Faceball, Two Faces, One Ball

ULTIMATE FACEBALL!!1!

Our friends over at Flickr have developed a fun new pastime, Faceball. Two people sit 10 feet apart and take turns throwing a beachball at each other’s face. Here’s an instructional video showing how the game is played. More Faceball photos and video.

UPDATE: CBS 5 (KPIX) in San Francisco did a news story the global Faceball craze.

Can someone please start a Faceball tribe, or list serve, or craigslist gathering place? Something? I think it’ll be an olympic sport by the Beijing games.

Man, it looks like he’s got a tumor growing out of his head.
Either that or Red Nose Day on sterioids.
Oh before I forget, only use the approved FaceBall for this sport.
Medicine balls are not a good substitute..
