Still can't believe when I lived on the other side of the street out there I didn't make it more often.

Now I'm back in the sticks and less likely to make it. :)

Man...I haven't played on foot in forever.

Anyone remember The Ball Park in O'Fallon, IL? Ott and I played there back in the day.

I also heard since Vetta took over they may be playing again. (Might already?)

The old Ball Park started up roller hockey a while back...it was called Way To Play. They also had video games, rides and a play area for kids with a ball pit and whatnot.
We had a team that played a couple sessions up there. We won the championship our 2nd season.
They had yellow sport court...which kind of sucked. But it was cool to play roller hockey in the exact same spot we played floor hockey in the early 90's.

They used a purple puck which was terrible with the black stripe at the bottom of the boards.

I don't know what the place is now. You think they might start up floor hockey again? :shock:

Vetta Sports took it over. I just checked their website but didn't see anything about it.

I had heard it from some guys I ran into @ Hotshots that played on other teams while we played up there.

We're all still in awe of your beer delivery service. Classic.

If they had roller hockey this near to me I know I would play up there. I really don't like playing at All-American.
