Strange Games - party games, childhood games

Montegue Blister introduces himself as follows: "I am passionate about party and childhood games. Not just boring pass the parcel but unusual, even bizarre games like Snapdragons, Walking Trippy, Mouchard."

Take Lemon Golf, - a most refreshingly Junkyard-like game played with lemons and walking sticks. Lemons! How joysomely unpredictable and party-worthy. Sure, you can use yardsticks instead of walking sticks. Or umbrellas even (collapsed, probably). But what other game can you think of that combines wacky object-whacking with lemonade preparation.

O, yes, there's the oddly Prui-like Mouchard, and, as advertised, Walking Trippy, and, should you wonder, the curiously dangerous children's game of Snapdragons.

This fellow Blister is clearly a fellow in spirit - an advocate and collector of primarily pointless games, played for the fun of it. And hence, a valued resource for us each and all.

And then there's Strange Games - the Videos

While I applaud the inherent wackiness of golf with a lemon, I don't approve of the inherent wastefullness. Better would be, say, lemon peels, or lemon pits (for tabletop golf), or some other would-be-thrown-out thing.

And I, though giving the virtual equivalent of a standing ovation to your eco-sensitivities, must point out that lemon-wacking is a perfect precursor to lemonade-making. And then there's this thing you make by sticking a candy straw into a lemon for which much lemon rolling is a prerequisite. I was remiss in pointing this out. I thank you for yours.
