One of the most buzzed about sports lately is Pickleball. It’s sort of like mini tennis. Smaller than a tennis court, but larger than ping pong. You use paddles, an almost wiffle ball like ball, and compete either solo or in two person teams. Very similar to Badminton but with a ball and shorter net.
But where did the name come from? The sport was invented in 1965 by Joel Pritchard, Bill Bell and Barney McCallum on Bainbridge Island, Washington
According to the Prichard family, Joel’s wife Joan who in the past had been a competitive rower, came up with the name Pickleball because it reminded her of a pickle boat. Which is when you have all rowers of mixed abilities in one boat. The reason being that Pickeball is a mix of all different sports. Tennis, ping pong, golf, badminton, etc…
I may need to take up Pickelball soon! Looks fun.

This woman reached retirement in the most unexpected way ever.
At 72 years old she was still delivering pizzas for Domino’s down in South Carolina. A few weeks ago while walking up to a family’s door she tripped and dropped all the food. The Ring camera caught it all on video. Luckily she was okay and so was the food.
The video went viral on TikTok and people started to feel bad for her. So the family decided to setup a GoFundMe so they could give her a really big tip. They’ve now raised over $268,000! Which they will give to her to help with retirement.
Amazing.

Today is Mardi Gras which is historically a Christian holiday celebrated by many people around the world especially down in New Orleans. Where they famously throw one giant crazy parade in the streets. The day is traditionally known as “Fat Tuesday” but why is it called that?
Ever since Mardi Gras started back in the 17th century Fat Tuesday was the day when everybody would “feast” before fasting during Lent which starts on Ash Wednesday (tomorrow). So today is the day to eat everything. If you’ve ever been to New Orleans you know full well how incredible the food is down there. I’m sure people are enjoying all of it as they party down Bourbon Street.
