But were you tapping him?

This stuff went on at my jr high in the sixties. Back then we called it "racking." There was also the towel-popping in the locker room.

Dunno if they're hitting harder now, but you definitely had to watch your family jewels when I was in school.

Racking went on at my HS in the ‘70s. Most guys viewed it as a prank but some guys didn’t like it and threw punches at the perp. Like you, I don’t know how the prank is done differently with todays kids. I never did know of any of our students needing surgery or med attention.

Got kicked in the nuts by a joker but it wasn't a game like this. We called it getting “racked” also. Got me between first and second period classes. He was laughing and thought it was pretty funny along with his friends.

I clubbed him down out back of the cafeteria at lunch with a baseball bat. He wasn't laughing then. I was considered a nerd and he never reported it cause it would have embarased him. He also never messed with me again
