If you play let me know, but why do some guys play Nut Ball?

Question

So some...actually most of the guys at my school play this game where they hike up thier pants all around thier...parts...and toss a full water bottle at each other. Penalty shots are awarded if one a player flinches or catches the bottle in mid-air. Players are allowed to catch the bottle only of it will hit them in the face or if it will land behind them. No over hand shots are allowed. the game is kind of played till the death...or till one player forfeits.

the question is why? this game CLEARLY hurts. and it's not just specific to my school, guys play it at soccer camp and other places it seems. if you play let me know.

Answer 1

It has to do with the well-known phenomenon of IQ degradation. specifically, the more men that get together, the lower the collective IQ. when the group trends younger, there is an exponential drop in IQ, usually of a factor of 10 or more for each 3 years under 40.

The short answer? People can be morons.

Answer 2

Is Nut Ball the same as pocket pool? No I guess not.
You're describing a male bonding ritual. We aren't real touchy-feely types, most males, and we need to interact and bond on some level, and things like this are the best that our teenage pea-sized brains can come up with. I grew up to be a productive, happy member of society, but when I was a teenager 40 years ago, we had Sparky the Pole. Please don't ask. My friends and I still laugh about it. Hope that helps.

Answer 3

People are idiots, of course!

At our school some guys just grab each other there and try to hurt as many other guys. though i am not one that plays, I RUN!

Answer 4

I am very scared that the guys are going to be our future oneday!

Answer 5

never heard of such a game, so I guess that means that I don't play it.
