[edit] Danball & Wikipedia
When I was a teenager, in 1992, some friends and I invented a sport that, while goofy, was a lot of fun. We called it Danball. When the Internet and the World Wide Web came into common use in 1995, we started a Web site for the game. Almost overnight, the game was widely known beyond our small hometown of Anniston, Alabama.
As the years passed, we grew out of Danball, but it continued to live on the Web. In 2005 I stumbled across a reference to Danball in a Wikipedia entry on invented sport. Within minutes I'd written my first Wikipedia entry. Sadly, the article has since been deleted by other editors. Oh well. There are many references to the game still on the Web, but very little detailing the correct history. Thus, I've posted the truth about Danball here: http://myweb.cableone.net/jax42/danball-brief.htm
