Sports need to light up!

Ok, I haven't written on this blog in over a year, but today I have time and something I just want to share... so here goes...






Sports are sometimes visually boring to me. I think it would be so much more interesting to watch a sports game if there were lights and sounds that fit the game.

Let's take basketball first... How about we put lights on all the boundary lines. I mean, we embed them in the floor and then there's some kind of chip in the players sneakers and the lights will flash or sounded when a player steps over it. How about the back board? Wouldn't it be even more cool if it lit up and played sounds when the ball went through it...and then a bigger flashing light display and sound if it was a slam dunk... How much fun would it be to turn the lights off in an arena, and watch t players in uniforms that lit up? It would be like a live video game with flashes of light and sound. Then there's the ball, it should light and sound with every bounce and then a different sound and light for every catch etc....

Now apply this to every sport... can't you see it in football, baseball, hockey, soccer, golf, etc... It would be fun to watch and hear! There are so many visual elements that could be added to the game to make it different and cool to watch.  The technology to do this is already here, it's just no one has done it yet.

So, there it is... my idea to make sports more visually fun to watch.

What do you think?

(To my Husband....No.  I'm not kidding.)
