That was the name of the game.....Toss the ball untill the "Queer" got it...And that guy ran around like a putz until he gave up the ball.

I credit that game to makin me a tougher guy. Certainly taught me how to break tackles.

Did you call it differnt things?

We called it the same thing. If you threw the ball away before you got tackled, you got it anyway.

Oh yeah baby.......of course we can't now cause it might offend a fag somewhere. That game most certainly would toughen you up!

I owe most of my fractures to that game.

My personal favorite was "Bull In The Ring" - you knew a pile driving ass whooping was only about 7 strides away coming at you full speed.

ETA - I think BITR is outlawed now in most states. Too many hits in the back that left kids paralyzed. Those were the slow ones.........

We weren't PC in 3K towns in coastal NC in the 70's.

I'm here to help. I'm totally laughing. I thought it was just us. We used to beat the piss out of each other.

I drove a chick into the ground once....REg football...The guys were all over me, and, I was like....."What? She had the ball!"

I was young.

Bitch wasn't going to catch on on me.

I used to throw the ball at kids if they threw it up before they got tackled.

They learnt quick after a few headshots with the football

played all the time, the hot girl down the street would aways kick our asses, at the time she was a gymnest and ran faster that we did. Bull in the ring is how we determined who would start my freshmen year of football.

I hated that. My STQ community, it was verbotten to throw up the ball. You got tackled hard if you tossed up the ball.

same name. ball thrown up in the air, whoever caught it ran around until brought down by EVERYONE else. Most fun I ever had getting my ass kicked. I dont think I have seen anyone play that game in 20 years.

What was even better/worse was when the "queer" got caught with the football by somebody and everyone quickly gathered around to pounce on the all-too-suspecting victim and while doing so we were all screaming "NIGGER PILE." Not that we even had a clue as to what we were saying.

There was no politically correct mindset when you were 8 yrs. old in the 70's.

Yea, right up to the point we broke some kids ankles.

Then we got dodgeball banned as well in our school, it didnt take long for the rest of the state to decide it wasn't a good idea too.

We had a pretty hard class, we fought to win, and destroy the enemy! Sucks if you made the mistake of playing against us

Smear the queer was a classic, use to love playin it. Not sure if kids still play it or not, "queer" may not be politcally correct in grade school now

Of course i played it..

but my favorite game was when it got cold out and a 10x10 pad of blacktop at the bottom of a hill would ice up. It didn't have a name, but 2 people would run on the grass leading up to it, and slide accross the ice at each other creating spectacular head on collisions. Then some girl broke her collarbone and they started salting the ice.
