Human Foosball
From the table into the trees

By Bob Carver

Foosball--or table football--can be traced back to the original patent in the 1890s, according to Wikipedia. Aleandro Finistierre wanted to make a table form of soccer that would be fun for physically challenged children who could not play actual soccer. He commissioned Francisco Altuna to develop the first game. The table game has grown so much that there are competitions and national and international tournaments today.
