That's exactly what happened for one Scottish footballer this weekend.
In the West of Scotland Football League Premier Division on Saturday, Troon hosted Ayrshire rivals Largs Thistle at Portland Park.
But this wasn't a regular Portland Park... the ground was being absolutely BATTERED by high winds, as gusts reached almost 30mph.
So much so that when Troon goalkeeper Dale Burgess was taking goal kicks, his own defenders were having to clear the ball!

It was the away side took the lead through Will Sewell in the first half, before Callan Veitch levelled before the break.
Sewell restored the visitors' advantage just after the hour mark but by this point, Troon were now playing WITH the wind.
With 11 minutes to go, up stepped new signing Luke Watt to take a corner.
The defender only signed for the Seasiders two weeks ago from Cumnock but was about to have an immediate impact.

Troon were chasing the winner and in the 87th minute they won another corner.
Watt went over to take it and, to the absolute amazement of everyone in the ground, he scored AGAIN.
He sent the ball into the box and it evaded everyone and swerved into the back of the net.
The goal gave Troon a prcious three points as they try to maintain their spot as best-of-the-rest behind runaway leaders Clydebank.
Watt, who started his career at Motherwell and played seven times for the Fir Park side in the Premiership before turning out for Airdrie, East Fife and Stranraer among others, said: "To set the scene, in the first half we were playing against the wind and our goalkeeper is taking goal kicks and I was playing centre-half to start with.
"I'm having to header his goal kicks.
"The ball was going over my head and then coming back onto my head, so I'm having to try and clear my lines.
"So it wasn't necessarily conducive to a good game of football but obviously conducive to some nice corners."
Watt, 27, revealed that a punter challenged him to try and repeat his feat for the second corner.
"There was a guy standing right beside the corner flag," he told BBC Sport Scotland.
"And as I ran over, he said 'Same again'.

"I thought to myself, I'm not expecting it to happen again but then it does.
"After that it was just kind of bedlam with the celebrations."
