I love the game we called "men"...

If you want your "cover beer" to strike that ball harder, just put some candle wax under the cover

And there you go, you have a great player...

As for the catapult....

I was a bit adventurous then

I saved money for a long time back in the days before I could get one for myself...

The plan was to use it to shoot down birds from a neighbor's tree but I ended up breaking the neighbor's glass window 🪟🪟

And I ran away ASAP...... May God forgive me

No 1 is popular it is named okoto. Play in most school those days in year 70s. I spin the bottom the biro cover and if the blue battery cover tumbles andcover itself on the ground then I won and I have to strike you back palm for the number of covering. Good old days forever!!!!!!!

Who remembers nailing metal tire tube valves with a small nail to a handy piece of wood, filled with the tip of a few matchsticks and a bigger nail inserted, hit hard on the wall to make a loud banging sound with visible explosion?

Re: If You Have A Story To Tell About These....you Are A Living Legend by deavicky(m):
We call the first one okoso in my domain, that brings me to remember my class mate in ADSS Bori camp.He is called Tururuu. Back then we use to play a game if you roll it and cut it and it close and the next man fail to do same, he will place his hand on the floor and u will use the Okoso to knock his hand. If Tururuu knocks us blood will come out but when knock him, his skin will open but blood won’t come out. So my friend noticed it and said is high time we stop because Tururuu does not have blood and he is waisting our blood. No be enh Tururuu hear am come begin fight me and my friend, saying why we say he no get blood. But truly it is obvious that he does not have blood.

I miss the good old days. This was the period were 99% of boys would graduate from secondary school as virgins and 95% of girls will also graduate as virgins. Unlike now wey be say na about 14% dey graduate as virgins from secondary school. If you doubt me, ask your babe.
This was also a time where 99% of DNA test dey positive because most men married virgins(fresh) women unlike now wey over 50% na negative because most people are forced to manage leftovers as partners.
This was a time when money get value and children had morals unlike now wey nudity and and toxicity don spoil the world.
This was a time when people dey go village go marry because we had good babes over there, unlike now wey single mothers full village pass city. Abeg the list too plenty jare!!!

What do I even know sef aside enlightening my fellow men nationwide with the good news of DNA test
Where do you get these your data from?

My granddad sent my aunt to school, and she got pregnant.

He swore never to send any of his other daughters to school. After decades, he relented, and sent another of my aunts to school. She too got pregnant.

It is what it is.

The third game holds a special place for me – I played it until I close to graduating from high school. Then, my dad and I would often have disagreements about my gaming habits.

Even to this day, he finds it hard to believe I've moved on from it, and he'll occasionally call just to cheekily ask about if I’m still playing the game. It always end in laughter, making for a truly memorable experience

I wasn’t really a fan of catapults smiley

I be 1990 baby wey grow up for Lagos, the thread brought back those memories, I remember more self. Our experiments with batteries, red and green miniature bulbs with radio cassette propellers inspired us to make moving cars with cut dunlop slippers (flip flops) and sharpened broomsticks. Those days of collecting knockouts (banger) and going to war with the opposite house until your opponents run out of bangs. Those days you won't have to spend a dime and you go see babe around your hood wey fit die for you lol.
