Who enjoyed snowball fights when you were younger? Who still does?

I do not know who first invented the snowball and weather or not t was for fun or as a weapon - probably not very effective.
I enjoyed building snow-forts when there was enough snow and enjoyed making snowballs and packing them down to almost ice balls as we lobbed them at each other. Sometimes we would go out to the streets and snowball a trash truck or some other big truck.
I expect many others have fond memories of throwing snowballs and less fond memories of being smacked with a snowball :-)
Ladies and gentlemen did you participate in snowball production or fights?

I grew up in Florida, except for a couple years in DC Metro, so snowballs were out. Now I live in AZ, so they're NORMALLY out. However, I discovered something rather magical that my kids love that can make up for it (sorta) -

SGT Jeremiah B. Our town was 5Kish and plenty of snow. I remember 40inches at one time. Love a snowy day. It is quiet and the roads are less busy and with your favorite, amazing.

Snowball fights...was able to do this in Japan. It was the only place I lived while growing up where it snowed. I lived in NYC...but was older and never threw snowballs there.
