Take the Neuroscientists Bowling, Take Them Bowling
Flip Phillips, posting as Bongoherbert on my flickr thread, issues the following brilliant challenge: combine bowling with aggressive recreational trans-cranial magnetic simulation (TMS):
I have the following idea: Functional Neuroscience Bowling. Each team wears specially designed TMS helmets. Knocking down pins activates magnets in other team’s helmets- the more pins the more f’ed up the other team gets. Look out for the motor strip!
Sort of like beer-pong, but for the CNS set.
What say you? My lab against yours!
My lab will need to borrow helmets, but we’re in.

OK- we’ll need new bowling shirts too. Last competitive keggling event I was in was after I worked on the Pixar bowling poster, back in the 80s. I don’t think that shirt will fit.
And no trying to psych us out with any of your ‘philosophy’ - “Is that really a 7-10 split? Or is it just in your mind mannn?”
White Russians are on me.
