Dodgeball

If you’re an adult who misses the cycle of triumph and humiliation of middle school gym class, there's good news: dodgeball is back! You can make new friends—and maybe a few enemies—with Tokyo Dodgeball Friendship Club. The club organizes games weekly. Unlike middle school, you can grab a beer afterward with the person who just tagged you in the face.
