Wiffleball '79 (original version)

[TownshipLax08]

Pretty good quality for the late 70's

[MiravetFilms]

@TownshipLax08 We shot it in 2009 on 16mm. :)

[kellbros2]

my plan to for the 2012 year, construct the best wiffleball field ever.

[Star9d7de2]

that black guy was a boss

[brendonroberts3]

60000th view

[tdwiffle]

Which one owns the field?

[studdmuffin2626]

i dont get how that ginger spends all summer on the feild with out a shirt on and isnt burnt????

[ookland81]

I loved the video. While I never played this game, the clothing and hair cuts and just over all feeling of freedom. I want to drink beer I will drink beer. I want a piss then just have one over there. It was a magic time.

[thebestshuffler100]

[hfunk327]

[mcox14567]

@Azagthoth12 what does it mean?? never heard it (born in 82)

[Azagthoth12]

@mcox14567 It means "mental retard"

[petephils]

this is why I wish i grew up in the 70's

[xDaRealistx7]

that dudes has a fly afro



[chiliburns]

Freakin' epic! I love it! We need to collaborate on a feature film. Search chiliburns here in YouTube to see Wiffle Ball Legends.

[Sprtzfnjr]

Damn, I wish this was like an hour and a half long... looks like there is some real potential for this to be a really funny ass movie judging by this short film.

[EricSevereid]

'79 - Last Pirates team to win the Series.

Lucy Lager or Iron City? The debate rages.....

[wrestlevision]

@EricSevereid Iron City all the way!

[RapperJoe2000]

cool

[steven11underwood]

"shut up you fckn pandsi"

[shootwithagun]

@steven11underwood pansy.

[Wiffler13]

Mechanics were a fucking joke back then

[Chavezoid]

Back then they were forced just to throw in a stereotype black dude. If this video were from today, they would have to have stereotypical latin dudes, and asian, and at least 2 black dudes...oh...and girls. So hypocritically false!

[profile1]

reminds me of that bad news bears movie.

[meetthematts]

Johnny Titinsky's house! We like this one... Excellent. Taping the bat is for sissies, though.

[EasternBear]

I absolutely love the nods during this blast down memory lane. Carlton Fisk was mentioned, but there are also some great references to The Natural with a bit of humor thrown in.

[nowhereman136]

i dont know what it is but this is awesome. so favorited

[bgrich2003]

3:10 kid spits on himself lol.

[yogibear4091]

This has got to be the coolest vid on youtube. Mark Cuban should see this. He plays wiffleball in his mansion with his friends.

[fefeloved1]

what is the date of this?

new??

niice.

[horymski]

...one of the all-time losers in Wiffle ball history.

[09rockmusic]

Great hair styles!

[robertLpayne]

Nicely done.

[Rockchisler]

[gdwlwiffleball]

[ericou812]

[mloftin21]

Very well done. Well written, funny. And "the look" using 16mm film - nailed it. Kudos!

[MrJCG1]

This is the biggest load of crap ever. It's so far fetched. I mean, everybody knows there's no bunting in Wiffle Ball.

[MindOutrage]

1:40

[Repoman781]

Great Job! looks like it really is from the 80's

[SecureBurgerTown]

God, get the fuck over barefeet.

[rubenchago]

The hardest part of whiffle ball is telling your dad your gay (or a fag) XD

[Str1cker]

Sweet 'fro.

[rcx14rcx14]

Im desperate to know the song at the beginning, anyone know?

[gmac406]

Love this. Love the look, the old school Pirates helmet, love the script. Everything. Top notch video. C;mon and swing ya fag!

[Ranciddroog]

I really enjoyed it, great music, great feel, brings back good memories!

[MissM0]

'79 looks so fun wish i could have been there! but i don't know if i'd be able to see the game from the kitchen

[spencerpizza]

awesome fucking video

[BerkeleyBuilt]

[cottoncloth]

Loved it!

[mako17]

Noonan!

[SFFOOL76]

I saw this courtesy of Deadspin/ This is a seriously kick ass short movie. Thanks for making this!

[SeanOB43]

DEADSPIN!

/ Simmon'ds

[JordiScrubbings]

I never played wiffle ball on a field, always in a drive way with automatics and a lawn chair as a catcher. Interesting. Good movie though. Love the Carlton Fisk hop.

[Twiztedrage]

very good and much like the 70's

[dagomaddog52]

I'm not ashamed to admit I had tube socks and a Pirate helmet just like that--AWESOME!!!

[wickethewok]

Needs more cutoffs, but good otherwise.

[beadsman]

wow, they didn't even have girls to deal with back then. a prelapsarian eden indeed.

[Cllman96Rox246]

@beadsman they were in the kitchen in the old days now they're migrating into men's territory

[doverlin]

@beadsman Back then, we'd invite the girls to play and then take em skinny dipping later ;)

[graffitinest23]

@doverlin lmao you a liar. you know for a fact you had nothing but sausage fest. with which makes you a certified fag you fag

[doverlin]

@graffitinest23 nope, true story bro.

[GJMess]

Love it! Would love to see it get optioned for a feature-length, the world needs another good retro, Sandlot-style film. good luck guys.

[madthlv]

Excellent!

[WahdayStelow]

Besy video on youtube, no doubt.

[georgecostansa1]

Love it

[spelingnazi]

Spit Fail at 3:12

[HeroesofGrammar]

Sooooooooooooooooo gooooooood.!!

[PGASpellissy]

Hey you fags want to play some wiffleball?

[jamlegs2]

@PGASpellissy yeah

[jamlegs2]

This is beyond awesome.

[eclecticboogaloo]

At 2:37, the kid says "Noonan" to psyche him out, but Caddyshack came out in June of 1980. Either way, this film is awesome and it seems really, really authentic.

[bwag8008]

I played wiffleball back in the 70's, but we used to tape the ball up with electrical tape and use mits-- that way we could throw the thing much harder and it'd go much farther. It was a lotta fun, back on Long Island where I grew up. Cool vid!

[satyricrash]

I love this, great job.

[Joaquin3rd]

Love it man. I was born in "68" so I grew up in the 70s, Wiffleball, Nerf footballs, Hotwheels, my Green machine and Big wheel, Whamo, OP, Tube socks, Vans and my Toughskins from Sears, great memories!

[Kdmoo]

Mr. Sparkle says right on!

[Schnoogens]

This is awesome...I just got done playing wiffleball tonight! Well done.

[TheShawtime]

Great video dude, you really did the drama of the game justice!

[n8ccwa]

great job guys, this film rocks!

[NoTrend64]

Tube socks.  Awesome.

[UnicornSnuggler]

Come over and catch, you MR!

[mwellsdc]

I miss the shorts, the plastic batting helmets and drama that is whiffleball!

[Bullbaiter15]

Love the SF Helmet announcer! Kruk & Kuip better watch out. Luc_y Lager is delicious!
