Trash Basket Baseball
Cyrkam Airtos is a simple, and significantly challenging online game - and I mean significantly. Because aside from the significance of the challenge and all that is therein implied, it also signifies the "fun anywhere with anything" premise, which is central to junkyard sports and related junkly efforts. And, perhaps of even greater significance, it is a clear, virtual illustration of a game that you and your friends can play with real trash and real trash baskets.
You need: a chair, at least one trash basket, a pitcher, and a basket repositioner. You don't really need a chair. And, if pressed, you could probably play by yourself. However, the scenario depicted by the virtual game has more strategic depth, and is probably a lot more fun (especially if you're the kind of person who has more fun playing with other people than playing by yourself). You could easily add bases and more people to the game, should you so desire. Suppose you had several trash cans, for example. And each can was a different base. And the opposing team had basket repositioners for each basebasket.
You could even play this game on wheelchairs!
Thanks In4mador!, for noticing....
