<blockquote> Asses Up Hand Ball(If you have to ask you don't want to know) </blockquote> EVERY day after school, at least 15 kids playing this game. I never see kids playing it today, then again I don't really hang out at schoolyards. <blockquote> <blockquote><blockquote>Stick Ball(Both in the street and one on one against a brick wall with the strike zone colored in with chalk)</blockquote> We would take a wiffle ball bat and fill it w/ wet newspaper to give it some weight. The ball was either the pink spalding/hard spalding/blue classic. My boy and I would wake up to plat at 8:00 am and play 9 innings against each other. The strike zone was a spray painted box on the wall that the older cats made in the early 70's. We would replenish the box erry summer. Street baseball was my first mo fuckan sport for real. I had an article on certain hand postions for certain pitches. I fuckin mastered the slider and was killin my homie w/ that and my split finger fastball. Then I moved on to the sinker.Maaaaaann dont get me started. </blockquote> </blockquote> We used to load wiffle bats too! Duct tape around the bat, or cut the bottom and load it with nails or marbles, anything that would rush to the "barrel" when you swung. Now I play softball with a bunch of over 30 year olds. Next year I might play over 30 soccer. Leisure kings stand up!!! Not really a street game, but did anyone ever have bottle rocket and roman candle fights around July 4th when you were a kid? Schoolyard looked like Baghdad, kids running around with burnholes in one of the 5 or 6 shirts they had on.
