[challenge entry] Now I think about it....


I'm not sure anyone else played this. Or called it 40-40. Anyway, one team had to get to a tree with was base and scream 40-40 and they were safe, and the other team had to catch them before they got there. It was all good clean fun. Apart from all the beatings you got if you caused your team to lose, that is.

# Not as gay
as some of the games we played.

Anal Rape, for example. That was pretty gay.

# Yeah
That was pretty gay when you look back.

I was going to make a "I'll show you mine, if you show me yours" pic but source images are difficult to find.

# we called it "skilly"
it got banned after we knocked a wall of the bike shed down during a particularly fiercely contended game.

Nice poster too.

# I remember plaing that...we callled it 40 40 home.
But the weirdest game off that I ever played was once in Lesvous (greek island) and some how me and a few english/french and german kids managed to understand each other and get along. I made friends with a german caled garfield/felix.. some cat name anyway.

that was about 12 years ago
