Dream: Sports Politics

In a bit that I can't remember, I've met up with this power hungry couple. We go into a stadium, where they're going to introduce me to a sport that they've invented. We go into the stadium and the husband goes into the stands one way and moves towards these barricades in the seating. The barricades are evenly spaced and as he reaches each one, he kicks a ball onto the field, where a game is going on. The ball is somewhere between a soccerball and a basketball, but it acts more like a baseball.

I walk with the wife around the other side, sometimes, and sometimes I'm with the husband. They're explaining to me about how they invented this sport and it's done really well for them financially. They're generally repulsive with their excitement about having manipulated the world and their stereotypically nouveau riche attitudes (they show off all of their possession in the dream, such as the wife's fur coat and the husband's really expensive watch).

I laughed when I read this dream; it was really easy to imagine this couple's mannerisms. I think it's interesting that their obnoxious behavior takes place in a sports setting; fans sometimes get so involved in their teams that they end up doing really stupid and obnoxious things.

This feels so much like a dream that I would have. I love dreams where a new type of device or system or game is invented, their obnoxious attitude sounds absolutely histerical!

This sport reminds me of "quiditch" from Harry Potter. Could be? Was it you who was knitting a scarf in Gryfendor colors? (Sorry, I just screwed up all those names lol).
