Ditto! I still test my knees when I see one on the ground and pick it up if it isn’t too too dirty. Of course we shot marbles, pitched baseball cards, and other games we made up. The girls always beat me in Jacks though! On a good day of winning, we would bike off to the penny candy store about a mile away. The losers went too and we all shared the spoils. You could fill a small bag for a dime. 😊. I guess that’s where I got my original yearn for VP. ( The Games ). FAA won’t remember most of this, but he may like this one……On a particularly good day of pitching baseball cards, ( not our good ones ), I racked up 75 cents. We all biked off to the neighborhood Pizza shop ( a very rare treat ) and ordered a small Tomato pie with grated cheese for 60 cents that we shared. We had enough for 2 Pops and I had a dime left over. The owner’s daughter was our server. I think we were both 11 or 12 at the time. I gave her the dime. She was very nice and cute as well. Anyway, 5 years later in High School, we ended up in the same study hall and she remembered. We dated a couple of times and remained friends to this day!
Sorry FAA for partly hijacking your thread. Kinda thought it would fit in with both feasting and gambling too!!
