Weird Dream #18,437

 Another incredibly weird dream .....

This one was at least based in something I can understand, once loved and have many fond memories of. Sunday evenings of pickup basketball with friends and acquaintances. Taking place on 98-99% of the Sunday evenings over 20-30 years (and an occasional Saturday or Monday) we would gather, share stories and spread bullshit while we warmed up, shoot free throws to form teams and hoop until we had had enough which would generally work out as 6:00-8:30pm. I eventually came to think of it as "geezer ball" as most of us were close in age with the exception of guys bringing their teenage and 20-something sons and daughters along. We all grew older together. There was a core group of 8-10 regulars, another group of 10 or so semi-regulars and a plethora of random others who might get an invite. The numbers almost always worked out so we could have one game going with a few others who had, "next" status.  

This was the setting for my latest dream that transitioned into the 'outer limits.' It became weird in some of the people who showed up and things that happened. Like a current college basketball player dropping in to play and a bulldozer somehow getting inside the gym and digging up a section of the court while we scrambled to grab a rebound at the other end of the floor.

There was more strangeness and oddities that played out, but it's faded into the gloaming after a few hours of being awake.
