy with a taser. There's a league. He kind of got him, but the other guy got him right on his chest and dude just fell down, drop the ball. Both the offensive and defensive player just collapsed on the field.

And then the next guy who was just recently tased got up and had to track down the ball. Now, there's a league. So there are rivalries and there. And Dennis. Love it. And I'm typing in Taser Ball, baby. The rules.

Is there a, there's a league, right? Yes. Is there a Nebraska team? There should be. Because I would have joined. Okay. Under the rules, uh, okay. So here, it's ultimate taser ball.

Ultimate. Under the rules of the game, players are allowed to use the stun guns on opposing players who are in possession of the ball. So you can't just go and tase some random dude who was just standing. I'm blocking. Although. Although, yeah, right. And I throw you, boy, he goes, why did you throw an interception?

Because I didn't want the ball. I didn't want the ball. The ball came to me. I kicked it away. I'm not saying, nope. The devices emit a current of three to five milliamps, sufficient to cause localized muscle spasm, but no permanent damage to the vital organs.

Now, just telling you in watching it, these folks are like, falling. They are in pain. Like they, this is, this is, um, players must be registered and have someone standing by for medical assistance in case of injury. Uh, of course. You're using tasers.

Uh, they said, uh, the league has been shut down due to injury. Boo. Uh, it's been shut down. Uh, sport. It was invented under the name, uh, ultimate taser ball. Bring it back. It was first played in California. Two teams compete. That is surprising.

With a large 24-inch diameter ball into a goal at either end of the 200 by 85-foot field. So imagine like an indoor football arena. It doesn't look like. In that space. And you just, you know, going through. Then there's, what's the one where the people have the pole and they have to. Oh, it was something from Sweden or Norway. Right.

I don't know what it was called. They, there's a large wooden pole. And it's in like a creek. Like above a creek and then the other side is like sand. If you don't, you have to run with the pole and as the pole. As the pole is planted, you have to climb the pole. So you can't do like a pole where you just bend. No, you have to climb up the pole because if it elevates and gets past vertical and takes you into the other space,

you're trying to go for distance. The farthest in that little sand pit wins. So the higher you are on the pole, the further you go. The further you go. Except people get lost and people don't get vertical. Some people don't climb fast enough. Some people don't have enough momentum when they hit the pole. So they either fall into the creek or the pole starts going back.

I'm stuck on toe wrestling, foot wrestling. Nope. I'm stuck on foot. Hey, what was that one where? The goat. So it's like football or rugby. or a polo. It's polo.

But instead of a ball and a stick, you're using the corpse of a dead goat and you're trying to get it into a tub. Like a gigantic tub, but still a tub nonetheless. What did the goat do to you? The poor goat. They were like, instead of a ball, let's use a goat. But not a live goat, because that's too much. It'll kick and fight.

Let's use a dead goat. I'm stunned by all the world. And let's ride horses. Yeah, the horse part, like, that wasn't necessary. Then number seven, the redneck games. which I've never heard of. So basically it's diving into a puddle. A gigantic puddle of mud.

Belly flopping into it. Like belly flopping into the mud. Now, again, there's some depth to it. But still. Then there's the wife carry. The wife carry. And then, of course, I favorite the wet t-shirt contest. I don't know how you win that.

Be a grandma. Okay. Be a grandma. Grandma won. Grandma wins. Grandma won it. Victory. Yeah, she won it.

She won it. So, yeah, Rico found his sport. It is indoor. It's human equestrian Olympics. I don't remember what you called it. Yeah. You ride, hobby horse. Hobby horse.

You ride one of the little fake horses, the little stick of the horse head, and you're doing the whole equestrian competition that they do in the Olympics. But instead of the horse jumping over the stuff, you are. I would be great at that, but then they posted a part where you have to do the little trot, and I'm not doing that. You do the little equestrian. I'm not doing the equestrian trot. The horse dance. I will do the, I will do the hurtling over the things. Oh, I kick everybody's butt in that.

Yeah. Rico was just watching. You're going, I'd be so good at this. Yeah. I was like, let me get some Js real quick and just, ah, because it's not like a basketball court. Right. Make quick cuts. Hurtle over the stuff. I'll be good to go.

But then like, all right, now do your little trot. I'm like, I'm done. I'm done. The captain's show, it's wingstop, 28th, today? Yes. 28th or 29th and Superior. Yeah, I think that's where they are. Yes.

So check him out. You've got a good show coming up. That'll be it for me. I'm going to hand it over to Nick, Rishon Jackson. Enjoy your Wednesday. Please, be nice.
