When I first heard of “pickleball” I thought “What kind of crap is this”? Still think it’s ridiculous, but if people want to play it...just so they understand that I’m not even slightly interested.

It’s a little known fact that Pickleball was created by orthopedic surgeons.

Never heard of “pickle ball” until I saw it on local senior olympics schedule. First thought was yet another shuffleboard type game. I played handball and racketball for decades until bad foot put an end to that. If I can’t do that I’ll be damned if I’d play a game named after some kind of vegetable!🤨
