YLYL possibly going to hell edition.

Part of the fun of that game was the sound they made when they stuck into the ground and the fact that they didn't bounce.

You knew when the 2 wheeled Croquet kit was "rolled out", the countdown began, a "ticking timebomb". lol
A medieval, back to the stone age kit for kids. lol
Wire, wooden balls, and a fucking club on a stick.
For everyone!
What could go wrong?

Hmmm.... Deep contusions to ones foot when you miss judge the MEGA swing to send your nearest competition some place far far away pops to mind.

I don't remember ever finishing a croquet game. And we played a bit. It always was a scatter ball match that occassionally devolved into a thunderdome type battle of 'I don't think so Cousin Dipshit'

Oi... You talk about some watered down bullshit. There is absolutely NO risk at all of getting a pretty nasty puncture wound when you throw one up in the air as hard as you can then being the last one to move out the circle proves to be a pretty poor life decision.

hold my beer!

I think it was a "torcher" game for amusement.
The 2 player's victim's neck etc held to the ground with wire hoops.
Each stake is driven in the ground in front of their genitals. (horse shoes ring a 2nd bell?)
Complete kit on a little cart even.
Guess what the balls were for?
Notice, everything is easily done with that handy Mallet.

What games we played as a child ,
were for entertainment and revenge.
Am I wrong?
Fuck what you've been told. lol

lol. Nah, you are right on it man!

This was all pre-internet stuff.

IMAGINE if we had video cameras on our phones back in the day.

We did "hold my beer" just for a small group of friends and good laughs, not likes and internet fame.

i have it figured out.
The game formed a Cross.
2 hoops in line, at a "golden ratio" distance apart (close enough to perform a "Croquet!" and a free shot on his opponents balls,
represented by his "Stunt man".
These are Roman military or Templar origin or older. Us kids showed up, with no supervision after the bodies were drug off.
We played in the bloody mess. All we had was "c" shaped pcs on ground,
stiff like wire ropes, driving stakes/pegs, rocks/cannon balls, and the "wooden" mallets.(key) Gingiss Kaehn?
From a military encampment stories? There's horses involved. lol
I'll bet they handed down by the games somehow.
Horseshoes would have been brutal,
if you are spraddled out, tied to a stake.

When you have a word that means "Ball and Hammer"?
I wanna know wth happened
This is just some of the weird shit you'll
find, if you got a brain "hardwired" like mine.
I look at things through different lenses.
It does make you think.
How many games and such were rooted in torcher? lol
Enough of those thoughts, time for another subject.
