Yes, foosball (called futbolín in Spanish) originated in Europe (possibly in Spain), and the true Catalan foosball table is worlds apart from typical American foosball tables. Just compare these two photos and you’ll have no doubt.
Where is all this foosball coming out of nowhere, you ask? Well, I just got back from a great weekend at Hume Lake with the high school group from my church where we focused on being SOLID men of God, ate tons of meat, played hours of foosball, paintball, and Family Business… it was a blast! Pictured above are some of the guys who helped me re-learn the value of having some plain old fun.

Foosball is the bomb-diggity, as I believe Matthew Husky might say. Plus Amon Tobin is amazing.
