wow. this one must be really bad. a whole day w/no annos or votes. |
|

Although not widely known to exist, this was the best game played at the grocery store when I was a wee lad of just 15. |

Sounds like kick-the-can. |

With out the hiding, one person being it and having a reason to shout "all ye all ye all come free!". |

i never played kick the can. how do you
play? |
|
| |
thanks jutta. I see a little
similarity, except the 'can' is an
independant and mobile thing who s
not involved in the game by choice. and
what [chef] said. |

Actually, Wikipedia's definition of the game is different than the way I played. Wow... I've never heard of it played that way. My friends used to kick a soda can around, playing a game similar to what's described in the post, and we called it "kick the can". I had no idea there were rules to the game... |
|
| |
btw, I didn't bone this, because I always enjoyed the game and it *is* a good idea. I just thought it was too similar to my old childhood game to get a bun for originality. |

'Kick The Can' = 'Block 1-2-3' or 'Blockie'. Best played with the can replaced by the front door of the most miserable sod on the estate. |

this is filed under the wrong sport. its nothing like soccer, its more like golf. |
|
| |
po, it's nothing like golf. They're running around trying to kick the reciept into the dustpan, while the opposing team tries to prevent it from getting into the dustpan. It's (if I understand this idea properly) basically mobile soccer. |

the author didn't mention kicking. the cleaner has a stick like implement. |

//the author didn't mention kicking// |
|

Yeah, but it has 'soccer' in the title so kicking's a given thing. There's also mention of a team defending, and the offence trying to score which is nowt like golf but a lot like football. bleh, maybe more clarification in the idea's main text could help? |
|

I'm sorry but americans just don't *get* soccer (a bit like the late departed UnaBubba) - it's the beautiful game - not flicking a bit of paper into a waste paper bin - now That is Golf. |
|
| |
I dunno, some do, some don't. I've been positively surprised by the quality of footy coverage on one of the North American networks. 3 live premiership matches every Saturday ain't bad. Would be nice if the coverage hung around for the post match interviews though. |

As a kid I used to play footy with a tennis ball, piece of rolled up paper, socks rolled up, large stones, anything available (almost going off into Ron Manager type reminiscing). |

you nailed it on the head [boy]. I thought the kicking would be implied by use of the word soccer. given i am a fat oafish american who has no vested interest in soccer, so im sorry if i offended any of you brits out there. |

to which the goal is attached. he does not have to involve him self directly in the game either. he can goon doing his work if he chooses. |
|
| |
nothing like golf really. |
