Betoota locals are in a state of shock today, after learning that two people engaged in a discussion that may somehow be beneficial to the human race, while at an indoor cricket facility overnight.
In a world first, the Betoota Flight Path District Indoor Cricket And Futsol Facility (BFPDICAFF) became the first sport venue of its kind to host a worthwhile conversation about something that wasn’t absolute shit talk.
Indoor cricket is a variant of and shares many basic concepts with cricket. The game is most often played between two teams each consisting of six or eight players, and is viewed as a way of killing time during the evenings for people who either can’t get enough of playing grade cricket all day on Saturday – or alternatively the rare specimens who want to play competitive cricket without the burden of the harsh elements of a suburban park.
With a canteen that is still selling Killer Pythons at 1997 prices, the Betoota Flight Path District Indoor Cricket And Futsol Facility is in now way a hindrance to society – but up until today – it definitely wasn’t of any use.
The two people behind this allegedly meaningful conversation, both middle management types who are somehow mediocre enough to play ‘lower grade’ indoor cricket, even managed to surprise themselves with their contribution to the world.
Onlookers gasped as both contributors began treading water, after realising that their discussion was getting far too deep for their surroundings: A 38-year-old timber-floored community sports complex with yellowing lights, that exists purely so grown adults and awkward teenagers can stand around watching a bowler bowl the ball to a batsmen who must score runs.
“Anyway” says one of the punters, in an effort to bring the conversation back to a more appropriate standard of pointless dribble.
“Enough of that”
“Have you ever watched Sons Of Anarchy?”
