From 'quake area to big OH.


This ridiculousness popped up on YouTube for some reason. It's a combo of soccer and tennis. The skill is insane, especially when defending against a smart.

The Brazil dude is wicked.

No never heard of it, but it looks like some kind of parody sport from a Judd Apatow movie. Apologies to any teqball players here, but it looks silly.

It's like spike ball kinda but it's not a net and with a soccer ball. Juggling and volleying balls is hard AF though so I ain't gonna hate.

Man, me and the fiancee watched this match last night too as YT also recommended it to us. Let me tell you, those teqball tables are NOT cheap

Between the name and the 'soccer meets tennis' descriptor, I was expecting something more engaging. Sorry, Teqheads.

I was hoping this would be like when I discovered Kabaddi, which blew my mind at the time.

We got it on our TV as recommended as well. No idea why we got it but checked it out. They have some flexible legs! And wow it had a big crowd! I sort of knew it existed. Seen a gif or something but that it was actually popular. No idea.

I watched that entire video and I still don't have any idea what a single rule of that game is.

I have some kind of block in my brain that stops me from understanding the appeal of watching sport. I just dont understand the appeal. I dont understand how anybody can care about it at all. I dont give a fuck about why i should be interested in why someone from my country or town is better or worse than someone from elsewhere at hitting a ball with a stick or jumping a bit further. Just..... It's like a mystery for me.

Saw people playing this at the park the other day. Seems like fun but way too hard to play unless you've played soccer since you were a toddler

Your YT algorithm is weird?

I just got an email (15 mins ago) that our dormitory got a teqball table for free and we should find a place for it.
