Funky Stadium

Funky Stadium is a Battle Stage of Mario Kart Wii. As per the name, Funky Kong's face and logos are found throughout the stadium, as well as some "groovy" or "funky" music in spirit of his personality. The stadium itself is quite large, and there are several ramps and boosters around, making motorcycles a popular choice when battling here and a place where characters can perform stunts with either motorcycles or karts, including the first part of the battle, where the characters all drive down a ramp with boost pads, and jump off another boost ramp, and trick into the arena. The stage itself is popular among Wi-Fi online muiltiplayer matches.

Course Layout
The stage is the largest of all Battle Courses in Mario Kart Wii. It is a gigantic arena lined with blue half-pipe ramps, to perform stunts. There are a few gaps in the halp-pipe ramping where wooden slopes are, which allow players to drive into the stands, and grab a few items. There are also a couple of sand pits scattered around, that have item boxes in the center of them. These slow down movement, but characters can still drift over them just the same. There are 3 structures in this stage, each with many opportunuties to perform tricks, and grab floating items.

Structure 1: The structure lies at one end of Funky Stadium. It has a half-square sticking off to the side, lined with boost ramping. There are items floating inches above the ramp, making them easy to grab. Using this jump can take you over a wall in the middle of the structure. On the other side, there is a large almost vertical ramp, which leads to a flat top, with a tight knot of item boxes floating above it. These can only be accessed by tricking off the ramp. On the 2 remaining sides, there is simply a small piece of half-pipe ramping on each side, each with 2 items floating above them.

Structure 2: This structure is located in the center of the stage, directly under the floating barrel with Funky Kong's logo on the sides. It is the largest of the three, and simply consists of a large boost ramp on each of the 4 sides. Each one leads clear over the structure. During the jump, the player will reach a large group of floating item boxes, arranged in an X shape. At the bottom, there is a tunnel, leading to either side. This can only be entered on 2 of the 4 sides. It is also worth noting that if the player does not perform a trick on the ramp, they may land on the top of the structure, where they can grab some items there, and use the boost pads to drive down the slope at high speed.

Structure 3: The 3rd structure in the battle course lies at the opposite end of the arena from Structure 1. It is simply a wavy piece of wood, with item boxes floating at the end of each wave. Players can trick over the waves, the they can also use the boost pads on the tips of each wave to trick over the wall supporting the wavy wood. There is no other side to this structure, unlike the others.

Trivia

 * The tunnel in Structure 2 has a line of 3 coins in it during Coin Battles.
 * In addition, the tunnel makes a good hiding spot for a sneak attack, since CPUs never enter it. (e.g. The player has a red shell, and if they don't want to risk vulnerability to attacks in the open, they enter the tunnel. They then throw it at any character on the opposing team, who passes by the entrance).
 * However, though CPUs never enter the tunnel, red, or blue spiny shells still do, leaving the player not totally invulnerable inside there.
