1991 - jumped a milk crate ramp with the woods slat on a 3 speed. no helmet. The slat flipped off and I fell face first on the pavement. before I jumped there were 4 people on the street, when I woke up the street was packed and the ambulance was there. I have no idea how long I was knocked out

If there were camera phones back then there would have been some Evil Knievel wreck footage of some of the spills I've taken.

its funny cuz its true

 

[godofwine]

What do y'all know about "Any Bounce"? We used to play this in the streets of the neighborhood. All you need it was a bat and a tennis ball... Because tennis balls were less likely to break windows. If you caught the ball on a bounce it was your turn to bat

 

[godofwine]

Lol, I figured it. I grew up in Cleveland, too. 119th & Miles, then Lakeview & Euclid. I used to hang with my boy Ricardo who stayed on 107th and we used to played down at DuPont, so there was a POS basketball hoop at the end of 107 where he stayed

One time on a road trip I said I was sleepy, maybe about 5 years of age and pops said put him in the back window to lay down. I was up there for about 30 seconds that shit felt unsafe as a 5 year old, thus the reason for me remembering that shit.


Also, having to say RAW wasn’t in our vocabulary it was automatic and saying to cover up was to protect oneself from a pregnancy.

 

[KoolJay]

We used to take old Matresses and line them up and flip on them. Now what's funny is that we would stack them 2 high and have the one with springs at the end right before the last single Mat, so u can get some height on the last "Walk out". Funny thing is talking to my boys, we don't remember no one throwing away Matresses but some was ALWAS around...

I remember that after a blizzard the schools would push all the snow in a big ass hill on the playground, we would be on that Mfer playing " King of the Mountain" and best believe when that shit turned from snow to ice somebody was going to get fucked up with a busted lip, concussion or broke arm...we was on it like:

or we was sliding in the STREET thru 4-5 inches of snow on

or a

if we couldnt find somebody with a sled

We had a big assed hill right next to my middle & high school that was also across the lil creek next to the municipal pool.

When we discovered sledding from our pops or older bros sled, we got to 'dogfighting' where u snatched that back blade of the next man'a sled, or a hold of your wagon or garbage pail cap & tried to fling your ass while flying down the snowy & icy hill.

Some kats would stand up while holding the strings during the dogfights.

We got crazy busy with that

Wild lil niggas fucked around & destroyed my Pops' old as sled until we went home & rebuilt that bitch with screws & reinforcements & back @ it the next day
That creek emptied out to a big assed pond that we played Tron on when frozen.
Tron was a game where kats would ride a bike sometimes with skates on,
on ice,
& kats in the middle would lay down in the center of the icy pond with bike chains sliding them shits @ the bikers riding around the circumference.

Kats also made our own BMX jump track down a dirt path by the creek where we'd jump over each other with the dirt ramp.

We used to fuck each other up but never bloodied or role bones.

Yrs later a kid I went to school with who wasn't taking his meds fucked around & had a seizure then died in that bitch....
