That is a loving crime. I would 100% watch people doing triple flip spin things at 7AM on a saturday on BTN.

Trampoline is so much more baller than water polo or golf.

I'd appreciate Big Ten trampoline in the middle of the night when I get home from things. It'd be great. I'd watch it.

It could be the Big Ten's water polo.

I also want a MICHIGAN: TRAMPOLINE CHAMPS '69 retro-style t-shirt.

I really want to get this trampoline thing going, it'd be a natural rivalry between Michigan and Iowa. Plus, you could do both men's and women's trampoline, making it Title IX compliant.

I used to go to summer camp in the Cheaha mountains of Alabama. They had nice rectangular trampolines built into the ground there. I used to love jumping on them & thought they were awesome until a camp-mate had his calf torn open on one of the springs and I got to see what calf muscles look like in real life. Yep.

This is the thinking of a uncoordinated coward.

I will allow nets around it only if they are used to stage elaborate cage matches with your friends that eventually involve doing the Macho Man Elbow on one of them from the top.

I love trampolines. The only time they spook me is in those SkyZone places where you can land half on a hard surface, half on the trampoline. Mostly because that guy had a gnarly open tib-fib fracture during that show about the trampoline basketball league (slamball, maybe?).

If you had a trampoline and didn't let Hulkamania run wild on your friends you were doing childhood wrong. Somewhere there exists video of me and a few of my cousins elaborately wrestling on our various neighborhood trampolines.

The scary part of trampolines wasn't falling off them, but rather it was getting your fingers snapped off in the springs if they got stuck in there, which is why someone invented the really lame elastic trampoline which only gave you like half the bounce of a good ol' fashioned one.

We'd would just go up to the hay loft, which was probably more dangerous because one side was a 20 or 30 foot drop into a tractor or something.

When asked which Pokemon he evolved into, Kamara pauses.

"Motherfucking, what's that big dragon shit? That orange motherfucker. Charizard."

The best part about owning a trampoline was double bouncing your friends and then giving them a little shove so that their momentum carried them off the trampoline entirely while they frantically tried to fight the laws of physics. Also covering them with dishwashing detergent and aiming a sprinkler at them while you bounce. Also also that one stupid friend that jumped off the roof onto the trampoline and ended up with broken bones.

A family friend visiting us for the summer was doing this and fractured his pelvic bone. We all laughed at him and said quit being a baby when he was crying. Then we picked him up and moved him inside and poo poo-talked him some more. Good times.
