That’s a variation of “kill the carrier” or “smear the queer”

We called it Kill Ball. But we played it with a bouncy ball off a wall.

I promise you that in uptown NOLA in the sixties it was called "Smear the queer."

Edited to add that at our age and in that time of innocence we didn't even know what a homosexual was. At least I didn't.

We called it “Kill-a-man,” down here in D’ville.

“Pitch up and smear.” No kickoff, just throw the ball up (pitch up) and whoever caught it would run from everyone else who tried to tackle (smear) him. After a tackle, throw the ball up again. Repeat until someone got hurt bad enough to quit or it was time for supper.

Forgot about rushing the QB after 3 Mississippi. You'd say it as fast as you could.

At this shitty school I attended for a year they played a version where once you got tackled they’d try to stick a finger in your butt.
