Not It! Mass. Elementary School Bans Tag

It like in Oban theirs this game called British Bull Dogs. Where one person goes out and the other all stand against wall fence ect. The person who out calls out a person name that person can either run across or call stampede and everyone runs across. The person who out would then try to catch people.

Rockfield tried to ban it, but in the end they realized they couldn't so let carry on.

Vernon -- they banned it at our school too. Everyone still did it though. British Bulldog rules as a game. It was better at Primary School though, because nobdy was as rough. When we got into secndary school, you were getting rugby tackled.

I demand that Lama change his sig!

And I think that principal should be slapped.

I declare my sig changed!

I propose we construct a new game to replace tag.

We'll call it "Chicken." It will be a child adaptation of the popular car game. One kids starts on one side, the other on the other side. On three, they'll take off, and run as fast as they are able along a single line. Whoever deviates from the line is chicken.

The inevitable result will be that kids won't be tempted to try this with cars when they grow up.

Ten minutes of tag will teach kids more about physical education and physics then some high school students will learn in a month.
