Is this the way to take tennis to the masses?

Why not? :)

It's weird, but it's a weird world.

that would be amazing!

have light up lines, land light balls. seeing shouldnt be a problem, although disputing line calls could prove tricky roflmao

Has anyone played moonlight bowling? that works!

Yeah I played MIDNIGHT bowling, but there was light! roflmao I seem to bowl better when drunk! roflmao

I think it is a good idea, i mean afeterall they have big night matches at the USO. As long as they dont; make it all like that, then fine. I often curse when the light fades at Wimby and it's day over, especially half way through a match that i wont; be abel to see finish, or after a day when play has been disrupted by rain. So extendign it to night time woudl get mor eviewers over here.

I love the moonlight bowling - there is a video clip of myself somewhere on youtube of me doing a ridiculous slide after one of my bowls roflmao
