My stomach is quivering just looking at that (but I would love to go there once)

This isn't real. It can't be. I mean, come on. Tell me it isn't real.

Yep. Here's the building. Tennis is upper left.

But, uh, no way... I mean chess, sure. Croquet, maybe. But in tennis, people run out of bounds all the time. And what of tennis balls striking people down on the ground? I just don't believe it.

HOLY SHIT -- it IS true: http://www.snopes.com/photos/sports/skytennis.asp

But at least the close up photos show a net to catch balls. I hope the net is strong enough to old a person, too.

On another note; Andre Agassi is sexy ;)

But how sexy would he be splattered all over the sidewalk by the hotel?

Guess depends how he splats. (eww!)
