If it want raining, we played king if the hil but our hill was a tractor tired buried 1/4 of the way into the ground, tackle football until they took our football away then it became tackle frisbee or tackle hacky sack or tackle wad of paper etc, tag on the big monkey bars, suicide (like wall ball mixed with dodgeball), or tether ball.

If it rained we played man or mouse, pencil break, 4 or 2 square, or had an arm wrestling tourney.

All that until we discovered girls weren’t ickey. Then games changed.

e’d play football at the table using a triangle shaped folded piece of paper. You could kick field goals by holding and thumping the triangle through the goal post made by your opponents hands.


Basketball with coins. Spin the coin and catch it between your thumbs, then try to shoot it into a basket your opponent made with his hands.

No Brakes.

We got 3 or four guys together, linking arms across shoulders. Would walk through the playground chanting "No brakes! No brakes!" Kids either got out of the way or got trampled.

kanicks, tackle the man with the ball, as youngsters.

once puberty hit we just sat around noting what girls were growing boobs and especially those not yet wearing bras.

No mention of "Mercy" yet. I was great at that because of a very high tolerance for pain and need to win.

All of the above… haven’t seen anyone mention Knock Out

Basketball game where you formed a line at the top of the key. If the player behind you scored first you were out

When it first came out, about 10 of us boys would siit at a table and play some sort of battle royal with the Pokemon TCG. Energy cards weren't used, you just drew your pokemon, put them face up, and blasted the shite out of whoever you wanted with whatever number was on it.

Apparently this thing is called a "gaga pit" and is a weird Israeli version of dodgeball, but neither we nor the teachers seemed to know that. Ours had sand in the bottom and really just served as a UFC octagon. Kids would basically mosh, wrestle, or fight while the lone teacher monitoring us was distracted. Used to Goldberg spear the shite out of my classmates in that thing.



We also had this, which apparently is called "Funnel Ball". No one ever seems to remember this shite when I bring it up, which makes since because it sucked
