Knokkers is one of those rarefied athletic endeavors that ’s nifty than the substance of its part . And when the parts in interrogative sentence are jumbo - sized billiards and bowling , that ’s really saying something .
Invented by former coop paladin Steve Wienecke , Knokkers could n’t be more simple ; the rule are the same as 8 - ball pool , except you roll the 6 - pound sterling balls instead of using 8 - foot long clue . The original set , seen here , was a project - intensive installing in Wienecke ’s Fredericktown , Missouri backyard . But he ’s ferment on a portable edition — let in 6 lbf. balls that can stand up to the rigors of perpetual hit — and plans to distribute it to bar with large backyards and capricious patrons .
Even if it takes a while to get to your neighborhood , well , that ’s just more time for you to conceive up those sexually revelatory paronomasia that defines a true Knokkers fable . [ KnokkersviaRural Missouri MagazineviaOhGizmo ! ]
