We would hunt snakes all summer and put them in aquariums on the side of my buddies house. Had about 300 of them at one point. The coolest snake we caught was a Hog Nose.....would flare its neck out like a cobra to try and scare you but would never bite..... Made the local TV news.

We used to drink from the water hose, stayed away from home from dusk until dawn and got our arse whipped if we came home late. We would cut peoples grass for money and were not allowed inside unless given permission by the parents. You know....things kids don't do nowadays. This generation is a weak arse generation...

Still drink out of water hose.
Use to take black rubber garbage cans and place in the center of the lane. Hard to see black on black paved roads. We would hide in the woods and hear brakes squeal for only .3 seconds and then...boom. No one ever wrecked thank God.

Sneaking the neighborhood girls out of their bedroom windows when I was 11-14.. it's one skill I somehow I got worse at with experience, and they got better at sneaking me in.

we used to play "the game"

basically 3-on-3 no rules tackle football in a 10x30 strip of grass

nerf fights were underrated

Wires across the road, flame ball-tennis ball in rubbing alcohol,
Driving around at 13 at night, water skiing at night drunk as shite

Very lucky to be alive

I rode go carts and got chased by levee board cops all over Lake Vista, where life was hard hard hard.

Chlorine charges, paintball guns, and running around at night acting like special ops soldiers (never hurt anyone or vandalized)... Hanging onto a rope for dear life riding a skateboard while a friend drove their gas scooter (I don't remember what they're called)... Playing with fire ants and bee hives... Riding the two person plastic rowboat with four of us trying to keep balance haha... Fishing... Rollerblading like it was cool. Good times

Also, one time a dry dirt field turned into a mudhole after a rainstorm and someone thought it'd be a good idea to start throwing mud at each other on our walk home. When we got to our friend's house we said, "We got attacked by seniors." (We were freshmen) Friend's mom got possessed by the devil himself until we got scared and told her we were just kidding. We got some cookies after her sigh of relief

Well before paintball we had BB wars in the woods. We were supposed to pump the BB gun only one time. frick that shite we pumped them at less ten times. Hurt like a motherfricker if you got hit. The stupid stuff we did back in the day.

So you knew Jerry Sandusky?

We had BB guns wars, set the woods on fire, throwed eggs at cars and people, stole watermelons and get in fights. I was hell on wheels growing up. My mother said if I had been the first one there wouldn't have been anymore kids.

We were freaking hoodlums. Set dumpsters on fire, set bundles of grass on fire and threw in street gutters to smoke out the street, tie stuffed animals in trees and swung them out across road in front of cars at night. That was one of my favorites. Shoot out street lights with slingshots. Make tape traps with coins or fender washers on each end and put across road. When cars hit that and the tape and coins wrapped up on tire made an awful racket slapping the car going 30 Can't believe I was never arrested.

Haha, that's great. We sort of did the same thing with our paintball guns. Supposedly we were all set at 300 feet per second.......

Meh, some of us just have crazier stories than others. I don't think any of these stories are psychotically dangerous though.

Actually some of the stuff is plain dumb now that I read over some more responses

Those cassette tapes were like magic. Pull the tape out of them and string across the road that shite would reflect off the headlights on cars at night. Nothing like the sounds of cars & trucks locking up brakes at night. Next thing you know here comes the police scattered like roaches when the lights cut on. Ran into the woods and hid. Nothing like growing up in small towns in La.
