We played smear the queer.
Everybody got in a circle and ball was tossed to some random poor soul.
All hell broke loose.

Prob a game that would be frowned upon in 2017 America.
Unless of course you are lucky enough to still live in good ole baw land.

kids still play it, but there is a less offensive name for it. Can't remember what they call it.

We played throw up tackle. Same concept as yours except the ball wasnt thrown to anyone. It was more of a jump ball scenario then run for your life.

I remember having a huge group playing this as kids. Good times.

I've seen kids cut like Barry Sanders playing smear the queer.
