I tell them to look up what freestyle has become, after that they usually don't have any questions

Tell them the simplest truth:  tricks with a football.  Very cool, very difficult tricks.

I use the same technique, I tell them that it's tricks with a football, and a pretty awkward silence is followed. When I show them a video they're pretty much amazed and positive. I've encountered very little negative responses or reactions to freestyle, when people actually know what it is. The only negative response I get is when people think I'm a football player failure and that I suck dick.

i say, welcome to freestyle football, I hope you enjoy it.

I say, everyone juggled a ball as a kid, we're taking this to the next level, and then a level after that.

then I ask for money.
