Lawn? I remember 'lawn', I think. That's where you drink beer in the summer while playing bocce, right?

Funny you say that, I just broke out the bocce set last weekend.
I can't wait for the weather to get nicer.

Do you play 'anything-goes, mongol horde style' bocce, or 'on the pitch' sissy bocce? We have a rule that everyone has to drink whenever somebody's score adds up to an odd number.

About three hours! I was hanging around getting p!ssed off about being censored! lol
Anyway, Mongol Horde Anything Goes rules (MHAG) is when you can throw the 'p' or object ball anywhere. The only rule is if the resulting round is going to cause damage to something (Ask Sasquatch about my eaves-troughs, no ****!) Of course the drink on odd score rule applies as well.
Kinda sounds like Full Contact Bocce we play at the firehouse . . . throw the 'p' over the firehouse (3 storys) and then play from there . . .It's usually better for us to start the game in the parking lot. Oh and if you arent paying attention the other guys are allowed to smack ya . . . where ever they make contact is the rule.

Only thing I know about bocce is that we once saw some retirees playing it as we were driving through the RV section on the way to tent camping...

My Friends : Let us not forget Olympic style badminton and the gentlemanly ( and ladylike ) game of cutthroat croquet. Both of those can get pretty nasty. Mrs. Monkey once came out to the badminton court and found the little Monkies playing against me with a beer bottle each in their hands. I had to explain handicapping to her. Note: Children's bottles were empty. It was a matter of principle.

That reminds me.....anyone know where I can get a set of lawn jarts? It's about time to teach the 4 year old to play.

I'll bet half the people on this forum never got the extreme pleasure of ever putting a jart through their buddies foot, like I did.

Damn! That's the risks you gotta take, though. It keeps their reflexes sharp.

Jarts! I loved playing jarts! When I graduated college a friend of mine brought over her parent's set from their basement. It probably sat down there for 25 years and was used never or used maybe once. Unfortunately the plastic got to be so brittle they lasted only a couple games and had no more fins....at least we got a couples uses out of them. It sucks that a few idiots have to ruin jarts for the rest of us. The people who get a jart in the head.........isn't that just natural selection?
