Oh man, I just realized these descriptions may be a little too old.

If I recall, Slamball was an idea cooked up that had trampolines where the "Key" is on a basketball court. It aired on TNN/Spike TV for a while. Don't recall if they still play it or not or if it gets any exposure anywhere...?

HAHAHA

Oh man...I remember those days

Insomnia kept me up many a nights where I caught on to slam ball

But I dont think its still around, although it was featured on an episode of King Of Queens last year

I was still watching pro wrestling while it slowly degraded even more, and Slamball was like an XFL quality league though it wasn't attached to wrestling like the XFL was.

Havent heard that in a while, that league was sweet.

Me and a few buds used to set up trampelines and we got plastered playing....it was sweet.

Slamball is coming back this year 2007. They will be doing a demonstration at the Final Four in Atlanta and jump off with another big event this summer. I jumped onboard with them the first year it was on Spike and got to know Mason Gordon (creator and player) and he's kept me informed ever since. I got the fan site going and hopefully will again now that it's coming back. I have no idea who will be playing again so it will be interesting for me also to know which of the old players came back and what new players will look like.

Cool, thanks for the update. Slamball is just so fun to watch, with all the dunks and stuff. It is insane and most of the players know how to shoot the three too. It is a very competitive game and a joy to watch!
