Synesthesia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synesthesia

Numbers have specific colors!  Musical notes float through space in specific patterns!  No it's not a psychedelic drug experience.  This is how synesthesiasts perceive the world. Watched the PBS Nova program on the brain last night which had a segment on this neurologic condition.  It's not just limited to music & math, and research is already going on as to how it may be beneficial to non synesthesiasts in learning.

There has to be athletes that experience this on the playing field.
