the last kid was always a great athlete and essentially the winner .... we also used to play smear the queer #muckle without any thought that queer meant gay.
later my mom made us call it smash the potato. and zombie tag where anyone who was tagged became it leaving the fastest kid running from every other kid on the playground. did I go to Ayn Rand academy for tots?
We also played "smear the queer" without any knowledge of what " queer" was referring to. What ended up happening is that whoever had the ball would throw it intentionally to whomever they wanted "smeared". The problem arises when everyone dislikes the same person, who is usually the slowest or physically weakest or the "oddball". -not cool. This was playground stuff though and was never in a gym class. The kids playing didn't have to. Mean things happened. I have a good amount if guilt from my behavior in middle school as well as a good amount of emotional scars. It's a difficult time.
I think a competitive smear the queer or better muckle league would be cool as hell.
the winner would be the one that held the ball the longest. the ultimate free-market game.
22 players everyone pays 20 bucks to play 20 minute game.
players get 10 dollars for every minute they can hold on to the ball. played on a an arena football pitch.
them is all the rules.
