Check this out...

Winter Music Conference week is upon us in Miami, and I am stoked for this event. (http://www.clubplanet.com/Articles/1683/CP-Previews--Clubs-DJs-and-Glow-in-the-Dark-Tennis--For-real)
"Launching for the first time in the US, Night Tennis hits Miami on March 22nd and 23rd. It’s a new concept that combines an “ultra-violet� tennis tournament, some of the worlds best DJs, and a neon fashion-feast…all in the dark....The court, net and balls along with the players shirts, skirts and shoes will be illuminated and fully UV reactive (black light). In between games, Gen Art and Julian Chang will showcase a fashion collection in the latest neon style."

Did somebody say glow in the dark balls? :D

The party is a sort of pre-party for the Sony Ericsson Open, a big tennis tournament here this week/end, but I really just want to check it out for the ooooh....aaaah factor, and to write about it afterwards.


Should be fun!

too bad they don't let just anyone go out there and play, looks a sight trippier than disco bowling...

Yes indeed, I agree. I thought the same thing. When I heard people talking about this in the bar the other nite, I was like "oooh, I wanna play!"

When I found it online, I was disappointed, to say the least, but still...somewhat intrigued.

That looks extremely fun. I love tennis, played for most of my life but never competitively.

12 beers > glow in the dark tennis. :D
