Destroying a child’s tesicles is no game. Especially today, with the one-child family. Parents are losing future generations.

This has been a popular game in Japan for over 2 generations.

Search term: Kancho

The kids find it especially dangerous/thrilling to do it to tall Westerners who go there as foreign second language teachers in the school systems.

I guess that’s the advantage with those real baggy pants that hang way low...lots of empty space around the sack to provide a lessening of the taps. If the crotch is around your knees, the sack is harder to locate?

Oh, puleeze. This has been going on since probably the beginning of time. Not saying it’s the right and proper thing to do but that many guys think it is a great joke.

The boys should now wear a cup at school?

But then, I knew of two guys that before heading out to the bar, would install a cup and put a mouth guard in their shirt pocket.

In the sixth grade, a classmate, for a joke, swung his briefcase into my, er, sack. I knocked out one of his upper molars.

Not a bad kid, actually. But bad idea.

We played this game in junior high except we called it 'spotting.'

Actually, two of the guys in our group played it to the rest of us. When we were around them, you literally had to cover up that area. But they were teammates so all we could do was hit back. We couldn't de-friend them.

This is not a new “game”.
Kids usually quit when they find out what payback feels like.
