Why is pickle ball a thing
I find it hard to hate on pickle ball. I have an uncle with various physical challenges but he's able to get out and play pickle ball OK. It's nice to see him doing something physical and social.
Tech bros mostly only do skiing, tennis, golf, rock climbing, volleyball, badminton, and recently, pickleball as sports
as a skier, yeah. 98% of people i have talked to on the slopes are exactly like your post
So you...pickle...a ball?
Because it's fun for the same reason as every other raquette sport but with a lower barrier for entry.
Shitting on pickle ball would have been Dennis learrys opening bit if he was still writing material today.
