Games with real blood

Trust me guys, it's harder than it sounds.

Your oldest will have a ball, plus some great memories.

As a kid who once tried to give his cat a bath, I have no doubt. Even domesticated animals have that raw wild strength when they decide they've had enough of your bad ideas.

I tried giving a cat a bath once. Kept getting hair on my tongue.

Does pro wrestling count??? Like former wrestler Tommy Rogers always told me, getting color the hard way was always the best.

They have that now for children's rodeo... it is called mutton busting.

Looks real safe doesn't it?

METHOD #1:

1. Know that although the kitty cat has the advantage of quickness and lack of concern for human life, you have the advantage of strength. Capitalize on that advantage by selecting the battlefield. Don't try to bathe him in an open area where he can force you to chase him. Pick a very small bathroom. If your bathroom is more than four feet square, we recommend that you get in the tub with the cat and close the sliding-glass doors as if you were about to take a shower. (A simple shower curtain will not do. A berserk cat can shred a three-ply rubber shower curtain quicker than a politician can shift positions.)
2. Know that a cat has claws and will not hesitate to remove all the skin from your body. Your advantage here is that you are smart and know how to dress to protect yourself. We recommend canvas overalls tucked into high-top construction boots, a pair of steel-mesh gloves, an army helmet, a hockey face-mask, and a long-sleeved flak jacket.
3. Use the element of surprise. Pick up your cat nonchalantly, as if to simply carry him to his supper dish. (Cats will not usually notice your strange attire. They have little or no interest in fashion as a rule.)
4. Once you are inside the bathroom, speed is essential to survival. In a single liquid motion, shut the bathroom door, step into the tub enclosure, slide the glass door shut, dip the cat in the water and squirt him with shampoo. You have now begun one of the wildest 45 seconds of your life.
5. Cats have no handles. Add the fact that he now has soapy fur, and the problem is radically compounded. Do not expect to hold on to him for more than two or three seconds at a time. When you have him, however, you must remember to give him another squirt of shampoo and rub like crazy. He'll then spring free and fall back into the water, thereby rinsing himself off. (The national record for cats is three latherings, so don't expect too much.)
6. Next, the cat must be dried. Novice cat bathers always assume this part will be the most difficult, for humans generally are worn out at this point and the cat is just getting really determined. In fact, the drying is simple compared with what you have just been through. That's because by now the cat is semi-permanently affixed to your right leg.
7. You simply pop the drain plug with your foot, reach for your towel and wait. (Occasionally, however, the cat will end up clinging to the top of your army helmet. If this happens, the best thing you can do is to shake him loose and to encourage him toward your leg.) After all the water is drained from the tub, it is a simple matter to just reach down and dry the cat.

In a few days the cat will relax enough to be removed from your leg. He will usually have nothing to say for about three weeks and will spend a lot of time sitting with his back to you. He might even become psychoceramic and develop the fixed stare of a plaster figurine.You will be tempted to assume he is angry. This isn't usually the case. As a rule he is simply plotting ways to get through your defenses and injure you for life the next time you decide to give him a bath. But at least now he smells a lot better.





METHOD #2:

1. Thoroughly clean the toilet.
2. Add the required amount of shampoo to the toilet water, and have both lids lifted.
3. Obtain the cat and soothe him while you carry him towards the bathroom.
4. In one smooth movement, put the cat in the toilet and close both lids (you may need to stand on the lid so that he cannot escape).
CAUTION: Do not get any part of your body too close to the edge, as his paws will be reaching out for any purchase they can find.
5. Flush the toilet three or four times. This provides a 'power wash and rinse' which I have found to be quite effective.
6. Have someone open the door to the outside and ensure that there are no people between the toilet and the outside door.
7. Stand behind the toilet as far as you can, and quickly lift both lids.
8. The now-clean cat will rocket out of the toilet, and run outside where he will dry himself.

Do not forget the "Cage and Hose" technique as well. But that makes me sad to think about.

And then there's the kitty spa....

We played a lot of sports oriented games.

1. Smear the Queer,twenty five kids ganging up on the odd man with the ball.

2. Battle Basketball................If your not unconcious,it's not a foul.

3 Battle Dodgeball.............thirty kids on each side of the gym.

4 Protecting the Fort..........Protecting the snowfort with snowballs. Ever get hit with a iceball?

I won't even mention the things we did that was dangerous!

[the sound]

I've played king of the hill and red rover... red rover was a lot of fun but king of the hill seemed like just excuse to beat me up.

[TomH]

Speaking of games with real blood. Anyone here like football ? NFL style?

I would really like to see some pre-season games between some NFL teams vs. some top NCAA teams.

I believe that would be some interesting and exciting games.

[teddyv]

I'm surprised HisLeast has not already mentioned street hockey. Especially with old foam mattresses for pads. We played that at school every recess and lunch from September to May.

[Clavicula_Nox]

Kids in my neighborhood played "Soldier" (Self-Explanatory) and "Bikes" (Riding around aimlessly, or trying to catch another kid to knock him off his bike).

[RabbiKnife]

Vacant lot football!!! No helmet, no pads. Flags are for girls.

It's even better if you have brothers on opposite teams.

It's even better if you have GIRLS on the opposite team.
