No thats tether ball.

Ladder ball
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ladder ball is a lawn game similar in game play to horseshoes. Simply put, you toss a "bola" (2 weights on the ends of a piece of rope, named for the South American tribal weapon it resembles) toward a short ladder. Ladder Golf LLC currently holds a patent on the system

beer and ladder golf:thumbsup, i also love playing the original "JARTS" for beer. if it wasn;t such a drive for me i would take you up on it. the bar where i live puts a tourney on every year, along with a washerbox tourney. unfortunately i left my ladder golf and my Jarts up north at my cabin so i haven;t played in a while.

i set a reminder to watch the test and tune, but the listing was off and i missed it:mad: anyone BCMers make an appearance?

i set a reminder to watch the test and tune, but the listing was off and i missed it.

I DVR-ed it, sure the first episode will be replayed soon enough.
I think this was the first of 5, all filmed the same day at GLD.

It was ok, could be better if they moved along quicker, I think
you actual see like 6 different cars run over the 1/2hr show.
Rich Retardsen ask's that you e-mail him, vote on if you want
to see it as a weekly show. That pilot episode was followed by
another called "blow it up", they hot lap a couple 9 second
cars back to back to see who dies first. Being its all about drag
racing and winter is long up here Im e-mailing that I liked them
a lot............beats Nascar :o

We go with a group and rent a cottage in Lakewood, WI. It's kind of North of Shawano.

I also missed Test and Tune!! But now I set it to DVR and hopefully it catches the repeats. I was sitting 3rd row so hopefully got on camera. :goof
