Childhood favorites

Oh, sledding. That's a good one.

 

[Blitty]

Micro machines were the shit.




Soap box cars.

 

[MrX]

Superballs could be surprisingly fun. Those things sure bounce high. Sometimes you'd have to chase them down for more than a block.

tree house, I never had one.

I always became friends with the kid in the neighbor hood who had one.

my kid someday is getting a tree house whether he wants one or not.

We had a crabapple tree and would throw them at cars. One time this guy came out of his house to find his truck bombed with at least 50 crabapples. He chased us around for blocks and sat outside of my buddies house waiting for us for at least half an hour as we hid in their garage and watched him.

So I guess crabapples.

My friend Julie had a sweet tree house, a rope swing that you could jump from the tree house on to, a zip line, a double-pulley lift to get to the top of the zip line. It's amazing we never killed anyone. I practically lived there.

we made a scarecrow kind of thingy and would lay it down on the road and then would have someone yell for help as a car was going by. the car would stop get out and we would laugh and sometimes get chased.

Agreed on bottlerocket wars this one nut used to shoot them out of his teeth, he wan't the best at crunching ROI it never did blow up in his face though. Similar slide that went across pond.

ACTION PARK remains LEGEND. Cuncussions, stitches on regular basis for others, none here though.
