Axis & Allies. The tough part was finding enough like minded friends to play. We had a group of us that got together after school or on a weekend here and there.

SFC Drake,

Dodgeball was the best game ever! It was a great way to express oneself without hurting anyone. Scrabble was fun, too.

1. Fighting for no reason
2. Baseball
3. Water gun fights which eventually evolved into shooting each other with bb guns (no more than 2 pumps allowed)

SFC Drake, if we ever run into each other I challenge you to a game. But I only play for keeps!

But, to answer the question. Anything outside related. My daughter asked me the other day how I got the scars on my knees? I told her I got them falling off my bike. She called me a klutz. I told her we would try to jump the 7 foot wide irrigation ditch behind the neighborhood. Afterwords she called me a dumb klutz.
