Doing Sports on Drugs

[Mammon]

I was wondering if anyone knew of someone who'd played sports on drugs. I once saw a friend of mine eat a loads of magic mushrooms and then play football. He ran about like a nutter, scored a goal and then was sick on the sidelines and couldn't play anymore because he felt so ill. It was pretty funny to watch.

SWIM once played football drunk and stoned. He was so shit the other players made him go off. Bastards.

So, ever played sports while off your head?

[PingoTango]

SWIM has played table tennis after taking quarter of a gram of K up each nostril. That was fun.

He also frequently goes bowling or plays pool stoned, do they count as sports?

[chillinwill]

SWIM would always play baseball after smoking some bud....He has also played while robotripping which didn't go so well and while drunk which was a total disaster

SWIM for years used to smoke pot before going to sparring class in kenpo karate. In fact it got to the point where he just preferred to be high while sparring than not.

Yeah, some guys can smoke weed and then do loads of activity; SWIM can't - it makes him really tired and lazy. Some of SWIM's mates smoke all the time and it doesn't seem to slow them down at all. Lucky bastards.

Well SWIM always enjoyed it and was naturally good at the sport. However SWIM may have performed better without it. SWIM will never know.

SWIM has played football (soccer) under the influence of mescalin cactus, Peruvian Torch brew to be precise. Not really a competitive game, just a kick around between friends. It doesn't seem to have any impact on reaction time and ball control although SWIM didn't fancy exerting too much energy because mescaline brew leaves the stomach in a pretty fragile state, much like eating mushrooms.

My friend plays roller hockey a few times a week, and has trouble making it through the game in peace if he doesnt smoke a joint on the way to the rink. He enjoys playing (minimal contact/no open ice checking) on the comedown of LSD, if it hasnt been an exhausting experience. He says whenever he hits the bench in between 2 minute sprint sessions on the rink he has a few minutes to take it all in, catch his breath, and enjoy the revived visuals.

SWIM has been skateboarding almost half of his life. Currently he is on day 2 for wd from opiates but for the last few months, he would wake up every morning with mild wd (mild but still unpleasant) and think "no skboarding 2day" . he then he would do a little heavier morning dose of oxycod. + 1 gravity bong rip...get on computer and as swim watched a sk8video he would get amped to hit the park up (near smim's) house.

Swim would smoke a cig on the way there in his car and get out feeling GrrrrEAT. A little more egotistical than usual might i add =D Sk8 the park for an hour or 2..or 3 and saw things with a diffrnt 'insight' i guess you could say. progressed in ways like never before, as this was SWIM's first time having an ample supply of what he had plus a house all to himself no worries but still a promising near future. total freedom so he did this for months on end

SWIM has recently thought about it and made a choice, tapered, and (now) stopped almost all together. SWIM stopped for the same reason he had been enjoying it so much in the first place. SWIM was offered something by someone he knew.

..Leaving the country to study abroad!barce

Yeah, my mate actually was playing quite well on the shrooms (he certainly had a lot of energy) before he was sick. It still cracks me up to think of his face after he'd chucked.

He was like, "I dunno about shrooms and football, mate. I don't think it really works.", classic.

[norcolepsy]

shrooms and competitive sports? and performed WELL? those must've came from some not-so-potent strains. Fucking around with some mates is one thing but playing competitively as for a college or something of the nature, no way. while shrooms may exponentially expand some of the thought processes, one's physical coordination is a joke. probably worse then when one is shitfaced drunk.

although this is when consuming 3-4 grams (non-tolerant). perhaps it could be more physically enhancing at a lower dose.

Actually I was reading one time about armies in ancient times taking some form of mushroom. Either psilocybin or amanita muscaria to make them fight better. But i forget all about it.

[Rhin]

When SWIM was in highschool he would smoke a couple bowls before going to PE and he would be great at sports. Weed makes him more aware when it comes to sports and more competitive.

To much can be bad though so if you decide to do a sport while high don't smoke to much unless your just messing around.

There is an old notion implying that Nordic vikings would ingest amanita muscaria mushrooms before entering battle, though this has long been regarded as a misguided interpretation of shamanic employment of these mushrooms.

[Ontherooftops]

When he was younger swim used to rock climb competitavely. Much of the sport is pain endurance, ignoring a bleeding hand, ignoring an aching muscle, and staying chill as hell in despite threat of serious injury.

He would smoke sometimes before practice or competitions, and these were the only times he was detrimentally afraid of heights. A threshold dose of oxycodone though would give him a terrific advantage and make for a great time.

There was also a girl on his team who liked climbing on MDMA and always did pretty well under its influence.

soccer/futbol and marijuana + redbull

seriously...SWIM had total vision of the field as a center mid...perfect recipe he made a lot of his friends try and they agreed. then again it was indoor soccer, outdoor used to get swim drained mentally rather quick.

like i said in last post, OC's for skateboarding+weed +redbull..no fear, no pain nothing...swim would forget all about the opiate until he sat down to chill for a sec n the feeling would overwhelmingly remind himmmmm (THIS IS NOT NORMAL) haaa swim obv has a passion for using substances to improve the quality of his life and is fascinated by how many advantages there are to discover!

[Mammon]

For what it's worth, the guy who took shrooms and played footie had about 20 normal English ones. He only played for about 20 minutes, but he'd taken them about 40 minutes before playing. Basically, as the game started he started to come up.

This doesn't surprise SWIM - he once played some of the best pool ever when coming up off shrooms. The guys he was with couldn't believe some of the shots he was playing. Once the whole thing got going, though, playing pool was the least of his troubles.

[psyche]

Volleyball 4 hours into a mild mushroom trip in a college group. Playing was really smooth and easy and SWIM had endless energy. He is very experienced player, though.

Cannabis and squash. Game is more interesting, the ball and the walls tell a story while the game goes on. Game isn't as aggressive though, but more like playing around.

GBL and motocross. Now this propably can't be recommended, but SWIM says it's an amazing combo. The best thing is the energy and determination GBL gives to handle the big bike roughly enough and give it more space. It's not so much about daring more, but having more control. It's great for big hills.

LSD and football, kicking with friends. When time stops existing and the ball can read your mind, it gets really entertaining and easy.

Swim every once in a while smokes weed and then goes on a run. He used to do track and field, and still trains. He's also gone on a run while robotripping; both were fun.

One day he played basketball on 15mgs of hydrocodone (no tolerance). It's a funny thing. Swim says you don't FEEL any different while on hydrocodone, but you DO have delayed reaction times. He actually ended up breaking his left index finger, and tearing a ligament in his right ring finger. Another player smashed into his (outstretched and rigid) fingers (he was going for the ball), on two seperate occassions. Swim said he doesn't think it would have happened if he wasn't on the hydrocodone, lol.

[Brainreaver]

SWIM longboards stoned all the time. Back when SWIM was straightedge he used to paintball a lot, but it got too expensive, he intends on taking some bad ass stimulants
and trying it again

[pride345]

Not exactly playing sports, but SWIM (during the holidays) regularly goes to the gym, stoned off Cannabis, nodding off opium (or codeine, either of the two), or on the comedown from (mephedrone - dislikes doing this however).

SWIM does it because he can also go to the health suite (which includes a sauna, steam rom and jaccuzzi where SWIM can relax). That is after a workout. Excuse SWIM, SWIM is nodding good now!)
