Dodgeball
George English Park, 1101 Bayview Drive, Fort Lauderdale, www.ci.ftlaud.fl.us/cityparks
The following is a true underdog story. Last year, a loose group of dodgeball enthusiasts sneaked into Fort Lauderdale's Holiday Park to play late-night games in the outdoor hockey rink. Police eventually chased them off. When the group started playing at the park during the day, a park employee told them they couldn't use the hockey rink. The dodgeballers are now playing without fear of intimidation by The Man at George English Park. While the players are friendly, the game is not. There are few better ways to release stress and aggression than by throwing a big red ball at someone as hard as you can. Prospective dodgeballers can e-mail
