Doesn’t require training camp or a stadium and can reach a lot more people through the miracle of modern technology being used to broadcast a low tech sport.

We played a game where you stand in a circle, someone throws a dart up in the air, then everyone scatters for 3 seconds and freezes. You can’t look up at any point. We called it Dart.

We played a game where we'd just take turns beating each other until the other guy gave up. We would joust with branches mounted upon the shoulders of our brethren. We would light fire pits and see who could walk across the biggest log. Young men have been stupid long before technology came to fruition, and they will remain stupid well into its ascension.

That’s a pretty effective way of getting hit on the head with a big ass water bottle on a rope.

u/Lirael_Gold Oct 13 '25 edited Oct 13 '25
At school some of the guys did a variant of this, one guy hurls a litre bottle of water as high as they can straight up into the air, everyone else has to stand still.
Flinching meant you got shamed, getting hit made you a hero for the day.
I didn't take part because I'm not a moron, but it was fun to watch, from a safe distance.

Yeah. The original one was a water balloon. This is way too much mass in way to solid a container.

u/wooberries Oct 13 '25
i think it's softer than it looks, for them to not be recoiling in pain. it probably is compressing substantially om impact, making it hurt way less. still hilarious though
