Bubble bump soccer

Bubble bump soccer, or bubble bump football, is a sport based on soccer, or association football, altered only by having the players wear a large air-filled donut around their heads, torsos and hips.[1][2] The donuts are shaped like spheres, and the air within them is under just enough pressure that players would bounce off one another, if they attempted to body-check one another.
