YouTube - How Ridiculous
We’ve seen a lot of very cool inventions here over the years. The world’s largest Super Soaker. A real life Iron Man suit that actually flies. A frickin’ laser bazooka. But the bros over at How Ridiculous just came up with one that I want in my backyard RIGHT…NOW.
That’s because it might be the greatest backyard game ever invented.
What they did, as you will see below, is they combined basketball with the game Connect Four. How they came up with this idea is a mystery to me, but it’s goddamn brilliant.

They call it “Four in a Row” because they don’t own the trademark on Connect Four – Milton Bradley does – but we all know what game they’re playing.
Unfortunately the only way to play it right now is to visit Curtin University in Western Australia by August 6th. I say “right now” because if these guys are smart they will start selling these bad boys to the general public pronto.
