re: In the Old Days We had Dirt Clod Wars.

We had wars with everything. Dirt, BB guns, bottle rockets, Roman candles, you name it. My Dad knew even if they told us not to we would still do it when they weren’t around so he brought home a shite ton of safety glasses from work. That was the only rule you had to wear the safety glasses or that was your arse if you got caught.

Also tackle football with the over developed athletic 12 year old girl across the street. Everyone used great two handed form tackling around the chest technique when she played.
