We prove that a large class of random juggling patterns has ergodic behaviour.  With geometric throw distributions we obtain explicit formulae for the equilibrium distributions along with natural limit formulae involving q-analogues. We also cover virtual models involving antimatter.

This is joint work with Alexander Engström.
