1. Don't hit me with that big rubber ball!
Just make a doggie balloon out of a rubber instead!

(I have no idea how, but that was the first thing that came to mind...)

2. I don't think they had that one way back when I was a young 'un.
Is it something like dodge-ball?

4. We called that "Kill Ball"
I actually won a game of that, one of the few times our teacher get beyond the normal Dodge Ball boundaries. :-)

6. We used flat volleyballs
They hurt more. :evilgrin:

The only sucky part was Mike Deshields and I wore glasses, so we had to wear these cumbersome catchers' half-masks to protect 'em. And, gee, there's nothing like a bunch of metal and leather strapped to your head to make you look like even more of a geek. :eyes:

But overall, yeah, Bombardment rocked. Hey, it was a lot better'n runnin' laps.
