Indoor soccer using a gigantic ball, where each player is armed with a taser? Yes, I’ll watch that. (Your move, 2016 Olympics).
It’s called Ultimate Tazer Ball, and the league has four teams so far, among them the Toronto Terror, the Philadelphia Killawatts and the Los Angeles Nightlight. Eric Prum, 25, started the league with German business partner Erik Wunsch, and swears this is all real: they intend to kick things off with a tournament in Bangkok in March. This is all causing some concern, especially in Canada, where stun guns are illegal. Prum says the tasers used in his league have less voltage than the ones used by police.
Finally, a legitimate reason for soccer players to dive.

More like shock and awesome.
I’d really like to see taser use at the running of the bulls. Randomly tase some of the runners and let the bulls go to work on them.
