The ball's density also varies, but players don't learn the value until after choosing their raquets. The infamous 'bowling ball table tennis' region of the parameter space often leads to equipment damage.

Your can recreate something like that as a dinner with friends/family, more fun when there's a whole bunch of people!

The menu is written in gibberish, three courses, people at the table choose an utensil, a dish and a meal for each course, only the people in the kitchen know what each item on the menu is.

Good luck eating spaghetti out of a coffee mug with a knife ๐Ÿ˜‚

Why would you ever choose a coffee mug and a knife as your dish and utensil? That doesn't work for any food... And a deep plate/wide bowl + fork would work for basically everything.

Because you would not be aware of what Dish and Utensil you choose until you got it

Oh, they're on the menu in gibberish too, I see. Sounds fun.
