Street ball - baseball on the street with a small bat and broken tennis ball.

If someone yelled, "Car!" we cleared the street to let it pass.

We had an old gaslight filled with wasps. You line up with a bat. The 1st guy hits it once. Then the second guy goes. You are out when you get stung.

Fun....huh. I don't know why that didnt catch on.

Rock ball. Used to throw rocks at each other. It was always fun till someone got hurt, accidentally.

....did that with rocks, dirt clods, rotten potatoes, walnuts, rotten duck eggs, cow pies just to name a few, my cousin got a busted retina from a plastic bowling pin once, we all got in trouble over that one...

It’s a carefree existence when consequences never cross your mind. The joys of irresponsibility are always a tightly inflated bubble, every stupid idea just makes perfect sense. The nostalgia.
